NATURALUS SOAPS



What is soap? Simply, soap is a salt, which is formed by combining an alkali with an acid. The alkali portion is lye. Lye is also known as sodium hydroxide and it is a very strong alkali. This alkali is then taken and mixed with an acid. The acids that are used in our soapmaking are vegetable oils i.e. Coconut oil, Rice bran oil etc. When these acids and alkali are mixed together they have a chemical reaction which changes them to a 'Salt', which is 'soap and glycerin', and no lye remains. This is the process called 'saponification'. Saponification literally means 'soap-making'. 'Sapone' is Italian for Soap. Traditionally the lye came from fire ash which was mixed with fat giving a crude soap which could often be very caustic.

'Handmade soap' versus 'Commerical soap'. What is the difference? Commercial soap, which you find at the supermarket is generally mass produced in a factory. Some factory made soap has small amounts of excess alkali left in them, which can burn the skin. Commericial soaps can also have the glycerin removed from them. They do this because they make a greater profit from selling the glycerin then they do selling the soap. Glycerine is a humectant, basically this means it attracts moisture. BUT when you remove the glycerin from any soap you also remove its natural moisturizing properties, and hence with their use you dry out your skin.

So when you choose Naturalus Handmade Soaps you choose soaps that are filled with natural glycerine and they will moisturize your skin leaving it soft and smooth. Amongst our soaps we have a Goats Milk range for even greater skin care and a Charcoal-Clay range for a deeper cleanse with extra rehydration. There are of course more soaps than these so please browse below because there’s bound to be something to suit you.

Our bar size is approximately 70mm x 70mm x 25mm unless stated otherwise. Average bar weight is 130gms.
