Mild and hypoallergenic, with a light lather, Nabulsi soap cleans almost anything without harming it. We love using this type of soap with our brushes, because there's no risk of any residual effects on the delicate fibers. It's equally good on your hands, so Nabulsi soap is a studio all-star.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe name \"Nabulsi\" means that this soap originates in the city of Nablus, in Palestine's West Bank. Olive oil soap has been made in Nablus for more than a millennium, through an ingeniously simple process that was copied worldwide after crusaders swept through the region around 1100 AD. Castile soap, which is much better known in Western countries, is a descendant of the original Nabulsi process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"THE OSTRICH\" (MASRI WORKSHOP)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Masri family has been producing Nabulsi soap for the Jordanian market since before 1948. Made in Irbid, Jordan, using traditional materials and techniques, \"The Ostrich\" is one of the oldest brands of Nabulsi soap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eABOUT PALESTINIAN SOAP COOPERATIVE:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalestinian Soap Cooperative is the United States distributor for eight different brands of Nabulsi soap — an ancient product that has been made with essentially the same formula and process since 950 AD. Producers in the city of Nablus have passed the traditional methods from generation to generation, despite the immense difficulty of operating small, family businesses in this volatile part of the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalestinian Soap Cooperative aims to support these traditional manufacturers by bringing their products to the global market at a fair price.
