NEEM - Margo Neem Soap

I have tried tons of soaps and facial washes and very few ever do the trick. I Love to use neem soap. The only downside is that its hard to track down. I use: Margo Neem Soap.

It washes all the dirt and oil from your skin. Leaves you feeling fresh and clean. Not the most fragrant but what good is a fragrant non-performing soap?

Healing Benefits of Neem

The exceptional properties of Neem can be summarized as anti-septic and anti-inflammatory, and they facilitate wound healing. Neem trees produce a cocktail of molecules in their leaves and seeds that have potent properties. Scientific studies have shown Neem to have elements that are:

• Antiviral – inhibits the growth of viruses
• Anti-fungal – inhibits the growth of fungi
• Antibacterial – destroying the growth of bacteria
• Analgesic – providing pain relief
• Anti-inflammatory – reduce certain signs of inflammation, swelling or tenderness
• Antimicrobial -destroying the growth of microorganisms

In addition Neem contains insect repellent substances and natural anti-histamines. One can think of it as the immune system of the tree, a mechanism that allows these trees to survive in extreme environments.
