Renowned along the Mediterranean basin for its healing and strengthening properties, Olive Oil has been an essential part of skin care for centuries. In ancient Greece and Egypt, Olive Oil was treasured for its ability to cleanse the skin and relieve muscle pain. Rich and golden, Olive Oil rejuvenates and hydrates, evening out the skin’s texture and tone. This natural moisturizer is also celebrated and revered in ancient Moroccan bathing rituals, in which black soap with olive oil nourishes and smoothes the skin. Our soaps contain Saponified Organic Olive Oil to honor its classical use in Moroccan soap, and give your skin a natural, healthy glow.

For centuries, loofah has been a central part of Arabian bathing rituals. In the tradition of Moroccan Hammams, the loofah sponge scrubs the skin, lending the body a natural, healthy glow. Loofah is entirely organic and biodegradable, crafted by Mother Nature, and its slightly rough fibers expertly exfoliate, smoothing and rejuvenating your skin. Cleansing your body with loofah is a relaxing, peaceful experience which relieves tension and stress, leaving your skin silky and soft. At Ourika Soap, we incorporate natural loofah into every bar to preserve its gentle exfoliation, and make the luxury of Moroccan Hammam accessible to you.

Rhassoul Clay is extracted from the base of the Atlas Mountains, the only known source of this authentic Moroccan mud. For thousands of years, Berber women have treasured Rhassoul Clay as a natural beautifier, as its soft, silky texture cleanses and rejuvenates the skin. In traditional Moroccan Hammams, Rhassoul wrap infused with argan oil gently exfoliates and moisturises, clearing and toning the skin. Rich in minerals such as magnesium and silica, Rhassoul Clay promotes healing and regeneration, reducing blemishes or scarring, and giving your skin a radiant, healthy glow. We include Rhassoul Clay in many of our soaps as its nurturing, brightening qualities and authentic Arabian roots help make bathing a serene, relaxing and genuinely Moroccan experience.
