Holy Basil Soap

Crafted in small batches by traditional soap makers in Tamil Nadu, India. The Holy Basil Soap is cruelty‐free, chemical‐free, paraben‐free and palm oil free. Holy Basil is an herb native to the Indian subcontinent and known to have naturally antibacterial properties. It helps reduce SEBUM which contributes to clogged pores, leaving your skin feeling fresh without feeling stripped.

Who Made It: Palam Rural Centre offers employment opportunities to people of the marginalised Harijan community in a village in Tamil Nadu region of southeastern India. In the Tamil language, Palam means “bridge.” Palam Rural Centre seeks to build a “bridge” from the markets to the rest of the world. Palam has been able to purchase land and homes for artisans (ownership traditionally unavailable to lower castes) and built a school for artisans’ children. Through this work, Palam Rural Centre is providing dignity and security to artisans and helping to break down caste walls in society.
