Because it makes your skin feel soooooooo much better!.........
Natural
products work far better than synthetic chemical imitations
that tear up our skins' natural cycles. Human sebum is
very important and it is the first layer of protection
against the elements. Unknowingly we strip it away when
we use bars of detergent from the grocery store. Human
sebum is so important to good skin health and using natural
soap is a great way to treat yourself and improve overall
skin health. Learning the difference between natural products
verses chemically derived substitutes is actually simple.
Chemicals in skin care products should be avoided. If
the ingredient list is full of long scary words you do
not understand this means you should stear clear. Buy
skin care products with ingredients you can understand.
This is the ingredient
list of our Kukui Nut Dreams Bar Soap. Simple and
very effective without harsh chemicals. Un-Scented Natural
Hawaii Soap
Coconut,
Palm, Soybean & Olive Oil Macadamia & Kukui Nut
Oil and Organic Oat Flour
Understanding
the difference between natural soaps and detergent bars
is a great place to start learning. Not many other people
I meet know any difference exists. Around 1942 production
of soap by the large manufacturing companies changed in
a big way. Soap makers found that the same fats that turn
into soap and make naturally occurring glycerin can yield
more money if those fats are turned into nitro glycerin
(gun powder). Yes, Palm Olive Brand detergent (as in Palm
and Olive oils) made more money turning fats into gunpowder
for the war effort. So, if they no longer make fats into
soap today, what is that stuff on the shelves at your
supermarket? Good question! The replacement for soap is
detergent. Detergents are more profitable for big manufacturers
because the cost of the raw material is so much lower.
Replacing Coconut, Palm, Soybean & Olive Oil with
much less expensive petroleum chemicals like sodium lauryl
sulphate a foaming agent created huge profits and streamlined
the production. All of these new chemicals lowered the
cost to manufacture and the final bars of detergent cost
less for the consumer than soap. We all have a part to
play in the fact that we can't buy soap any more at the
grocery store. Supply and demand. Now more and more people
are finding they have bad skin reactions to detergents
and chemically based skin care products, driving more
people every day to educate themselves about using natural
alternatives in the skin care products they buy.
The main problem with using the cheap skin products based
in petroleum is that human skin has natural and protective
oil layers called sebum which detergents and harsh chemicals
strip away. When our natural shield is removed, any nasty
chemicals in the synthetically derived “Beauty Bar
“ are free to damage unprotected skin cells. With
a real bar of soap, you get a moisturizing and cleansing
bar that is gentle on your skin.
