A refreshing bath at the start of the day is something that I never miss. Well, most of us love the same, but have you ever checked the soap you use? If you still use those chemical-laden options, it’s time to say bye to them and opt for natural, chemical-free, and organic handmade soaps. The good news is that we have quite a few best organic soaps in India!
Best organic handmade soaps in India
Bookmark this post, or just click on the links to make your purchases. Trust me, you won’t regret it! These nourishing and moisturizing soaps are chemical-free and gentle on the skin. Some of these soaps are perfect for kids, too. I have mentioned the same against the soaps that can be used for kids. These natural soaps are mild and moisturizing and have been created with a blend of essential oils and other toxin-free natural ingredients. So if you are looking for the best organic handmade soaps in India, your search has just ended! Here is my list of must-have natural soaps available in India. The brands have been listed in random order. Here is a look at some best organic soaps in India.
Omed Therapies
Explore a range of cold-pressed soaps for various skin types. From all skin types to targeted acne and more, their range of soaps is packed with the goodness of cold-pressed oils and organically derived essential oils that give you the burst of energy you need to kick-start your day! My all-time favorite is their Ananda soap, packed with the soothing fragrance of roses!
Juicy Chemistry
Juicy Chemistry has a range of soaps suitable for specific skin types. With a shelf life of 6 months, their range of soaps is packed with loads of nourishing butters, natural cold-pressed oils, and gentle clays. As I said, they also have a range of soaps for specific skin issues. Whether it is scarred skin or normal skin, they have something created just for you. Juicy Chemistry is a 100% certified organic brand that also sources ingredients that are ONLY certified natural and organic. This ensures that you are using only chemical-free products. Most soaps are made with certain fresh fruits, essential oils, natural exfoliants, anti-oxidant teas, and vegetable juices that aim to heal specific skin issues.
Priced from INR 500 and upwards, you’ll need to check the range of soaps. They do have a separate soap just for kids.
Forest Essentials
Luxurious skincare packed with the goodness of Ayurveda is what Forest Essentials is all about. Explore their range of soaps that are hand-made with cold-pressed oils and extracts of natural ingredients like bitter orange, sugar cane, and more. And the icing on the cake has to be their naturally fragrant soaps that are infused with botanically derived essential oils!
Fuschia
Fuschia has been in the market for a while and is present in almost every beauty box subscription. Fast gaining popularity for its range of products that include some fabulous scrubs, masks, and more, they also have a great range of handmade soaps that are made with 100% natural ingredients. The activated charcoal soap is one of my favorites in my home. The vegetable glycerin in the soap makes it a rich moisturizing soap that keeps your skin nourished and hydrated for a long time. Check the fruity range of the soaps as well that the kids would love to use! Priced from INR 250 and upwards, their bath soaps are ideal for men, women, and children.
Mountain Herbs
Their range of soaps is packed with the goodness of 20 different herbs, such as aloe vera, rose, neem, turmeric, tulsi, gooseberries, hibiscus, castor oil, rice bran oil, and coconut oil. All the materials used in their products are quality approved, hand-picked, and absolutely natural. They believe in a complete ingredient disclosure policy; you will see all the ingredients listed against the products. Apart from being 100% safe and toxin-free, these soaps are also gentle enough to be used by children. Very low on fragrance, each of their soaps is packed with its own set of advantages and benefits, combining to result in smoother, better moisturized, and more beautiful glowing skin.
Priced INR 275 onwards for a combination of 4 soaps.
You can also check their website for more products.
Alanna
Back in 2015, when Alanna was founded, they had one mission in mind – create a blend of beautiful recipes with exquisite ingredients from Mother Nature that would give your skin lots of love and nourishment. And that is what you see in their range of handmade and handcrafted products – lots of love! Why do I stress on natural and handmade soaps? Because they are good for your skin, choosing chemical-free products can be the best investment for your skin. Most of the soaps are suitable for men and women. I only wish that they listed all the ingredients on the website, too, so that people could make an informed choice about what they were buying.
Priced from INR 175 and upwards, their bath soaps are ideal for men and women.
Earthy Sapo
“Real soaps are not manufactured. They are crafted.” This was the first thing that caught my eye when I was browsing their website. First things first, I know this is a post on natural handmade soaps, but I have to slip in a line about the utterly fabulous shikakai and multani shampoo bar. It is pure love for your tresses! Now, back to their soaps.
Sheetal, the founder of Earthy Sapo has a range of soaps for every skin type and for everyone! Babies, kids, sensitive skin, normal, oily; you name it, and she has it. All the soaps have a shelf life of a year, but since there are no preservatives added, it would be nice if you use them right away instead of stashing them. Sheetal lists each and every ingredient used in the product along with specific directions, if any. Her scrubs and hair products are on the must-use list already.
Priced from INR 145 onward, not only is this value for money, but you have a wide range to choose from for your entire family!
Quinta Essentia Organics
Explore a range of Ayurvedic handmade soaps made with 100% organic coconut oil. Their soaps are a blend of nourishing oils, butters, and essential oils. I love to lather the soap and apply it on the skin rather than apply the soap on the skin. Made with natural ingredients and therapeutic grade essential oils, these soaps are going to be a luxurious pampering for your skin.
Priced from INR 99 for the bar soaps and INR 500 and upwards for the cupcake soaps, they are ideal for men & women.

Rajini,
Yes! Took me almost a month to get in touch with the brands and learn about them. Thank you so much for taking out time to read it and leave a comment as well. As someone who believes in eco-living, I work towards acquainting people with products that are good for them and their skin. I do hope that it reaches to more people and helps them choose better options. If you do know of brands with the same philosophy and who are the right fit on being organic and natural, please do drop me a mail and I would love to associate with them. I can be reached at pratsblog@gmail.com.

I have tried many organic soaps and shampoos, of which Mountain Herbs is my favourite,l have been using this for the past one year, Truly they are very low in fragrance but the fragrance is long lasting, and are very gentle on skin. My children are also using them. My daughter who has a very sensitive skin type, I found this very much suitable for her skin type
Pratibha says
Thank you for stopping by Dr. Sara. Yes, I use it for my boys too who will soon be 9. 🙂

Dear Pratibha
You have done a wonderful job in researching the organic products and telling the goodness to others.
I am using Mountain Herbs since 2014 for my family. Its so refreshing and safe on skins.
My both children have sensitive skins. I started using the soap for my daughter from 3 years old. Before I used soap free lotion for bath because of her dry skin until I found the mountain herbs soap. For my second child I started using the soap from two months of age.
I honestly recommend Mountain herbs soap for anyone who are really looking for organic products for their skin. Perfect for the whole family with different skin types.

I have regularly been using Mountain Herbs for last 5 years. I just can not imagine using another soap. Am so glad that this soap is becoming an established brand . They have range of handmade organic products, hand wash to detergents. All safe for the body, clothes and environment.

That’s huuuge list of handmade soaps. I don’t use harsh soaps now even for bathing, I look for natural and organic ones which don’t affect my skin.
