Why use natural soap?

Most of us when walking down the soap aisle in our favorite stores are lured into buying products with colorful and attractive packaging as well as their fresh and scented aroma. However, most consumers don’t notice that these so-called soaps are actually labeled beauty bars, moisturizing bars, body bars, etc. this is because majority of the commercially produced bars available on the shelves of your favorite stores are not actually soaps but detergents which are not only bad for your skin but for the environment too. 

The soap making process is simple. It involves a chemical reaction between the oils and lye (sodium hydroxide). The chemical reaction converts the lye into glycerin which is a natural product commonly used as a moisturizer for dry and irritated skin. Commercial soap makers remove the glycerin that is produced from the lye and replace it with detergents, fillers, chemicals, high animal fat content, irritants, petroleum, etc. the glycerin is often sold to companies who produce moisturizers and lotions which most consumers need badly after using the harsh “detergent” soap. 

What’s the alternative of commercially manufactured soap?

Natural, organic and handmade soap which is made up of natural oils, have high glycerin content, are eco-friendly, and not tested on animals. Natural soaps are a bit expensive than the soap you’ll find at your local supermarket but these soaps are good for your skin and the environment too. 

Natural soaps can be used by people of all skin types – even sensitive skin. They are free from chemical additives and do not strip away your skin’s protective layer of oil –   rather it makes your skin more soft and smooth.
