There are three primary reasons why I started making soaps.
1. There is zero damage for both nature and body
2. I can make specific soaps for my or my precious ones’ conditions
3. It is way more financially reasonable than purchasing these at the store
Artificial stuff tends to have a negative influence on nature and there is high possibility that it has some effects on our health. It is simply because they are not from nature, but artificial manmade stuff.
I wanted to pursue a more sustainable life for both myself and the mother earth.
If I make soaps myself, I can pick ingredients so that I can directly approach our skin conditions.
For example, if my skin is getting drier, I use olive oil and honey to moisturize it.
If I get pimples or a cut, red palm oil can be my option to address them.
If I would like to treat my hair nicely, I can try rosemary soaps and so on.
Not only for me+ if it goes well with my body, I can make them for my family and friends also. I feel extremely happy when my soaps do anything good for my people! :)
I actually could look for these organic soaps at store or online also.
The problem was that it is SO expensive to get them in Japan! I can’t spend 15 or 20 dollars just for a single bar soap.
If I make it myself, the cost is way less, hence I decided to do it myself.
I can’t forget the feeling I got when I first used my handmade soap back in Hiroshima.
It was so gentle that I couldn’t help but feel so relieved and my tensed body got relaxed immediately.
The feeling was the very “sotto” – gentle.
So I would like you to try and feel it as well if you are interested! Hopefully you like it! :)
All my creations are made only from plant oils, sodium hydroxide, and some natural additions. (e.g. herbs, spices, essential oils, honey, milk, etc.) It is a totally guilt-free soap. haha
Please enjoy! :)))
