Marius Fabre Marseille 72% Oil Biodegradable Laundry Soap Flakes
Best natural laundry solution for delicate fabrics and sensitive skin.
Marius Fabre preserves the tradition of authentic Marseille soap, now crafted with oleic sunflower oil instead of palm oil. This biodegradable soap is made entirely from vegetable oils and is free from artificial colorings, fragrances, and harsh chemicals. It is highly recommended for gently washing all textiles, especially delicate items like wool, silk, and baby clothes. This soap is also highly efficient on resistant and greasy stains. For tough spots, rub the cube directly onto the stain before machine washing. For hand-washing, create a rich foam and rinse thoroughly.

What customers say
