About Natural DIY Handmade Soap

Natural handmade soap or natural handcrafted soap as known it's making from  natural ingredients by handmade in a small quantity from a manufacturer or for personal used and hobbies.Handmade soap, on the other hand, is generally thought of as soap made in smaller batches with personal attention, where the naturally occurring glycerin is retained in the soap. Fillers or detergents are rarely added to hand-crafted soaps because these require facilities and chemistry unavailable to (and unwanted by) most hand-crafted soap makers.Often the hand-crafted soap maker does the entire process from start to finish, including manufacture, scenting, curing, cutting, trimming and packaging. Natural handmade soap is widely used and popular in today's society because of its natural ingredients and friendly to our human skin,the most important is echo friendly to the earth.

Antibacterial and antimicrobial soaps often contain triclosan. Triclosan is a toxic chemical that is known to cause cancer. According to the National Coalition Against the Misuse of Pesticides (NCAMP), manufacturers of a number of triclosan-containing products claim that the active ingredient continues to work for as long as 12 hours after use. Consumers are, therefore, exposed to triclosan for much longer than the 20 seconds it takes to wash their hands or face.

The Differences Between Hand-Made and Commercial Soap

For obvious reasons, handmade soap will result in a greater degree of customization for the soap-maker, and the consumer. Hand-made soaps are often more gentle on the skin than commercially manufactured cleansers. Mass-produced soap sometimes utiltizes oleochemical derived from fats and oils; other soaps contain petrochemicals, which are derived from oil and fossil fuels. Many people begin making their own soap because they don’t like the idea of using petrochemicals to clean themselves, or because of the environmental impact of these chemicals.

Glycerin is a by-product of the soap-making process typically favored by commercial soap-makers, known as the full-boiled method; the glycerin is typically removed after the process is completed, and sold as a valuable humectant, or moisturizer.  
When the glycerin is removed, in commercial soaps,  the result is a pure detergent, which can be drying or irritating to the skin. With the glycerin still in the soap, it stays naturally moisturizing, and is also less likely to crack and fall apart than commercial soaps. Also, for those who make their own soaps, processes like superfatting, or adding certain skin-friendly ingredients, can yield a result that is not  as harsh as commercial soaps, for sensitive or chronically dry skin.Making soap by hand can be an interesting and fun hobby, but it is also great for those who find that commercial soaps are too harsh, or those who want to utilize scents or ingredients that are often not found in the usual store-bought soaps. 

In addition, natural ingredients are barely used in commercial soap-making, and while they are better for the environment, they also tend to yield a higher quality of product than synthetic detergents and processes. So, for those who are concerned about the environment, or the effects that synthetic detergents may have on themselves and their loved ones, soap-making can be a highly satisfying experience.
