Forest Essentials Luxury Sugar Soap Sandalwood & Turmeric review & photos

Forest Essentials Luxury Sugar Soaps are made by hand using the old-fashioned cold process method in which the by-products like glycerine are retained. These luxury clear sugar soaps are made with pure cane sugar along with pure cold-pressed oils of coconut and almond. The Sandalwood & Turmeric variant contains sandalwood oil, renowned for its soothing and therapeutic qualities and turmeric paste, known for its antiseptic and skin brightening properties, together it creates a blend which purifies and refines the skin, giving it a sensual sheen.

A combination of Sandalwood & Turmeric have been used in India since ancient times to bring a glow to the complexion. I choose the Sandalwood & Turmeric variant for its skin brightening properties. The soap smells exactly of sandalwood oil and fresh raw turmeric, it smells exotic. The turmeric scent in this soap smells like a freshly pound wet turmeric root. The scent isn’t strong but does linger on my skin.

This soap is very gentle. Cane sugar and organic oils of coconut and almond added to the soap moisturise the skin. I can actually see my skin getting softer and hydrated after each bath. I donot get that dry skin feeling or tightness after using this soap. My skin actually feels moisturised as well as completely clean with this soap. This soap gives a really good foamy lather that rinses away clean.

This clear solid soap weighs 125 gs and fits comfortably in my palm. Since its a sugar-glycerine soap you need to store it in a dry place after each use as it tends to melt away.

The ingredients are all cold-pressed and organic. What makes this soap special is, all the listed ingredients are known to beautify the skin.

  1. I love that ingredient list. I can pronounce every ingredient. You really do have to take special care in keeping soaps like that in a dry place or they’ll disappear before you know it.

  2. The packaging on this is beautiful!
