Soap, a natural skin product, is an anionic wetting agent used in conjunction with water for cleaning and washing, which comes either in the form of a viscous liquid or in solid bars. Handmade natural soap differs from industrial soap, in that, an excess of fat is sometimes used to consume the alkali where the natural glycerin is not removed, leaving a moisturizing natural soap and not pure detergent. Handmade natural soaps or those that contain excess fat are more skin-friendly, though if it contains too much fat, it can leave your hands greasy.

Soap is made by adding water and oil together, along with something to form them into soap, which is normally an alkali called lye or Sodium Hydroxide. This chemical reaction is called sponification. Normally, more oil is used, resulting in a soap that is more moisturizing for the skin and ensuring that all of the lye is used up in the curing process. The resulting reaction creates soap and natural glycerin, where the soap cleanses the skin and glycerin moisturizes it.

Vegan (the most healthyt) handmade natural soap is not made from rendered animal fats (i.e. lard or tallow) , like most regular soaps, but are made from natural plant-based oils like those from almonds, coconuts, palm, butters and olives, which are moisturizing and healthy for your skin. They contain no synthetic chemical preservatives but often have natural preservatives like Vitamin E.
