Why Choose The Cold Process?
At The Cold Process, we believe that good things take time. Our soap is crafted using the gentle cold process method, where no heat is added, and each bar is cured for over 30 days. We carefully select the finest oils, herbs, and beauty ingredients to create a soap that leaves your skin feeling clean, refreshed, and hydrated—never tight or dry. By strengthening your skin's natural barrier, we aim to nourish and support your skin to help it thrive on its own.
What Sets Our Cold Process Soap Apart
Made with Soft Water to be Gentle on Skin
Our soaps are uniquely suited to sensitive skin. In Japan, where soft water is common, our cold process soap is crafted to be gentle on the delicate skin typical of the region. Soft water is less likely to irritate, making it perfect for those prone to allergies and sensitive skin conditions.
Premium Ingredients
Using only premium ingredients like rice bran and sake lees—traditional Japanese skincare treasures—our soap naturally addresses various skin concerns such as dryness, dullness, and sensitivity. Every wash treats your skin to a touch of Japan's best-kept beauty secrets.
Handcrafted with Care by Skilled Artisans
Our soap is made with meticulous attention to detail in a workshop where temperature and humidity are carefully controlled. Each bar is hand-poured, hand-cut, and hand-stamped, resulting in unique soaps that retain their ingredients' natural properties. From body and face soaps to hair care, baby care, and even pet-friendly options, we offer over 30 varieties to meet your lifestyle needs.
Thoughtfully Made for You and the Planet
Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond the bar. Our soaps are biodegradable, breaking down in water within about an hour, so they return to nature without harm. We also skip the plastic packaging, helping reduce marine waste and contributing to a cleaner, healthier planet.
