Firsthand Supply - Ritual Hand Soap

Hero Ingredients: A targeted blend for clean, calm, and hydrated hands.

Plant-Based Surfactants: This formula uses a blend of mild cleansers derived from sources like coconut. They work to gently lift away dirt and grime without the harsh, stripping effects of traditional sulfates.

Propanediol and Glycerin: This is the core hydrating duo. They are powerful humectants that draw moisture into the skin, helping to strengthen the skin's natural barrier and keep your hands from drying out.

Panthenol and Chamomile: The ultimate soothing pair. Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) helps to hydrate and repair the skin, while Chamomile extract is well-known for its ability to calm irritation and redness.

Aloe Vera: Infuses the skin with an extra layer of moisture and antioxidants, leaving hands feeling soft and comfortable.

Why use a high-quality hand soap instead of a cheap one from the drugstore?
Many inexpensive hand soaps use harsh detergents (like sulfates) that can strip your skin of its natural oils. This can lead to a damaged moisture barrier, causing your hands to feel dry, tight, and cracked, especially with frequent washing. A high-quality soap like this one uses gentle cleansers and is packed with hydrating ingredients to clean your hands effectively while also caring for your skin.

Will this dry out my hands if I wash them a lot?
No, it's formulated specifically to avoid that. With hydrating and soothing ingredients like Glycerin, Panthenol, and Aloe Vera, it's designed to be gentle enough for frequent use without causing dryness.

Is this soap antibacterial?
While this soap is not specifically marketed as "antibacterial" (a term which usually implies the use of specific chemical agents), the act of washing your hands with any soap and water for 20 seconds is highly effective at physically removing germs and bacteria, as recommended by the CDC.

What's up with the packaging?
This refillable container is crafted with 100% recycled plastic. Refill. Repeat. The pump is made from mixed materials and can't be recycled curbside. The box is made from 100% FSC-certified paper and can be recycled curbside.
