What All The Fuss About All Natural Bar Soap Fort Collins Colorado?

By Daniel Nelson


Does your skin feel dry and irritated from cheap commercial detergent? Mine did. I didn't know better; I had used these soaps for years. However, my wife gave me a bar of detergent that a neighbor gave to her as a gift. It was all natural lemongrass soap, and it was great. The moisturizing effect it had on my skin was amazing. The essential oils and native ingredients from the detergent was a huge change from what I had experienced before. I was sold; I would use nothing but All natural bar soap Fort Collins Colorado again.

Natural homemade detergent has inherent qualities that commercial detergent will never have. For instance, a style, incomparable scent and aura that catches attention, moisture and lather that matches body chemistry and the like. Furthermore, it gives that feeling of fulfillment after being able to use it.

Conventional cleansers are harsh as they are composed of chemicals. Consider the ingredients used in any conventional detergents, and you would likely find BHT, a synthetic antioxidant that preserves the oil in the detergent from going bad, Tetra sodium EDTA, as a preservative and Disodium phosphate as a buffering agent to adjust the ph. All these are chemicals used in the making of conventional soaps and are all possible irritants. Homemade detergents, on the other hand, are made of all natural ingredients like natural vegetable oils such as coconut oil, almond, palm oil, jojoba, avocado, etc. Blended to create a skin smoothing mixture with no irritating or drying effects.

Your skin benefits from the native oils that are in handmade detergent bars. The most common oils are soya oils, palm, castor oils, rice bran, coconut and sunflower. Mixing these base native oils with essential oils is what makes the detergent fragrant and pure. When mixed in a cool environment, it causes a chemical reaction called saponification. This is where the native glycerin is created, which results in a softer bar of detergent, with moisturizing effects, and an incredibly delightful scent of your choice.

Break off the base detergent and place it in the microwavable bowl. Make sure that the bowl is covered with saran wrap to keep the moisture in place. When ready place the bowl in the microwave and melt. Set it on high temperature for one minute. Do not overheat the detergent. Then bring it out, continue to stir until the base is completely melted. Remove the bowl from the microwave. Be vigilant while taking the bowl out, the melted detergent is still hot.

The whole making process is fun and it allows for creativity on the part of the maker. You can experience with different ingredients, different shapes and sizes and the sky is the limit regarding the types of homemade detergent you can make. Unlike conventional detergents that are nothing more than a hard bar with varied colors.

Due to their organic ingredients, they are better for your skin, great for the environment, and just plain healthier overall. Also, most of the native detergent bars are scented by their ingredients, so they smell great, and are natively coloured as well. Many foods have great scents that they will add to the detergent, such as coconuts and oranges, and these are usually used when creating organic detergent.

Unmold the detergent and cut in bar sizes if needed. Use a knife or special cutter if available. These are simple and easy to follow detergent making instructions. Try this first, and before you know it, the craving for a more unique, creative and complex detergent making will arise. Who knows this may go beyond what is expected and is the start of the ultimate artistic detergent maker.
