Glycerin Soap Benefits

Many people suffer from sensitive skin these days because of the increasingly toxic environment. The skin is exposed to a lot of harmful substances which get absorbed inside and lead to various skin disorders. Choosing the right skin care products becomes a daunting task in such cases. Nobody will want to use beauty products which will cause irritation to the skin. If you have the same fear in your mind, glycerin soap can come to your rescue. There are several glycerin soap benefits. Let us have a look at them. But before that let us learn what is glycerin.

This particular sensitive skin care product is made with glycerol(hence the name), which is a naturally-occurring biochemical substance that is a component of fats and oils. It is in fact a form of sugar alcohol inside our bodies it acts as a solvent that helps to down the nutrients from the food we eat into a usable form of energy; without glycerol, we would literally starve to death even if we were full. Glycerol is extracted from animal fats or (preferably) vegetable oils through the rendering process which involves the use of lye. Most manufacturers of mass-produced commercial soaps remove the glycerol. However, in most homemade and artisan-crafted soaps (such as you might purchase at a local farmer’s market), glycerin is a primary ingredient.

Funny Soap

People have been making cute little soaps for quite some time, so making them in an odd shape is nothing all that new.  Yet I’m fairly sure that this is the first time I’ve actually come across soap with a bit of geek appeal.  This soap mouse, is said to have left the mouse pad, due to being a bit discontent.  The design company, Yeduo, show the mouse in two different colors, white and black.  If only they had attached a cord and made the extremely childish soap-on-a-rope reference.

The nice thing is that there are a great deal of people that like to try out new designs when it comes to creating their own soap.  Luckily those people like to make their way onto sites like Etsy.  So even though this particular designer doesn’t give any purchase information, I’m sure if you browsed the net long enough you could find a similar item.  You could also contact the designer and likely get a bit more information about the purchase info on the soap.

Gmail Soap

Google has done tons of cool promos in the past, but this one is pretty unique. Soapvertising comes in many forms, such as putting lots and lots of stuff on your soap label, but this Russian promotion for Gmail was targeted at students and used actual soap to promote their advanced spam protection. Part of the concept was that the spam filtering "cleans" the email, but also, the Russian words for soap and email also sound the same.

Hamam beauty soap

The Hammam massage has developed from the Islamic ritual cleansing in steam baths. It involves a combination of cleansing the body and massage. The procedure It starts with a warm-up phase in a steam bath to ensure that the body and skin are well-supplied with blood. Then first of all a traditional full body peeling is carried out with a “Kese”, a glove made of raw silk or goat's wool, which is rubbed over the entire body to remove dead skin cells.On a wet massage bench (traditionaly on a marble slab) lying face down to start with and finishing by lying on the back. This is followed by pouring water over the body with the “Tas”, a copper bowl. The genital area will be scrupulously covered with “Pestemals” (Turkish cotton towels).

The high point is then the soap lathering massage an olive oil soap is used to create a lather all over the body before a mountain of soapy foam is spread over the guest with the soap lathering bag. First of all lying on your back and, to finish, lying face down once again. The massage itself is then carried out with the aid of this foam, with the result that at the end your skin is truly “squeaky clean”.

Johnson’s Baby Oil Gel

If you like the moisturizing properties of mineral oil, but want something that is a little thicker, then Johnson’s Baby Oil Gel is the product to try. It comes in Shea & Cocoa Butter, Aloe Vera & Vitamin E, and Chamomiles & Multi-Vitamin Complex varieties. The gel is thick, yet still oily enough to glide onto your skin easily. 

This will give your legs a slight glint in the light, but they won’t look covered in oil. According to the packaging, it “locks in up to 10 times more moisture on wet skin than an ordinary lotion can on dry skin.” The Shea & Cocoa Butter smells exactly as it sounds, so don’t be surprised if you want to head to the beach after putting the gel on. It’s recommended to apply onto wet skin for adults, then pat dry. For babies, you can use it daily to help keep the skin feeling soft while locking in moisture.

Johnson Johnson Baby

Johnson’s new Baby Creamy Oils come in two varieties – Aloe Vera & Vitamin E and Cocoa & Shea Butter. They are advertised as having a “non-greasy rich, creamy texture” which I found to be absolutely true. The baby creamy oil doesn’t leave an oily or greasy feeling at all. Generally, lotion that moisturizes as well as this lotion does leaves a residue of oiliness or greasiness, but this one leaves your skin feeling clean while still providing incredible moisture. 

 When you put it on, you’ll find that your skin doesn’t look oily or shiny- it looks dry (as in not wet,_ yet is still moisturized. When you rub your hands after applying the lotion, it almost feels as if you have a small amount of the baby powder on your hands, keeping them dry and smooth. Both testers thought that this was hands down the best lotion ever used.

New Lux Soap

New Lux Soap I recently obtained a three-pack of Lux soap from the local Kroger. I find the trend of only distributing soaps in multi-packs to be an annoying drain on my cash flow, and would like to see more individual packaging for soaps. This form of trickery reflects poorly on the manufacturers, but has absolutely no effect on the soap's quality. Still, it's a lousy way to have to start a review.
