Welcome to our adventure in homemade soaps, lotions and more. The adventure started over a year ago in early 2013 when my wife and I decided to start making more of our own laundry soap. We did it to save money at first and then found out how much better our life is without all the added chemicals that are added to commercial products. I started researching homemade soaps and now it has grown into a passion, and love for, making great smelling and good for you soaps, lotions and more. Please won't you join us on this adventure and enjoy some of the fruits, (or soaps) of our labors. We hope you enjoy our products and come back often. We love repeat customers.
Many of you may like commercial soaps because of their large amounts of lather, but in my research this is what I found...
We have come to associate the effectiveness of our cleaning products with the amount of lather they generate while being used. What most people don’t realize, is that soap, shampoo, toothpaste and other cleaning products (both personal and household) don’t need to have a lot of lather to do their job. Soap lather, which suspends dirt by creating greater surface tension in water, traps dirt for easy removal through rinsing. But we don’t require a ton of lather to get the job done.
Many personal care products have a foaming agent added to them. That’s how we get that frothy lather we know and love. The most commonly used foaming agents are cocamide DEA, MEA or TEA. These particular chemicals serve no purpose other than to make shampoo thick and foamy.
Most soap lather is artificially created because of customer demand, not because it is needed for cleaning. Retailers of soaps and shampoos see the opportunity to make their products look better by claiming that more lather equals cleaner body parts. It’s very inexpensive to put chemicals into soaps to make them lather unnecessarily, and the result is that we end up smearing more toxins onto our bodies than are unhealthy, all for the misconception of being a cleaner soap.
After reading this, do you still want a lot of lather in your soap or on your body?
