It is entirely up to you! Some customers with heavily dyed hair like to condition their hair ends after shampooing to ease the combing process after.
4. Are your shampoos hypoallergenic?
We wouldn't call it hypoallergenic because we've never lab-tested it, only on friends and families. But if we're talking about fragrances and colors, then our shampoo bars are colored with plant powders and scented with pure essential oils. There are zero mica and synthetic colorants and fragrances.
4. Are your shampoos CGM-friendly?
Our shampoo bars love curly hair! They are formulated with gentle surfactants like SCI, designed to not weigh down your beautiful curls!
FAQ About Used Cooking Oils
1. Won't the soap smell of fish?
We get this question A LOT. And the answer is NO, the soap will not smell of fish, nor will it stink. The oils are filtered to ensure the residues do not remain in it. When the oil is combined with lye, the lye would have destroyed all the bacteria in it (that’s the beauty of soap, isn’t it? To break down bacteria and cause it to slide off from your hands when you wash with water), and when the mixture heats up during saponification, the scent would have been completely altered, turning the soap into an unscented one. So no, used cooking oil soap will not stink.
2. How can I donate my used cooking oil to Soapan Santun?
Soapan Santun is currently based in Setia Alam, Shah Alam. Drop us a WhatsApp and we will collect it from you if we’re in the vicinity!
3. Can I use the soap to wash my body?
Nothing will happen if you do it; in fact, my father once grabbed one without thinking and showered with it. We still laugh about it to this day—but no, we do not recommend washing your body with this soap because it is meant for cleaning ONLY. The coconut oil in it can make the soap a tad drying to your skin.
4. Can I use Multipurpose Soap to wash clothes & vegetables?
Absolutely! We use Soapan Santun Multipurpose Soap to clean literally everything! Clothes, dishes, fruits and vegetables, tables, floors, oily cooker hood, sticky residue on surfaces, stubborn stains… The sky is the limit!
FAQ About Soapan Santun Balms
1. Can I use your body balms on my lips?
We do not recommend using the body balms on your lips as they could sting a little.
2. What's the difference between Calendula Balm and Gromwell Root Balm?
They are both made with infused botanical oils, but Calendula Balm is more floral; Gromwell Root Balm is mintier.
3. Which one should I get if I have insect bites?
Gromwell Root Balm. It is also good for moisturizing your hands and soothing burns and inflammation.
4. I have eczema on my hands and my skin is peeling, which balm should I get?
Try Calendula Balm. It contains nourishing and healing essential oils and botanical oils to soothe dry, flaky skin.
5. Can I apply the balm directly to the wound?
You can, but do not apply near the eyes, mouth, nose, or genitals. The balms are for external applications only.
