Mrs Martin’s Probiotic Allergy-Friendly Bar Soap
R75.00 – R600.00
Meet the first probiotic bar soap in South Africa. A bar of soap has never been this intelligent. Free and clear of any colourant or fragrance, BAR is handmade in the Mrs Martins labs using a cold process and incorporates the nourishing properties of coconut oil, aloe juice, and grapeseed oil.
The millions of clean, friendly, indigenous microbes enhance your first line of defence against disease but also cleans your pipes, drains, and tanks before it washes into our rivers. The indigenous microbes you wash down the drain will continue to remove nasties such as nitrates, nitrites and ammonia the natural way.
Ideal for use on sensitive, allergic or baby skin. It has been certified by the Allergy Foundation of South Africa, so you can rest assured it is safe for eczema, psoriasis and other allergic skin conditions.
Everything else in this soap is non-toxic and degrades within 28 days. Even the colourant and fragrance are hypo-allergenic and natural so that you can rest assured you are doing no harm. Neither to yourself nor to the environment.

Important Notes:
- This product is intended to be used as-is
- Probiotic, microbial cleaners take a few minutes to interact with the surface materials to “eat” / break down dirt, unlike their harsh chemical counterparts, you should not expect this product to clean right off the bat.
- Mrs Martin’s products are intentionally formulated to be low or no-foaming. This is because foaming agents are harmful to the environment, dries out your skin, and do not contribute to the cleaning power or effectiveness of the product (although many people still associate “lots of foam” with “superior cleaning power”, this is a misconception perpetuated by commercial cleaning brands and is not true).
