•There is no colorant in completely natural and pure olive oil soap.
Therefore, it is pale, colourless or in cream-green colour tones with small changes in accordance with its colour, production method and materials.
• Since it does not contain any odorants, it should have unique scent of olive oil. In other words, the olive oil soap does not have nice, aromatic odours. If it smells differently, it means that it contains odorants and various chemicals.
• Pure olive oil soap without any additives does not foam under cold water. It foams only a little bit under warm water (which is not as much as other soaps with animal fats and foaming agents).
• It should be kept in cool and dry places, because it softens and melts quickly when left to wet and humid environments. It transpires in hot environments. This situation is not observed in other soaps.
• When you put the same weight of olive oil soap and other soap produced out of animal fat into the water, the olive oil rises to the top. The other falls down the water. This situation is the result of lighter specific gravity of olive oil compared to water.
