The Camel / al-Jamal, made in the Shaka'a family-owned workshop in Nablus, is the most iconic imprint of Nablus soap --- often people refer to 'al-Jamal soap' to mean Nablus soap in the same way that people talk of Jacuzzi for hot tubs or Xerox for copy machines. Its main market is in southern Palestine around Hebron. The imprint took its mascot from the camel trains used to carry in qilw soda ash and olive oil to Nablus from neighboring countrysides.

Ingredients

Virgin olive oil, water, and sodium hydroxide.

Dimensions

Average 4.8 ounces per bar.

Care Instructions

Olive oil soap gets better with age. Keep them in a dry place for an increasingly olive-tan colored, dense, sudsy, and less soap-smelling bar. They can be aged even faster in a sunny window.

Great on my skin!

I started using this soap at the beginning of this year and noticed a significant change on my skin. I use it as a body wash. I had redness and irritation on my chest and noticed it is now gone after using this soap. I also love the light scent. It’s a beautiful soap!

Iconic Soaps, amazing quality

Well, it is difficult to say something new about these soaps: They have been rightfully praised before. The quality and craftsmanship and the distinguished tradition that goes into their production is uncomparable to any other soap. My skin loves it - no drying out, no irritation but a subtle and clean feeling. Thank you!
