100% natural products from Borale
The Borale manufacture, founded in 2008 in Baie-Comeau, has specially designed three 100% natural products, with holiday essences, to recall those beautiful winter walks in the woods. Manufactured according to a traditional Marseille method, Borale soaps respond to the same long-standing concern of the company, namely to preserve a soft and silky skin. They are hypoallergenic and suitable for all skin types, from Winter Fir bar soap to hand soap with the comforting aromas of evergreens, citrus and spices. As for black soap, it is an ecological alternative to all those cleaning products that dry out the hands, in addition to being safe for children and animals.
