Fun Cold Process Soap facts:
☺Many Beauty Bars are not true soap but have the same ingredients as
detergent. It is a cheap and easy alternative to soap. Companies try to
balance out the skin drying ingredients by adding oils.
☺ When you make your own soap, the glycerin is intact.
☺ You get to choose the oils and butters that you want based on your skins needs.
☺ You get to choose the fragrance you prefer.
☺ Soap making is creative, fun and will change your skins condition.
☺ Most Commercially made soap is actually detergent with high chemical
and petroleum content.
☺ The most common ingredient in commercial bar soap is Sodium
Tallowate (Beef Fat). Beef fat produces a hard bar of soap, is cheap and
plentiful. This makes it attractive for mass producing and marketing
commercial soap.
☺ Hand Made soap does not strip the natural oils from your skin.
☺ Commercial Soap can be drying. The glycerin has been removed and
sold to lotion and cream manufacturers. Glycerin actually pulls moisture
from the air onto your skin.

sensitive skin often find immediate relief after they switch to hand made
soap.
