Benefits Of Handmade Soap
INGREDIENTS The very best reason to use handmade soap is the ingredients. Our handmade soap is made of fats and oils that are rich in antioxidants, vitamins and nutrients that are essential to healthy skin. Many users report that handmade soap has not only improved their skin, but changed their lives by relieving them of itchiness, dryness and skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and acne. Everyone wants healthy skin and switching to daily use of handmade soap is a good place to start.
REAL SOAP It is commonly called soap, but that mass produced commercial stuff that you get at the supermarket is anything but. You have an array of personal cleansers to choose from that are labelled as deodorant soap, body bars, body washes and the ‘beauty bar’. These are made of detergents and synthetic ingredients that can dehydrate and age skin and may cause allergic reactions. Handmade soap is the real deal and one of the most appealing aspects is that harmful and unnecessary ingredients are NOT added to make it.
GLYCERINE Glycerine isn’t added to a handmade soap recipe – it’s created during the soap making process. Glycerine is a precious emollient that softens and maintains water balance by attracting moisture to your skin. It is proven to be so beneficial to your skin that it is extracted from commercial ‘soap’ and reserved for higher priced body care, hygiene and pharmaceutical products. Handmade soap retains all of its natural glycerine glory and produces a rich and luxurious lather.
MINIMISE HARM When you purchase handmade soap from your local soapmaker, you can be pretty certain that no humans were exploited in the production process. No communities or natural habitats were laid to waste by the runoff from a chemical factory and we don’t use lab animals to test our products. Reverence to a kinder way of living is a big part of why I make soap. Elcarim Farm soaps contain no palm oil, and our whole goat milk is ethically sourced on-farm from my own much-loved herd of goats.
VARIETY Mass-produced soaps made for sensitive skin generally come in one (plain) variety, but with home-made soaps you can choose from several naturally coloured and even scented options that are still gentle on your skin, but a bit more enjoyable to use.
