Warning #3: FACTORY SOAP IS MADE FROM CHEAP ANIMAL FATS (LARD or TALLOW)
Ok, you walk into the soap aisle. You finally find a box that has the word "soap" on it. (They're few and far between.)
Would you put grease from frying hamburgers on your skin?
I wouldn’t, it is a hard fat at room temperature and plugs up your skin pores.
Lard is CHEAP. That is why the factories use it. That is what the stores buy. But they won’t come out and say it quite that way.
On the label, they call the ingredient “sodium tallowate” - tallow is rendered animal fat.
READ THE LABEL! Look for the word “tallowate” or “sodium tallowate” on a bar of soap. This is a HAMBURGER GREASE base.
I use GOURMET, FOOD-GRADE vegetable oils.
Only the finest ingredients you would find in a gourmet kitchen are included - olive, coconut, palm, and soybean.
