Sweet Harvest Farms has taken an old basic soap recipe and added natural,
soothing and luxurious ingredients to create a unique luxurious Soap. This
wonderful early soap not only leaves you squeaky clean but also gives you soft,
supple and moisturized skin. This Cold Processed Soap method retains 100% of the
natural glycerin which is essential to hydrate your skin. Commercial brands
often siphon off the glycerin to sell as a by-product. In doing so their soap
can leave you feeling dry and itchy.
Don’t be fooled by “Glycerin Soap”. What
is referred to as Glycerin Soap is nothing more than a melt and pour product
that comes from a factory that others re-melt at home or in their store, color,
scent and add Glycerin to. True homemade soaps don’t need to have Glycerin
added-it’s already there!
Natural colorants are used in our wonderful soaps
to bring out the beauty of each bar and organic and natural herbs that are
proven medicinal are added to some of the recipes. Refined Shea Butter, Olive
Oil, Jojoba Oil, Palm Oil and Coconut oil are just a few of the rich oils used
to create this luxurious line of soap. Goat’s milk contains vitamins A, B6, B12
and E and is added because it is a natural emollient that helps soothe and
moisturize the skin. Some refer to these as Goats Milk Soaps, but it is the
combination of all ingredients that make these luxurious bars highly sought
after.
There are very few true soap makers left that stay true to the old
fashion method of soap making used literally thousands of years ago. Excavations
of ancient Babylon uncovered cylinders with inscriptions for making soap around
2800 B.C.E. Later records from ancient Egypt (c. 1500 B.C.E.) describe how
animal and vegetable oils were combined with alkaline salts to make soap. CJ has
taken this ancient recipe and added rich organic oils and pure Goats Milk
straight from the farm.
Many people have questions about the use of Lye.
Sweet Harvest Farms uses Food Grade Lye which is used to make Pretzels! The Lye
acts as a catalyst to heat and harden the oils. This is called Sapponification.
Once the Lye is mixed with the oil it is neutralized, in sense. Without the
combination of Lye and Lard it is not even considered a true soap by the FDA!!
It is considered a Beauty Bar. Beauty Bars are what you typically find in your
neighborhood grocery stores. Vegan/Vegetarian (or bars that do not use lard) do
not have the same medicinal properties that Lye and Lard soaps do.
Example:
Rub a bar of our soap (while dry-not wet!) on a mosquito or flea bite, poison
ivy or poison oak. It will stop the itch and ease the redness
immediately!
