| Will
handmade soap be gentle to my skin |
| Yes! The
reason the Real Handmade Soap is gentle to the skin is because of the
glycerin content. Glycerin is a natural by-product of the soapmaking
process. Commercial
manufacturers remove it because it "gums" up the milling machines and
because it is a valuable commodity that can be sold to the cosmetic and
other industries. Real Handmade Soapmakers do not remove the glycerin.
because glycerin is a "humectant" which is a category of substances that
attracts moisture. What this means to you is that soap with glycerin
actually moisturizes your skin. Soap without glycerin dries it out. Glycerin
is also what creates the lovely, silky feel that people typically associate
with Real Handmade Soap.
