Marseille Soap Flakes for Laundry, Natural | 750g

La Corvette's Marseille soap shavings are made from 100% vegetable oils, in Marseille, using the traditional cooking process. These shavings are guaranteed to be free of colouring agents, perfumes and preservatives. This product allows you to wash all delicate textiles (silk, wool, lace...) extremely gently. Thanks to their hypoallergenic formulation, Marseille soap shavings are particularly recommended for cleaning babies' clothes. By dissolving the shavings in very hot water, this product is used to make its own laundry. It is a natural and effective alternative to all synthetic detergents.

The color of the soap can vary from white to dark beige depending on the production batches because of the vegetable oils used from one cauldron to another. This gives our soaps the authenticity of a product made from natural materials and does not alter the quality of the finished product.

Natural composition validated by ECOCERT

Our Marseille soap shavings are 100% natural. They are certified ECODETERGENT by Ecocert Greenlife according to the ECOCERT standard available on http://detergents.ecocert.com.
