Full details

FAQs

What are the main scent notes in this hand soap?

The hand soap features a comforting blend of shea, sweet vanilla, and delicate mimosa, evoking the feeling of a Provençal winter.

Is this hand soap suitable for sensitive skin?

The formula is designed to be gentle and moisturizing, enriched with shea butter and sunflower seed oil. However, individuals with very sensitive skin may want to test on a small area first, as fragrance can sometimes be a trigger.

How do I refill the glass bottle?

To refill, unscrew the pump mechanism from the glass bottle. Pour the contents of a L'Occitane refill pouch into the glass bottle, then reattach the pump securely.

What is the benefit of the cream-to-foam formula?

The cream-to-foam formula provides a rich, velvety cleansing experience that is both luxurious and effective at lathering, while still being gentle on the skin.

Can I use this soap on my body?

While primarily designed as a hand soap, its gentle and moisturizing properties mean it could be used on the body. However, it is optimized for hand cleansing and may not be as economical for full body use.

What are the dimensions of the bottle?

The 350ml glass bottle typically has a height of approximately 18-20 cm (including the pump) and a diameter of about 7-8 cm. Exact dimensions may vary slightly.

Does this product contain parabens or sulfates?

L'Occitane formulations often aim to minimize harsh chemicals. Specific ingredient details can be found on the product packaging or the official L'Occitane website.

Troubleshooting

Pump is not dispensing soap.

Ensure the pump is properly screwed onto the bottle. If clogged, try priming the pump by pressing it several times. You may also need to rinse the pump nozzle under warm water.

Soap lather is not forming properly.

This is a cream-to-foam formula. It may initially feel thicker than traditional liquid soaps. Ensure you are using an adequate amount and have sufficient water to create the lather. If the product seems unusually thick or separated, ensure it has been stored correctly and is within its expiry date.

Skin feels dry after use.

While formulated for moisture, individual skin types can react differently. Ensure you are rinsing hands thoroughly. Try using a smaller amount of soap. Consider using a hand cream after washing, especially in dry conditions.

Glass bottle is chipped or broken.

Handle the glass bottle with care. If the bottle is damaged, carefully dispose of the remaining product and broken glass. Do not attempt to use a damaged bottle. Replace with a new bottle or refill into a compatible container.
