Beautiful Body Care KitPRINT THIS PAGE

SKU: 6813020

SKU# 6813020

Body care kit makes a great natural materials gift. Includes two bars of handmade soap scented with cucumber and coconut, and a natural fiber body scrubber, tied together in a palm leaf basket.

Creating this kit involves the contributions of two artisan workshops. Artisans working with Palam Rural in Tamil Nadu, India, which provides employment opportunities to people of the Harijan or “untouchables” community, make the handmade soap. Artisans employed by Community Action for Social Transformation (CAST), also associated with Palam Rural, weave the palm leaf baskets. CAST provides employment, healthcare and other benefits to women who are affected by HIV and AIDS.

All our soaps made in India use palm oil grown on local plantations. This palm oil provides work to local farmers and does not contribute to deforestation.
