Barbar, The Soap Workshop!
In the heart of Byblos,
In the old souk, where our Boutique,...
the oldest city in the world, origin of the first Phoenician alphabet,...
Our soap factory is located in Amchit, close to Byblos, the village where Ernest Renan, the French orientalist lived.
The soap workshop was founded in 2019 by the Engineer Pierre Nacouzi, an expert in agronomic sciences, in order to commemorate the memory of his Father Barbar, who taught him how to make soap. Hence, the name.
Since his childhood, making traditional laurel soap for personal use, Engineer Nacouzi, decided, while keeping the quality of tradition and while combining business with pleasure, to launch a new initiative to create an all-natural local quality brand... Barbar, a natural and artisanal soap.
Day after day, this range grows to become today composed of more than thirthy genres.
All our soaps are made using the ancestral method of cold saponification. This method makes it possible to preserve all the properties of the essential oils used and to make a firm, creamy soap rich in vegetable glycerin.
The essential oils are chosen according to their dermocosmetic properties, which give them an incomparable fragrance and provide personalized care.
The ingredients used are of organic and fair trade origin and/or from local producers, if they are produced locally.
After manufacturing, the soaps are dried away from light, in a dry and ventilated place for at least 5 weeks depending on each genre.
