Product Details
Grandma's Lye Soap is a pure, mild and natural soap. Detergent and fragrance free. It is highly recommended for dry skin. One bar lasts about a month.
History of Lye Soap
In the past, people made two kinds of lye soap at home; mild lye soap (like Grandma's) for bathing, and a stronger version for laundry. The stronger version is where all the lye soap jokes originated.
Lye is used in the making of all soaps. During the process of changing the oils into soap, called saponification, all of the lye is used up in the finished product. It is during the saponification process that natural glycerin is created. While most commercial soap manufacturers remove much of the glycerin from their products, Grandma's Lye Soap retains all of the natural glycerin. That's why our soap is pure soap and very good for your skin.
Cheaper soap is not better soap. Commercial soap manufacturers have found ways to reduce the cost of soap by adding sulfate detergents and other additives. While detergents are great cleansers they remove the natural oils from the skin and may cause your skin to be dry and itchy. Prevent detergent burned hands by using only our pure soap for hands and bath.
Testimonials
"I have developed an allergy to many soaps and I bought your soap and loved it. Thank you so much for making these soaps. I am not allergic to it." - G. Sorman
"I have had continuous problems with dry, itchy skin. I was at our local health store and asked if she knew of anything. She recommended Grandma's Lye Soap and I loved it! I use this product in the shower as a shampoo, shaving cream and, well, soap. I just lather it up in my hands to put on my legs or put in my hair. My legs have never been so smooth. My hair is so soft I don't have to put any other products in it. I love this stuff! I've always had a problem with acne as well and it's cleared that up too!" - E. Moses
