How to Use
Wet the bar and your skin with warm water, work the soap into a lather between your palms or on a washcloth, and cleanse the face, hands, or body. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Use once or twice daily. Between uses keep the bar on a draining soap dish so it dries and lasts longer. For external use only; avoid the eyes, and stop using it if irritation develops.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which skin types is Chandrika Ayurvedic Soap best for?
Chandrika is a general-purpose cleansing bar for the face, hands, and body, and it is especially popular with people who have oily or combination skin because it lathers well and rinses clean. Those with very dry or sensitive skin should test it on a small area first and follow with a moisturizer if the skin feels tight.
How do I use Chandrika soap and how often?
Wet the bar and your skin, work up a lather in your hands or on a washcloth, cleanse, and rinse thoroughly with water. It can be used once or twice a day as a face, hand, or body soap. Keep the bar on a draining dish between uses so it dries and lasts longer, and avoid contact with the eyes.
What ingredients give Chandrika soap its scent and lather?
The manufacturer highlights coconut oil as the base, plus wild ginger, lime peel oil, orange oil, hydnocarpus oil, and sandalwood oil, which together produce the light citrus-herbal fragrance. The bar is described as made from vegetable oils with no animal fat. Formulas can change, so read the current wrapper for the complete ingredient list.
