Real soap is more than a label — it’s a process, a philosophy, and a difference you can feel.
“Natural” shows up on everything these days. Lotions, shampoos, even pump soaps that promise botanical energy. The word gets used so often it can stop meaning anything. But when it comes to soap, “real” still means something — something made with care, from ingredients you can trust.
At 1920 Brands, the company behind Mister & Mrs1920™, we partner with small U.S. soap makers who never forgot what real soap should be. Simple. Cold processed. Plastic free. Built to last. Everything at NaturalSoap.com comes from that same commitment to quality — a clean that actually feels clean.
What “Natural” Really Means
We don’t make our soap in-house — we work with trusted U.S. artisans who specialize in handmade, small-batch bars and share our belief in honest ingredients. Their approach to “natural” is practical, not performative. It’s about using real, minimal ingredients and avoiding unnecessary synthetics.
Each bar starts with natural oils and butters — like olive, coconut, and shea — and is transformed through the traditional cold process method. That process uses sodium hydroxide (lye) to saponify the oils. It’s a required ingredient for real soap, and when done right, none remains in the finished bar.
For scent, many of our soaps use essential oils from natural plant sources. Some blends use fragrance oils when a specific scent can’t be achieved naturally. Even then, the makers we partner with keep it simple — no harsh preservatives, no artificial dyes, and no shortcuts. For color, they turn to herbs, clays, mineral pigments like iron oxides, and water-based colorants that are cosmetic-grade and safe.
In the end, one bar might be more or less natural than another — but every bar follows the same principle: real soap made the right way, without unnecessary chemicals or plastic fillers.
Cold Process vs Store Bought
Most bars on store shelves aren’t real soap. They’re detergent bars filled with synthetics that clean hard and leave skin dry. The natural glycerin that should be in the bar often gets removed.
Cold-processed soap is slow and intentional. Natural oils like olive, coconut, and shea transform through time and chemistry into a balanced bar that respects your skin. The result is a rich, creamy lather that earns attention because it works.

Ingredients to Avoid
If you want to know whether a bar is real, read the label.
- SLS or SLES — synthetic foamers that strip moisture
- Parabens — preservatives that don’t belong on skin
- Artificial dyes and fragrances — bright colors and heavy scents that try to mask what’s missing
Real soap uses honest ingredients. Oils, butters, clays, and essential oils. Fewer ingredients. Better results.
Why Palm Oil Isn’t Always the Problem
Palm oil gets a lot of criticism — some of it fair. But when it’s grown and sourced responsibly, it strengthens the bar, supports a smooth lather, and helps it last longer.
The makers we partner with use Sustainable Palm Done Right and Fair Trade sources. You get performance and peace of mind at the same time.
