Neem & Turmeric Protecting Soap by Himalaya
Do you like a bar of soap with a spicy, fresh scent? This neem soap by Himalaya is a classic 75-gram bar with neem oil and turmeric oil. You can use it on your hands, body, and face. It lathers well, smells fresh of lemon and spices, and fits in any soap dish in the bathroom or kitchen.
What is in this neem soap
The base consists of palm soap and palm kernel soap (sodium palmate and sodium palm kernelate, the soap created by saponifying palm oil and palm kernel oil). Glycerin and a little salt are added to make a firm bar. Then come the two plants in the name: neem oil, pressed from the seeds of the neem tree, and turmeric oil from the rhizome of the turmeric plant. Lemon peel oil gives it a fresh scent. The green color comes from CI 77288, a mineral dye. Good to know: it contains fragrance, including limonene, citral, geraniol, linalool, and coumarin. These are listed separately so you can avoid them if you are sensitive to them.
Neem and turmeric in Ayurveda
The neem tree (Azadirachta indica) grows in India and the surrounding countries. Twigs and leaves from the tree have been used there for centuries in daily care. You probably know turmeric from the kitchen, as the yellow spice in curry. In India, the root is also part of traditional care rituals, for example at weddings. Many people wonder if a soap with turmeric will leave a yellow stain. In short: no, this contains the oil from the root and no powder, and the soap itself is green. So this turmeric soap will not leave yellow stains on your towel.
How to make a bar of soap last longer
A bar of soap stays in the best condition when it can dry between washes. Place it on a soap dish with holes or ridges so that no water remains underneath. And keep it out of the shower spray. By the way, at 75 grams, this neem oil soap is a convenient size for a guest bathroom, your gym bag, or a weekend away.
Himalaya has been making personal care products with plants from the Ayurvedic tradition since 1930. This neem soap is a simple example of that: an affordable bar of soap with neem, turmeric, and lemon, for everyday use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does a turmeric soap stain your skin or towel yellow?
No. This soap contains turmeric oil from the rhizome, not turmeric powder. The soap itself is colored green and does not leave a yellow stain.
What does Himalaya Neem & Turmeric Protecting Soap smell like?
Fresh and spicy, with a distinct lemony note. That comes from the lemon peel oil and the fragrance. Neem oil itself has a fairly strong scent, but you can barely smell it in this soap.
Does this soap contain fragrance or allergens?
Yes, the soap contains fragrance with limonene, citral, geraniol, linalool and coumarin. These fragrance substances are listed separately on the ingredients list. If you are sensitive to any of these substances, it is better to choose a fragrance-free soap.
What is Melia Azadirachta Seed Oil?
That is the official ingredient name of neem oil. The oil is pressed from the seeds of the neem tree, a tree that is common in India. The oil is golden yellow to brown and has a spicy scent of its own.
What is the difference with the Almond Moisturizing Soap from Himalaya?
The difference lies in the plant-based additions and the scent. The Neem & Turmeric soap contains neem oil, turmeric oil, and lemon peel oil, and smells fresh and spicy. The almond soap revolves around almond oil, apricot kernel oil, and rose, with a softer, floral scent.
