How we Make our Bar Soaps
The process of making soap bars is called saponification, which is the process of combining oils and lye (a type of caustic). This is a chemical reaction that relies on friction and self-generated heat. Through this chemical reaction, the acid and the base are neutralized. If the process is carried out correctly, there is no lye left in the soap.
The oils are responsible for giving soaps their fragrance and keeping them from drying out too quickly when being used.
Handmade soaps are made with natural ingredients such as olive oil, avocado oil, castor oil, shea butter, mango butter, etc. Also, to make them smell amazing they may contain essential oils or fragrance oils. Depending on the soap maker it will determine their preferences on what ingredients they like to use for their soap.
