Simple care for sensitive skin

When your skin needs less stimulation, an unscented and uncomplicated routine can be a sensible place to begin.

General education, not a diagnosis or personalised medical advice. For persistent symptoms or known allergies, speak with a qualified healthcare professional.

Keep the routine uncomplicated

Sensitive skin does not need a complicated identity or a shelf full of products. Sometimes the most useful step is to choose fewer products, understand what is in them and introduce changes slowly.

A simple routine also makes it easier to recognise what is working well for you and what may not be. This is one reason Rooted values clear, complete ingredient information.

Meet Shea-Olive Soap

Shea-Olive Soap was created as Rooted's fragrance-free bar for extra-sensitive skin. It is made with olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, castor oil, bentonite clay, distilled water and sodium hydroxide used in the traditional soap-making process.

The bar is deliberately free from added essential oils. It offers a simple, gentle everyday cleansing option for people who prefer to avoid fragrance in their soap.

Know when to ask for more support

A handmade soap is a personal-care product, not a treatment. Rooted does not claim to diagnose, cure or treat eczema, allergies, infections or other skin conditions.

For a known allergy, ongoing irritation or a persistent skin concern, a qualified healthcare professional is the right person to advise you. Rooted is always happy to share the product's ingredient list so you can make an informed choice.
