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.
