The beautiful things about homemade soaps are that you can do it with your chosen ingredients and fragrance. Soap making at home is fun and adventurous. Handcrafted soaps are enriched with vitamins, minerals, and beneficial oils because they are made with natural skin nourishing ingredients that won’t’ dry out your epidermis like those soap sold in the stores. If you have never tried making your soap, try one, and you will be surprised that it is not as difficult as you think. If you are new in soap making, I will advise you first start with melt and pour process. The “melt and pour” process is the most comfortable place to begin. Using a premade soap base, all you need to do is melt it down on the stove or in the microwave, then stir in fragrances, minerals, color, herbs, and whatever other ingredients your heart desires. Soap making has its rules, pros, and cons; to be a successful soap maker you have to adhere strictly to measurement and weight because that will determine the result of your final product.
Your soap making ingredient (lye and fats/oil) will through a controlled but straightforward process chemically bond these two ingredients into a new compound-SOAP.it will undergo a process called saponification. Every soap making from the scratch involves lye. In homemade soap, you should always use 100% lye (sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide) no substitute.
The good thing is that no-lye will remain in your finished product.
