It helps shield skin from environmental sources of irritation and also strengthens the skin’s precious moisture barrier.

Cold Processed Soap vs. Melt and Pour
If you’re just getting into soap making, you may be wondering what the difference is between cold processed soap and melt and pour soap. Cold process soap is made by combining oils and sodium hydroxide lye. Mixing these ingredients causes a chemical reaction called saponification. After saponification, you then need to let your soap cure for 6-8 weeks. Melt and pour soap has already gone through that process, meaning you don’t have to worry about using lye or curing your soap. Making it a great option for working around children or if you don’t have the patience to wait for your beautiful soaps! Find all of our bulk melt and pour soap bases that we offer here.
