*HANDCRAFTED SOAP BAR

Santa Lucia Murari Borba was a farmer's daughter from Murari's Borba, born in Italy 1904. She moved to Brazil in 1917 from her home in Toscany where she had to learn to make soap from scratch and essential oils from the plants out of necessity. After years of making soap for her 13 children, her family finally convinced her to open a small soap shop in Sao Paulo Brazil where she made soaps with her family for 25 years, those soap recipes found there way to North Carolina last year when I went back to Brazil for Christmas and asked grandmother for food recipes to bring back to NC. While looking through boxes of recipes we came across all her old soap and essential oil recipes. Here is some of our soaps made from Grandma's batches.

I hope this information about why handmade soap is so good for your skin What's wrong with the stuff I can find at my local grocery store? If you buy the soaps you'll find in the grocery store and read the ingredients you'll find things like etidronate potassium chloride or how about cetyltrimethylamoniumbromide (what a mouthful!). Do you really want to use that on your skin? Many of the commerically available bars are not even soap, they are detergents. Detergents are great cleaners for your laundry, or your dishes, but not for your skin (Not so good for the environment either). The reason is that detergents clean by stripping away the oils which hold the dirt, and therefore they are very drying to skin. What's right with the handmade stuff? Most handmade soap is made with vegetable oils like olive oil, coconut oil, and palm oil. It has extra oil added which stays on your skin to moisturize it after the soap is rinsed away. It also conatins glycerin, a byproduct of the...

Just as bread bakers yearn for the impeccable crust and wine sommeliers search for the right bouquet, soap makers attempt the perfect bar. Gentle or astringent, perfumed or unscented, soap is an ancient craft. If making soap is a reminder of pioneer women stirring giant vats of lard and wood ashes, you’ve studied history. Soap making has a messy past based on a chemical reaction that appeared magical. Fat combines with lye (wood ashes contain a simple lye) resulting in saponification. The substance no longer is fat or lye, but a new product capable of cleaning dirt from skin and clothes. Saponification remains the basic chemistry. But modern soap makers experiment with exotics like avocado or walnut oils. Although tallow and lard are available, the mixture of vegetable oils like olive, palm or coconut has become a favorite. Homemade soap is nothing like the chalky bars of pioneer days. It may look like stained glass or be studded with oatmeal. Modern soap makers have turned soap into ...
