Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions

If you have any questions regarding our website and products, try checking our general questions FAQs to see if we haven’t answered it already. We have tried our best to cover most of the queries and sometime these queries are very general and need to be addressed in minimal period of time. So for your convenient we have tried to narrow down most of such questions.

What is the shelf life of soap?

All handmade soaps should be kept in a dry, cool, dark storage space to maximize its lifespan. Since our soaps are scented using essential oils, the scents will dissipate over time. When the soap is in use, make sure it has sufficient drainage to dry in between uses, as water will wash the soap away.
Our bar soaps won’t go bad, but over time may lose some of the potency of their scents, if mishandled. Number of washes too is subject to soap handling.

Taruna Soapery Soaps produce a rich, creamy, bubbly lather due to our specially formulated recipe. Less is More here.

Is your soap "Tearless"?

As in the case with all real soap, our soap is not “Tearless.” Our soaps produce a rich, creamy, bubbly lather due to our specially formulated recipe. So, its for external use only and thus to avoid contact with eyes.

I have sensitive skin, can I use your handmade soap?

We highly recommend you try handmade soap. All Taruna Soapery soaps are 100% handmade with soapy twist organic goat milk and glycerine base, America’s most authentic fragrances from brambleberry and Australian mica colors from My Mica Obsession. 100% safe to use in children and Adults. Our process produces a very mild soap. We think you will notice the difference. All soaps have chemical free base and safe to use for Hair, Skin and Face. Still if you find any trouble, stop the use, rinse your skin and seek your family physician immediately.

What if my soap has imperfections?

Handcrafted soap is processed and cut by hand; thus no two bars will be exactly alike. Temperature can make color appear slightly different from batch to batch, while design may also vary. Small pockets of air may form from a thick batter being poured. It does not affect the quality of the soap in the least! Color and scent may vary if kept in direct sun and soaked for too long.

Why is handmade soap better than store bought?

Store bought commercial soaps contain detergents and are technically not classified as soap at all! Taruna Soapery soap is simply an emulsification of oils and salt. Commercial soaps are usually extremely drying and irritating to the skin. Instead of keeping the natural moisturizing qualities in the soap, commercial companies choose to sell chemicals and leave the bar of soap with very little moisturizing properties. Taruna Soapery Soaps are made of goat milk and glycerine, all natural bases giving a natural gentle soap that helps in uplifting, calming and moisturising irritated polluted skin. It can help to relieve dry skin, reduce scars, minimise wrinkles and is also known to comfort skin rashes, prickly heat, itching, when used regularly round the year.

Are these soaps are safe for Kids?

Taruna Soapery Kids soaps are 100% safe to use in kids. All kids soaps are 100% handmade with soapy twist organic goat milk and glycerin base, authentic fragrances and Australian mica colors from my Mica Obsession. All kawaii erasers from Japan in Kids soaps are useable and safe for kids.

New Born Baby Powder Soap is specially SLS free, being safest to use among all soap categories. As you will try you will feel the difference.

Do you test your products on animals?

We NEVER test our products on animals. Our friends and family happily volunteer to be our testers. All Taruna Soapery Soaps are personally used by Ms Taruna Jain and her family.
