Castile Soap was originally created in Castile, Spain, in the Mediterranean
where Olive Oil has always been plentiful. It has sometimes been spelled Castille. A true Castile soap is always 100% Olive Oil, NOT 'mostly' Olive Oil. It is pure white and always softer than other soaps because it contains none of the other oils which contribute hardness to a bar of soap.
The gentleness of olive oil and its ability to act as a humectant and draw moisture from the air to your skin makes Castile soap wonderful to use. The bubbles of Castile Soap are low and plentiful.
