Customer Testimonial: My Story
I have always been obsessed with soap bars. I collect soap bars the way people collect fridge magnets from all the countries they have visited.
I’m hunting unique ingredients, shapes, colors, and scents. I love seeing the soap bars in my cabinets, towel drawers, and wardrobe. I love their scent on my hands and body after each use. A soap bar makes me feel clean and refreshed, giving me that extra “safe from germs” feel.
I have never had liquid soap in a plastic bottle in my bathroom.
What I always had were around four different kinds of soap bars, all at once. I’ve got soap bars I collect to use, and I’ve got soap bars I collect to keep, which I started in 2015.
I moved to the UAE with only a few favorite soap bars from my “to-use” collection and started looking for local soaps made in the UAE.
Arcana Artisanal Soap Bars entered my Instagram feed with an Ad announcing a donation to a social cause with every purchase from their Summer Bundle. I did not hesitate. I ordered six soap bars at the very next minute (Raspberry & Vanilla Soap Bar, Sparkling Lavender Soap Bar, Oats & Honey Soap Bar, and the Summer Bundle soap bars: Watermelon Sugar 🍉, Blue Lagoon and Mango Sorbet) and an exfoliating soap pouch.

A message from Sam, the owner of Arcana Artisanal Soap ✅
I was impressed with their communication approach to keep their customers close and engaged. Sam sends newsletters with information about soap bars I can actually use.
The best way to test a soap bar? – I take it with me in the shower.
I have opened the Raspberry & Vanilla Soap Bar and added it to my shower routine. This soap bar does not melt in the shower, and it gives my bathroom a fresh, luxurious scent I absolutely love.
For my hands, for everyday use, I started using the Mango Sorbet soap bar. Both soaps keep my skin hydrated; I do not feel the need to add hand cream or body lotion after using the soaps.
I am traveling with Sparkling Lavender Soap Bar. Just in case. And because it perfumes my luggage.
The Watermelon Sugar 🍉 Soap Bar looks and smells so good that I will leave it for my “to-keep” collection.
Arcana’s soap bars come in minimal packaging that aligns with UAE’s waste reduction goals. Their artistic design perfectly reflects their handcrafted nature.
The soap bars feel substantial, with beautiful marbling patterns that make it visually appealing. It’s the perfect size for daily use and lasts a long time.
The fragrance is fresh and invigorating but not overpowering. It leaves a subtle, pleasant scent on the skin that lasts for hours.
Arcana is a crafted in Dubai brand that uses all-natural, vegan ingredients like coconut oil and shea butter, ensuring the bar is moisturizing and suitable for sensitive skin. Free from harsh chemicals, it’s ideal for anyone looking for an eco-friendly soap.
Performance-wise, it lathers well, providing a rich, creamy foam that cleans the skin without feeling stripped. The moisturizing properties are evident, as the skin feels soft and hydrated after each wash.
With proper storage, the soap bars hold up for weeks without becoming mushy. It remains firm and lasts longer than many mainstream brands.

Arcana’s cruelty-free and vegan certifications, along with their charitable donations, make their soap bars an ethical choice for conscious consumers.
Finally, given its artisanal nature, ethical production, and sustainability focus, Arcana offers excellent value for the price.
