Marseille Laundry Soap Cube

Marius Fabre's Laundry Soap Cube is now palm-oil free. Crafted using authentic Marseille soap standards established in France in the 9th century, this laundry soap is entirely vegetable based and is biodegradable.

We recommend using the Laundry Soap Cube for spot-treating stains or for hand washing.

For larger loads of laundry, we recommend using Marius Fabre's Soap Flakes or Liquid Laundry Soap. 

Materials:  soap (sodium sunflowerseedate, sodium cocoate), aqua, glycerine, sodium chloride, sodium hydroxide

The glycerine in Marius Fabre's Marseille soap has not been added, it is naturally present in vegetable oil. After a 10-day cooking period and many rinses, only a small amount remains. Authentic Marseille soap, when it is made according to traditional processes, is actually glycerine free. “Glycerine” is, however, listed in their soaps’ ingredients because some traces remain. New cosmetic regulation requires all ingredients, even in small quantities, to be stated in the list of ingredients.
