Safe and Natural Soap (Part II) - Soapy Soap

All Natural Handmade Soap - for delicate skin

The moment i got my first bar of fresh goat milk soap purchased from the soap maker of Soapy Soap, i just can't wait to discover the goodness of this soap (hoping that it's not going to be another disappointment again like the earth mama baby angle bath). Well, my first experience with this soap was GOOD (no irritation nor rashes) and then i started to use it on both my boys - they just LOVE IT!! My little boy HW will call this soap 'the soft soft soap' as he can feel the softness of his skin after using this soap (his skin a bit dry before this- using Johnson & Johnson). Kids are very straight forward, I believe if they dislike certain stuff (esp new things) they will turn away or just say no to it, right?

I'm so glad that i've found this simple yet natural soap; it does meet my basic needs as a 'back to basic' cleansing agent. My comment for this goat milk soap - safe, gentle and affordable. However, bar soap has become less popular now as compare with shower gel. Most people will find that bar soap is an outdated and old fashion stuff as it looks boring. I must admit that Soapy soap does not come with nice packaging for environmental reason. Why do we need to pay extra costs in packaging where it will end up in our trash bin and what we actually need is only a SAFE SOAP.

FACTS ABOUT SOAPY HANDMADE SOAP

Soapy Sdn. Bhd. is a GMP certified manufacturer. Soapy All Natural Handmade Soaps are manufactured to meet the high standard of quality and hygiene. These soaps are mild and gentle soaps made of natural ingredients, mostly extracted from plants. Do not use animal derives except for honey and fresh goat milk.

SOAP BASE

The soap base is made of food grade edible oil of sunflower oil, coconut oil, water, palm oil, sodium hydroxide, castor oil, rosemary oleoresin and vitamin. Overall, our soaps are good in

moisturizing quality but not too soft that it will just melt away.

Sunflower Oil - Rich in linolenic and linoleic acids give the soap good moisturizing quality and promote creaminess in the soap.

Coconut Oil - Promotes hardness and cleansing quality of the soap.

Palm Oil - This semi-saturated oil has moderate moisturising quality, promotes creaminess and gives the soap a hard waxy touch.

Water - A medium to promote the chemical reaction between the alkali and fatty acids in the oil to produce glycerin and soap.

Glycerin - A humectant, which attracts water in the air to the skin to moisturize it. Handmade has between 5% to 8% glycerin compare to soap made with soap noodle, which normally contains a maximum of 1% glycerin. Most machine made soaps contain less that this level and only a very few may contain more. This is because as itself, glycerin can be sold to other industry especially pharmaceutical for good price.

Sodium Hydroxide - No sodium hydroxide means no soap. It is the alkali that is needed to bond with the fatty acid in the oil, resulting in soap and glycerin. Soapy Handmade Soaps do not have excess sodium hydroxide in it. We even reduce the amount to ensure there is and excess of 5% fat left to moisturize the skin.

Castor Oil - The only oil that contains ricinoleic acid that promotes a very good moisturizing quality to the soap. Ricinoleic acid is also an important component in the soap to exert anti-inflammatory effects.

Rosemary Oleoresin - This is the best natural antioxidant. It helps to prolong the freshness of the soaps. It also contains amino acid that nourishes the skin.

With further additives, each soap becomes unique and gives additional benefits to the user.

UNSCENTED SOAP

Our very mild range of soap, which is unscented, is suitable for hypersensitive and baby skin. Even though unscented, it still contains very light natural aroma from the ingredient used like honey, milk, etc..
