Making Homemade Soaps    by Greg Culver


Soaps making has been around for centuries. For many years most items people needed to survive and prosper were handmade. While the work to make handmade soaps is of course more than what it takes to pick a bar off the shelf, it allows you to know exactly what you are washing with. In fact it may open you to a lot of knowledge that in the end, might give you better health if you have some types of sensitive skin.

Before you do start making handmade soaps though, you will need to learn some about it. For example, making a lot of handmade soaps requires lye, and this can be caustic. You need to understand these factors, and have a good sense to not use too much of them when making handmade soaps. The right mix in handmade soaps should convert these to soap and glycerin. While this might sound scary, these are similar or the same chemicals used in store-bought soaps. A big difference in handmade is that you have a choice of the levels of these materials, whereas in the store, they are already chosen for you, and don't include non-mass-marketable ingredients that just a few might find good.

You will likely find local shops that sell handmade soaps. There will probably be some handmade soaps ingredient suppliers as well. Beyond these you may also find classes, and books that can give you even more input on handmade soaps.

Online, you shall find a great balance of handmade soaps articles, where you can learn what you need to in both the tools, and the ingredients that make great handmade soaps. You will also find a lot of interesting historical information about handmade soaps as well. For those that like reading, handmade soaps is rich in both modern knowledge as well as many different periods of history. It might make it hard to get to making them for those that are history buffs.

Another thought on handmade soaps, is that while today what you find at the super stores is tons of soaps, many of those also have handmade origins. While they have lost the variety in shapes, a lot of the base is still the same. With handmade soaps you can mold or even carve them to the shapes that are perfect for where you set them.

The items you need to make handmade soaps aren't that expensive either, and with some thought and foot work in shopping for them, you will find a lot of better prices on them as well. Just like anything else good research is also a good thing with handmade soaps.

If you are still reading, no doubt you have interest in making handmade soaps, and are ready to find anything and everything you need to do and know about them. Or you may find yourself shopping online for already made handmade soaps. Either way, you will probably find a way to have the best clean, that irritates your family's skin the least. Now you know.
