The number one ingredient in commercially produced soaps seems to be sodium tallowate.
This product is nothing more than slaughterhouse waste. It can include internal organs, brain matter, etc. This is then rendered for the tallow. Bottom line is.....it's cheap but not good for your skin. Most commercially produced soaps are in fact detergents and the bottom line is............they're cheap to produce.

Also look for these ingredients in your soap:
  • Sodium Isethionate (an amphoteric detergent to make a dense lather);
  • Propylene Glycol (high exposure can cause serious health conditions such as heart damage and damage to the central nervous system);
  • Pentasodium Pentate (an inorganic salt used as a water softener and can be an eye irritant);
  • Tetrasodium EDTA (synthetic preservative wich can cause eye irritation and irritation to the mucous membranes);
  • Sodium Cocoylisethionate (synthetic detergent);
  • BHT (synthetic antioxidant to keep oils from going rancid and when ingested is implicated in tumor formation and liver enlargement in rodent tests)


Most commercially produced soaps that claim to be "Pure" and "Natural" contain fragrance and colorants.

Jenness Farm soaps contain: Goat milk, olive oil, coconut oil, palm kernel oil, palm oil, soybean oil, sodium hydroxide*.

Baby Cakes soap contains avacado oil as well.

Herbal Shampoo Bar contains castor oil as well.

*Sodium hydroxide is not present in the final bar of soap as the chemical reaction of soaponification causes it to become a salt.
