Hollie's Handmade Soaps

06/10/2026

Wrapping soaps takes time and adds to the cost, but I believe it’s a worthwhile investment. I use Biolefin™ shrink film, an innovative plant-based, biodegradable wrap that helps keep the soap clean while still allowing it to breathe.

Natural soaps are also prone to developing glycerin dew, or “sweating,” when exposed to humidity. The wrap helps protect the bars from excess moisture, preserving their appearance and extending their shelf life while remaining an environmentally conscious packaging choice.
