Which is better for very dry skin?
Shea butter soap has a higher fat content that remains on the skin after washing, providing a more moisturising feel for very dry skin.

Do these soaps contain SLS?
No, all Healing Soil soap bases are made without SLS or parabens, relying on traditional soap-making methods for their lather.
