Benefits of Handcrafted Soap
Does your skin ever feel dry, itchy and tight? You slather on the lotion and still, dry, itchy, tight skin? Your soap (which isn't really soap at all, but a detergent bar) is most likely the culprit. Harley's Delight can help!
Our skin is the largest organ of our body. It is our defense against the outside world. Our filter between us and our environment. Every day we make choices about what we will put IN our body, but most of us don't think much about what we are putting ON our body.
Much of the soap available in the store today is not really soap at all, but a detergent bar. Detergents are a petroleum based product, like gasoline and kerosene. Other ingredients in mass-produced soap have been proven harmful to human health and can cause severe skin irritations in some people. These include ingredients such as DEA, Isopropyl Alcohol, artificial fragrances, FD&C Colors, Propylene Glycol and Triclosan. These ingredients are not natural.
While there is nothing new about handcrafted soap, its popularity is growing rapidly. The sales of handcrafted soap continue to grow as part of society’s desire to purchase products that are healthy and good for the environment. With the ever increasing use of synthetic chemicals and studies about their dangerous effects, consumers are looking for more "green" alternatives.
Evidence abounds of the healing properties of a handcrafted bar of soap. Those who suffer from skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema, as well as people that have sensitive skin or are hypoallergenic often find immediate relief by switching to handcrafted soap. Compared to store bought soap, handcrafted soap is very mild. Our handcrafted soaps are made from vegetable oils, such as olive, coconut, and palm, and do not contain the potentially harmful chemicals found in conventional bar soap.
One of the biggest differences between commercial, mass-manufactured soap and handcrafted soap is glycerin. Glycerin is a clear liquid that absorbs water from the air and is a key factor in keeping skin soft and healthy. Glycerin soap is especially good for sensitive and delicate skin, and for children. Because it is a high quality by-product in the soap making process, many commercial soap manufacturers often extract the glycerin and sell it as a by-product to be used in higher priced products like lotions and skin creams. Handcrafted soap retains ALL its naturally occurring glycerin.
Good for your Body. For adults, the skin covers approximately 20 square feet of the human body. It is the largest human organ and is the body’s first line of defense against dehydration, temperature, infection and harmful substances. Handcrafted soaps give your skin the care it deserves and make bathing a gentle, soothing experience.
Good For Your Mind. For many of us, life moves at an often hectic pace. While the stress of everyday life increases, time for ourselves is at a minimum. A fragrant, handcrafted bar of soap is a simple indulgence that fosters a feeling of relaxation and being pampered. Treat yourself or someone you love to the benefits of a bar of handcrafted soap. At Harley's Delight we guarantee you will be glad you did or we will refund your money 100%.
