【Palestine's Last Soap Factory】1000 Years of Additive-Free Olive Soap|Nablus Soap (Pomegranate)|Clears Dullness & Exfoliates 100g

Nablus Soap, inherited since the 10th century CE, is not just a soap.
It is a "living heritage" that has preserved the region's life and culture, and is still protected by many people today.

For clear exfoliation and anti-dullness
Pomegranate soap, made by infusing pure extra virgin olive oil with pomegranate extract, enhances skin beauty. Suitable for all skin types, it helps with general anti-aging care. It exfoliates the skin, tightens it, and leads to a natural skin tone. The pomegranate scent is our No.1 bestseller.

Established in 1611: A long history and an unchanged recipe
Soap making has been carried out for over 400 years by the TuBeleh family, a soap-making family in Palestine. The soap is made using traditional kettle-boiling methods, and the manufacturing process and recipe, passed down through generations only within the TuBeleh family, are still used today.
It is the highest quality organic soap based on first-press virgin olive oil.

First-press virgin olive oil
Nablus Soap uses 100% organic virgin olive oil from the West Bank, Palestine, which is said to be the most luxurious, extracted from the first press. Therefore, it is rich in highly nutritious oleic acid and natural moisturizing ingredients.

  • Olive groves are being lost

    Olives are the raw material for Nablus Soap. However, the production environment is currently greatly affected, with olive groves being destroyed. Olive trees, which take many years to grow, do not easily recover once lost.

  • An environment where it's difficult to work freely

    People live their daily lives with restrictions on movement and work. They pass through numerous checkpoints every day, enduring time limits and constraints to work, yet they continue to preserve their traditions.

  • The Last Remaining Factory

    Only two soap factories remain today, a stark contrast to the many that once existed. Even a soap with a 1000-year history is not guaranteed to continue indefinitely.

Frequently asked questions

Nablus Soap FAQ

Can it be used on sensitive skin?

Made with simple ingredients, it can also be used by those with sensitive skin. For sensitive skin, we recommend "Natural Olive" or "Traditional Soap." *However, as individual results may vary, we recommend a patch test if you have concerns.

Can it be used on oily skin?

Yes, you can use it. It thoroughly removes excess sebum and dirt while retaining essential moisture. It is also recommended for those who want to balance their skin, as it reduces the feeling of tightness caused by overwashing.

Can this be used on infants and young children?

Yes, it can be used. Since it's an additive-free soap, many families use it. Please use it while observing your skin's condition.

Can I use it on my hair too?

Yes, you can use it as a shampoo as well. It might feel a bit stiff at first, but you'll gradually get used to it.

Does it have a scent?

Since no artificial fragrances are used, the scent is natural, derived from olives and natural herbs.

What is the proper way to store it?

Drain well and store in a well-ventilated place. It will last longer.

Why is there variation in color and shape?

Because some processes are performed by hand, each item will have individual differences. There are no issues with the quality.

Why haven't you renewed Ecocert certification?

This is due to the ongoing situation in the region, which has made it impossible for inspectors to visit. The manufacturing process and quality remain unchanged from before.

*The soap currently being delivered was manufactured in 2023, so it bears the Ecocert logo.

Isn't it more expensive than other soaps?

At first glance, it may seem expensive, but Nablus Soap is made primarily from olive oil, using a traditional method that has been passed down for 1,000 years, taking time and effort.

Furthermore, transportation from Palestine is currently very limited, and shipping costs are soaring.

Moreover, it can be used not only on the face but also on the entire body, allowing for full-body care with just one product.

Many people choose it for its ability to provide simple and efficient care.

What is the expiration date for soap?

Nablus Soap has no expiration date. It is a soap with low moisture content that slowly matures over time.
As it matures, it becomes harder, less prone to dissolving, and lasts longer.
Like wine, it is one of nature's blessings that increases in value over time.
Please store it in a cool, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, and high humidity.
