Why our soap is different...
Soap making is a delicate blend of art and science. People who have tried our soaps are sold and ususally don't purchase anything else. Yes, and even the GENTLEMEN like the soaps which we make. More and more people are discovering the truth about commercial "soaps" (go ahead and read the ingredients on their labels). They are finding out that they are not soaps but actually harsh detergents and petroleum products. Detergents strip oils out of your skin removing the natural moisturizing body oils along with the soil. It's no wonder your skin feels dry and uncomfortable after bathing. Commercial "soaps" also remove the naturally occurring glycerin that would normally be found in soap. Glycerin is a natural humectant that helps your skin retain its natural moisture. Commercial manufactures use salt to remove the glycerin creating an even more drying soap. Once the glycerin is removed they sell it to other companies as it is worth more money that way. And whom do they sell it to? To the companies that produce lotions and creams…. The very same lotions that you now need to apply after bathing because, your skin has been dried out by commercial detergents! Handcrafted soaps gently lift the soil on your skin into suspension so it can be washed away. Handcrafted soaps leave glycerin and other moisturizing oils behind making your skin softer and less dry. After regularly using handcrafted soap you should find that you no longer need to apply as much lotion and cream after bathing. Many people find they don't need additional products at all after using our soap. So why not treat yourself to a bar of handcrafted soap... Your skin will thank you for it. Our Soaps are rich in proteins, vitamins, and minerals and nourishing to your skin. We do everything possible to preserve these properties. The result; our soap moisturizes, soothes, and softens your skin naturally. Try a bar... We think you will love how it makes you feel. Handcrafted soap is beautiful to see and soothing to the skin. Our soap and oils have nothing in common with store bought soaps. Our products are made with all-natural ingredients. Our unique soaps feel soft and soothing to the skin. The lather is penetrating rather than thin and airy. It glides over your skin, creating a silky layer that protects your skin and leaves it feeling soft. Our soaps are made in our home, hand formed, hand wrapped giving each bar that little extra personal touch. Soap is a little tricky to make and you need to be careful and take the necessary precautions. If you think back to your chemistry classes in school, soap results from the chemical reaction between fats, which are acids, and lye, which is a base. Our soap making ancestors made a weak lye solution from wood ashes, we on the other hand, do not use lye, we use glycerin / animal or vegetable fat. If you trace this back in history, soap was originally discovered after the fats from the animal sacrifices mixed with the ashes of the burnt offerings in the rivers that flowed close to the alters. While the women rubbed and pounded the clothes on the rocks to clean them, they found that if they did their washing near the sacrificial alters that the clothes got much cleaner. We are committed to making natural bath and body products that gently yet thoroughly cleanse and moisturize. Our ingredients contain no artificial preservatives or colors. Most people with sensitive skin find they can use our scented products with good results, but for our friends with especially delicate complexions we also offer unscented products. Sue's Unique soaps are actually moisturizing, because we use a little more beneficial oil in our soap, so our soap has absolutely no trace of lye and a little extra moisturizing oil left for your skin. |
