Sunflower oil is something you’ve probably had in your kitchen, or if not your parents’ kitchen. It’s the classic oil for a good old fry, but sunflower oil in soap has got some pretty amazing properties.

Sunflower oil is very high in Linoleic fatty acids. These kinds of fatty acids are incredible for moisturising the skin and are also known to make a silky lather that feels great. Like many other oils, sunflower oil is also useful for a hard bar of soap.

Finally, it’s high in vitamin E which is great for nourishing and protecting the skin.
