Homemade Soap Bars!!! Yes, you can make your own soap!!

 Soaps should be made with fresh natural oils in small batches. These are made with lye (Sodium Hydroxide). Oil and water don't mix, but with the use of lye they will. The only job that the lye serves in the soap making process is to combine oil and water. This is called saponification. Once the soap is fully saponified, the lye is no longer active.

You may have noticed that in retail stores it's hard to find any body cleanser that is labeled 'soap'. You will find a lot of beauty bars. There's a very good reason for this. When you combine lye, liquid and oils to make soap, glycerin is produced naturally. Glycerin is a humectant which means it will draw moisture from the atmosphere and hold it on your skin. Beauty bars have been stripped of their glycerin to sell for a much larger profit than you can get from selling merely soap. Many people have reported complete relief from Exzema and Psoriasis by using homemade soaps. Below is a link to the recipe and instructions for making your own soap bars-
