Importance Of Organic Handmade Soap

By Shirley Sanders


Many times after shower you may find your skin irregularly dry and uncomfortable. This is because of using common commercial detergents made up of chemicals that cause skin dehydration and also poses harm to the environment. Organic handmade soap contains no artificial fragrance and is made up of natural oils from plants such as olive, aloe vera among others.

The compounds that are used to made the regular detergents destroy the natural defenses of the human skin leaving it vulnerable to diseases. They are made in large amount mostly for making money rather than beneficial properties to the user. The handcrafted detergents have been made with a lot of precaution and thought. Skin sensitivity is considered when making these detergents. Vitamin E and aloe Vera products are some of the common compounds incorporated in these detergents. These prevent the human skin from being compromised.

Alkali compounds are the major components found in regular detergents. These compounds are known to be irritants and cause skin rash and scaling. Other compounds include petroleum products which are also known to be irritants and known to cause dehydration of the human skin. Antibacterial products have also been incorporated to destroy microorganisms.

The antibiotics incorporated in the regular surfactants are usually broad spectrum and may destroy even the beneficial microorganisms. Moreover, they may cause antibiotic resistance as they offer selective pressure to these microorganisms. This means that some microorganisms may be destroyed and others which are left develop resistance to the antibiotic used. This is a big problem in drug discovery and development.

Glycerin is the most common ingredient in natural detergent. The regular detergents manufacturers usually extract this compound to make products such as lotions while the natural handcrafted detergent contain this compound as a natural product within them. This compound moisturizes and smooths the skin for a long period. These natural detergents are readily available in the market in different forms, shapes, and sizes. This soaps can remove premature wrinkles on your skin within days.

The skin has pores that can allow some external products into the system. When using regular soaps which contain harmful chemicals, these chemicals can find their way into the system leading to allergic reactions and other skin complications. However, when natural ingredients are used to make the detergents, the soap becomes friendly to the human skin as they protect rather than causing harm to it.

Most of the industrially made surfactants are designed only to kill germs. They sometimes leave the body more susceptible to infections as they destroy even the beneficial organisms on human skin. However, the natural detergents are made to destroy the pathogens as well as smoothening and moisturizing the skin. Natural oils such as palm oil and olive are common compounds found in them.

Making natural detergents is simple since most of the compounds you are suing are neither harmful to you or the environment. A simple method such as melt and pour can be used. Sometimes you can mold the soap into any shape you want it to be. Putting a little creativity can sell your products faster.
