Natural Bladderwrack Salt Soap helps balance the skin's bacterial population, as it contains a natural active ingredient derived from tea tree oil, which has antibacterial properties and helps control skin inflammation and infections. Its microbiome-supporting effect makes it an excellent choice for impure skin.

The sea salt in the Vässäähäuru salt soap helps to bind moisture to your skin. Regular use of salt soap can significantly reduce the need for oil on your skin. Sea salt, which has antibacterial properties, also helps to neutralize bacteria on the skin that cause the characteristic odor of sweat. Regular use of salt soap can also reduce skin problems caused by skin impurities, such as pimples.

The soap contains organic extra-virgin olive oil , which gently cleanses your skin without removing its natural oils and leaving it feeling moisturized. This is one of the reasons why Saaren Taika soap products are so popular among people with dry skin. Extra-virgin olive oil is the healthiest, most natural and also the most effective in skin care products, as it contains the most vitamins and fatty acids (antioxidants) characteristic of olives.

Organic shea butter in soap makes it especially moisturizing, as shea butter contains fats that do not saponify. In other words, shea butter is shea butter in soap and is known as one of the most moisturizing vegetable oils that does not block skin pores. As an antioxidant-rich ingredient, shea butter helps nourish the skin and may help slow down the signs of skin aging.

Organic coconut oil makes the soap effectively cleansing.

Saaren Taika bar soaps are carefully handcrafted in small batches in Finland.

Saaren Taika bar soaps are made from very high-quality and minimally processed raw materials, such as the Cretan Extra-Virgin organic olive oil that we use, which has won dozens of taste and sustainability awards .

This means that they contain natural vitamins, antioxidants and polyphenols, the nutrients your skin needs, without any additional chemical residues.

Cold-pressed and unrefined oils are packed with powerful natural nutrients that support your skin's health and barrier function. Unlike processed oils, they haven't lost their healing properties through chemical treatment or high temperatures.

We primarily use only certified, pure organic ingredients that care for, moisturize and protect your skin naturally. Therefore, the shelf life of our products may be shorter, but their functionality in skin challenges, i.e. the properties that support skin well-being and health, are the best possible.

The effectiveness of Saare Taika bar soaps is based on carefully selected, primarily unprocessed raw materials that preserve the vitamins, antioxidants and polyphenols that are important for your skin's well-being.

The vitamins in the oils promote collagen production, which keeps your skin supple and helps prevent wrinkles. They support your skin's natural barrier and help it fight off environmental aggressors.

The antioxidants in oils protect your skin from premature aging and perhaps inflammation. They prevent cell damage caused by free radicals, soothe irritated skin, and promote its well-being.

The polyphenols in the oils strengthen your skin's own protective layer, reduce redness and soothe sensitivities. They improve skin elasticity and moisture balance, leaving your skin healthy and well-being.

In addition, unprocessed vegetable oils retain numerous other nutrients that have an impact on the appearance and health of your skin.

Bladderwrack salt soap is a refreshing body renewer

This salt soap is specially designed for the body when you need an effective yet gentle cleansing. Its effectiveness is based on two natural ingredients: sea salt and bladderwrack powder.

Gently exfoliates dead skin cells and helps your skin renew itself
Deeply cleanses skin pores and balances sebum production
Especially suitable for rough, impure or dry body skin
This soap also contains a natural active ingredient derived from tea tree oil, whose antibacterial and microbiome-supporting effects make it an excellent choice for impure skin.

Bubble bath soap

When bladderwrack is extracted to provide the active ingredients for the serums and creams in the series, there is still some nutritious algae powder left over, and we decided to make full use of it. This is how Bladderwrack Facial Soap and Bladderwrack Salt Soap were born; two ecological innovations that are gentle on your skin and respectful of nature.

Own product development. Own active ingredient

At the heart of Saaren Taia's bladderwrack series are combined extracts developed in our own laboratory. These are completely new combinations, unique in Finland, that utilize the power of bladderwrack for the benefit of your skin in a way that has never been done before in Finland.

Our combined extracts utilize extraction methods we have developed, which allow us to recover the diverse nutrients and bioactive compounds from bladderwrack very efficiently.

This is the first time that such an effective, scientifically based skincare product has been made from Finnish bladderwrack, and it is made from scratch in our own factory in Perniö.

Saaren Taika is one of the few Finnish cosmetics brands that has its own laboratory-based product development and manufacturing under one roof. We develop and manufacture the majority of our products ourselves, based on our own research and vision.

But what happens when these active ingredients are extracted? What remains is valuable, mineral-rich bladderwrack powder that we didn't want to waste.
The Perniö cosmetics factory in Taia, Saari operates on the zero waste principle, where every by-product of the manufacturing process is fully utilized in a new form.
And this resulted in two completely new bar soaps that continue the story of the bubble foam series in an ecological and effective way.
