Soap by definition is a mix of oils and fats with lye. And natural soap should contain only natural fragrances (essential oils) and natural colouring.

Natural soaps should use unrefined oils<\/li><li>Lye. To create saponification process, you need to add to the oil a strong alcali (sodium or potassium hydroxide). This will turn oils into fatty acid salts and glycerine, which is exactly what soap is.<\/li><li>Essential oils. This step is optional.

It is not natural and is not even really \u201csoap\u201d, it is mostly disguised detergent, which a result strips off natural oils from our skin and causes it to dry. As a result you need to aply moisturizers every time after the shower. It is a vicious cycle. Natural soaps on the contrary are gentle and moisturising for your skin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is natural soap made of?
