Inara: Redefining skincare with handcrafted soaps for Bangladeshi skin

In a market dominated by synthetic products and overpriced imports, local brand Inara offers a refreshing alternative. Offering high-quality, handcrafted soaps tailored specifically for the people of Bangladesh, the brand aims to redefine everyday skincare.

The soap bars are cautiously crafted to suit the local climate and address our specific skin care needs, using carefully sourced natural ingredients that deliver affordable yet luxurious care.

"Bangladesh's weather—hot, humid, and often unpredictable—can take a toll on your skin. Inara's soaps are specially formulated to tackle these challenges, offering gentle yet effective care that cleanses, hydrates and protects," said a brand representative.

The brand's mantra is to blend locally sourced ingredients with premium imports like Persian saffron. By doing so, it produces products that not only rival high-end international brands but also champion local communities and their craftsmanship.

At Inara, every bar of soap is entirely handmade by a dedicated team of Bangladeshi artisans (mostly from Narayanganj), each expertly trained in handcrafting, blending and mixing essential oils with natural ingredients. From the initial preparation to the final packaging, every step is done by hand.

The production process begins with sourcing premium ingredients, both locally and globally. 

"For example, the saffron in our signature Saffron Goat's Milk Soap is imported directly from Persia. These ingredients are carefully measured, blended and shaped by skilled hands, creating soaps that not only nourish your skin but also tell a story of dedication and expertise," added the representative.

One of the best-selling products by Inara is the Saffron Goat's Milk Soap. This bar combines the deep hydration of goat's milk with the brightening power of saffron, making it the perfect remedy for dryness, dullness and uneven skin tone which are common challenges in Bangladesh's climate.

The other varieties of soups are infused with local ingredients like neem, turmeric and coconut oil as well as imported gems such as shea butter, saffron and olive oil. This fusion ensures that every bar meets international quality standards while being tailored to the needs of Bangladeshi skin.
