I’m thankful you told us that natural soaps are known to be gentle on sensitive skin because of the absence of harsh chemicals and fragrances that can most likely cause irritation or allergic reactions. The soap I bought recently gave me a bad allergic reaction and caused me to have rashes on my arms for a week, so I need to switch to a new one soon that won’t affect my sensitive skin badly. I’ll keep this in mind while I look for where I can shop for scented natural soaps here in New Orleans soon. https://eandeessentials.com/
