Discover Nablus Olive Oil Soap: A Palestinian Tradition for Natural Skincare

A Heritage Soap from the Heart of Palestine

For over a thousand years, the city of Nablus, nestled in the West Bank, has been known for producing a distinctive and all-natural olive oil soap. Known as Nabulsi soap, this artisan product is still crafted today using age-old techniques passed down through generations.

Handmade from only three ingredients—virgin olive oil, water, and a natural alkaline compound—this soap is a testament to Palestinian resilience, sustainability, and craftsmanship.

How Nablus Soap is Made

Each bar of Nabulsi soap is:

  • Cooked in large traditional copper vats
  • Poured onto stone floors to cool and harden
  • Cut by hand using wooden frames
  • Cured for months

The process takes time—but the result is a high-quality, long-lasting bar with an unmistakable creamy texture and earthy scent.
