By purchasing Peace Soap at Whole Foods or KissMyFace.com, consumers can personally support the international peace process as Kiss My Face donates 10% of the gross profits to Seeds of Peace.  These unique, all purpose soaps support this special non-profit organization dedicated to empowering young people from regions of conflict with the leadership skills and interpersonal networks necessary to advance reconciliation and coexistence.  The donation supports programming at the Seeds of Peace International Camp in Maine, USA – the cornerstone of its year-round co-existence program.

For 24 hours, activities will take place around the world as people join in celebrating the power of peace.  Established by a United Nations resolution in 1981 to coincide with the opening of the general assembly, International Day of Peace provides an opportunity for individuals, organizations and nations to create practical acts of peace on a shared date.  

Formulated with 100% natural ingredients including olive, coconut and jojoba oils, the Kiss My Face Peace Soaps challenge the established understanding that various chemical ingredients are required for personal and household cleaning.  An excellent choice for sensitive skin, Peace Soap contains natural olive oil to alleviate skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.  The simple formulation helps to reduce the carbon footprint and minimize waste imposed on the environment, while allowing for multiple benefits and uses.  

Kiss My Face Peace Soap is available in Grassy Mint, Lavender Mandarin, Lemongrass Clary Sage and Pomegranate Acai for $9.99 (17 oz) and $14.99 (34 oz) at KissMyFace.com and Whole Foods Stores.
