Key Ingredient
Najel Traditional Aleppo Soap with 40% Laurel is made with oils used during saponification, with 40% bay laurel oil and 60% olive oil. This percentage refers to the oils incorporated during the soapmaking process, not the exact percentage of bay laurel oil remaining in the finished soap. Glycerin is naturally produced during saponification. Most of it is rinsed away during washing of the soap paste, although traces may remain in the final soap.
- Saponified Olive Oil (Sodium Olivate): Helps cleanse the skin gently while respecting its natural balance.
- Saponified Bay Laurel Oil (Sodium Laurelate): Supports gentle cleansing and helps leave skin feeling soft and comfortable.
For customers who prefer a liquid cleansing format, the available Najel Aleppo liquid soap can be linked as another cleansing option. For those looking for a higher laurel oil ratio in a solid soap, this Najel 40% Laurel Aleppo Soap is the more focused choice within the Najel collection.

Product Questions
What does 40% Laurel mean?
It refers to the proportion of oils incorporated during saponification. According to Najel’s official formula note, the oils used during soapmaking are 40% bay laurel oil and 60% olive oil. It does not mean the finished soap still contains exactly 40% bay laurel oil.How should I choose between different laurel levels?
Lower laurel oil levels are usually easier to choose for general cleansing needs. A higher laurel oil level, such as 40%, is more suitable for customers looking for a more focused Aleppo soap for dry, sensitive or reactive skin.Can this soap be used before shaving?
Yes. Najel’s official description states that this soap can help prepare the skin for shaving. Use it as a cleansing soap on wet skin before shaving, then rinse thoroughly with water.How should I store this Aleppo soap?
Keep it in a dry, well ventilated place and let the soap dry between uses. Traditional hard soap can remain in good condition for a long time when stored properly, but the product should not be left soaking in water or kept in a damp environment.
