Sensitive Skin And Soap

Sensitive skin and soap do not always work the best together

. Some soaps can be filled with harsh ingredients that dry out and irritate skin. Soap making is a refined process, and there can be plenty of different ingredients in each brand of soap.

Natural soaps use natural, organic products. You need to be careful when buying natural soaps, however, because some 'natural' ingredients will be more natural than others. Here are some things to look for on your soap making or natural soap ingredients list.

Start by looking at the listed ingredients in the soap. Soap usually has a scent to it, but it is important to know where that scent is coming from. It can potentially be made from essential oil, but it can also be made from fragrance oil as well.

Sensitive skin does not do well with fragrance oils. Fragrances from essential oils may be too expensive or not available, so some people choose to use soap making with fragrance oils instead. Fragrance oils are a lot harsher on the skin than natural essential oils are.

When you are looking at the ingredient list it is important to see what colorants are listed. This will determine how natural the soap actually is. Some colorants will be more natural, and better than skin, than others.

Very natural soaps will use natural ingredients, such as herbs and plants. Other natural soaps may still throw in synthetic colors, like red#2 or blue #3. Soap can be colored by mineral colorants as well.

Don't be scared when you see the ingredient lye. Lye is the key ingredient involved with soap making. Since there is zero residual lye left over when the soap becomes soap, it is completely safe to use.

Natural soap is very good for the skin. Some people find that switching soap brands can do wonders for bad skin conditions, such as psoriasis or eczema. Be sure to find the most natural type of soap to protect your skin best.
