Vegetable oil or animal fat?
Soaps made from animal fat; lard and tallow are not considered a superior bar of soap. Lard is rendered fat from tissue of the pig and tallow is obtain from solid fat near the kidney and loins of cow, sheep and horses. These fats have been used for many years. However, there are few differences between a bar of soap made with plant oils versus animal fat. Vegetable-based soaps are more chemically superior and are of higher quality. They are readily absorbed by the skin while animal fats tend to clog pores. Vegetable soaps will last longer due to molecule structure and are easier to scent. And last, soaps produced with animal by-products may go rancid within six months.
What are essential oils?
Essential oils are highly concentrated essences extracted from aromatic plants which contain various therapeutic properties. They are extracted, usually by distillation from fruits, flowers, herbs, trees and spices. Each essential oil, with it's complex chemical structure, provides the body with unique properties. These in turn both balance and enhance the body's own restorative processes. Essential oils reach the bloodstream through skin penetration and inhalation. Their scent appears to affect the part of our brain which processes memory and emotion. This natural combination ensure that body, mind and emotion all benefit. Essential oils are also used as a gentle approach to health care, to aid skin care and to soothe and promote relaxation.
