Product specifications Item description Item number 8718657192505 Product type Solid soap Country of origin Netherlands Environmental information about Werfzeep was created in 2009 from Evelien's love for old crafts and natural products. During a trip through Canada that she and Laurens made, she ended up on an idyllic family farm where, among other things, soap was made, with a ladle and a huge pan. The wooden house smelled like a fairytale and on the very first day Evelien helped make soap. To her surprise, this handmade soap, which was in the shower and by the sink, was soft and caring for her skin. Plagued with eczema from an early age, soap had been out of the question for years, but this soap turned out to be a completely different story than everything she had come across up until then and which mainly gave her tight skin. Soap made from oils is a completely different product than factory soap made from refined fatty acids, with additives such as foam improvers, synthetic perfumes and preservatives, from which the glycerine has also been skimmed off. This discovery was enough for Evelien to become completely fascinated by soap, the artisanal soap-making, all possible ingredients and the effect on the skin. She started developing her soaps in a historic wharf cellar on the Utrechtse Oudegracht. Now, eight years later, she works with a growing team in the beautiful soap studio on the Westerkade.
