Benefits of Clay Soaps

There's a reason clay continues to be used in soaps and skincare products for so long. It can do wonders for all skin types. Benefits of using clays in soaps include

Draws Out Impurities – Our skin collects dirt, grime, and even pollutants in the air as we go about our days. Clay soap helps detoxify your skin by cleansing deep within your pores and drawing all the impurities collected throughout the day.

Reduces Excess Oils – Oily skin can be tough to control. Clays like Kaolin and Bentonite help remove excess sebum and reduce the oil buildup on your skin. It can also help reduce and prevent acne breakouts.

Gently Exfoliates – Clays contain super fine minerals from the earth that gently exfoliate and help remove dead skin cells to reveal radiant skin. Removing dead skin cells can help boost your skin's elasticity and collagen production, giving you a youthful glow.

Rich in Minerals – The clay used in soaps are derived from mineral-rich deposits worldwide. The minerals provide substantial health benefits for your skin to aid in drawing out the impurities, stimulate cell growth, and provide you with healthier skin.

How Does Bamboo Charcoal Work in Skincare?

When activated charcoal is placed within skincare products, it can draw out the dirt and debris that's located in the pores of your skin, which helps to make the skin appear to be healthier and less grimy. After you've spent a long day working or running errands, bamboo charcoal can help to rejuvenate your skin and restore its appearance. The reason why bamboo charcoal is used as an ingredient in skincare products is because it can:
Exfoliate drying skin to remove dead skin cells
Be applied to every skin type, which makes it highly versatile when used in skincare
Help with the reduction of acne
Cleans the skin by removing impurities and pollutants that are found deep in the pores of your skin
Adsorbs a wide range of impurities even when only a small amount of the substance is placed in the skincare product
Has anti-fungal, anti-microbial, anti-bacterial, and anti-viral properties
Acts As a Cleanser
Since bamboo charcoal is able to adsorb toxins, impurities, and free radicals, this substance can act as a potent skin cleanser, which means that your skin will become healthier after bamboo charcoal is applied. As a cleanser, bamboo charcoal can also kill all viruses on contact.

Very Absorbent
As touched upon previously, bamboo charcoal being injected with steam helps to provide the substance with a larger surface area, which makes it very adsorbent. These characteristics allow the substance to clean your pores of toxins, free radicals, dirt, and debris.

Can Help You Detoxify
Detoxification involves ridding your body and skin of toxic substances. The removal of these toxins should improve your overall health.

Can Adsorb Odors
As mentioned previously, bamboo charcoal was used by the Egyptians in 1,500 BC to get rid of the foul odors that occurred with wounds. The same principles apply today, which means that placing this substance on your skin can help you get rid of any unwanted odors.

Clears Up Skin Conditions
If you suffer from various skin conditions like acne, cold sores, or hives, spreading some bamboo charcoal on the affected areas of your skin can clear up these conditions. It's important to treat these conditions quickly if you want to prevent the development of scarring and blemishes.

Pine needles keep skin healthy
Pine needles have antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Use the tea as a face wash to remove excess oil and prevent acne. Thanks to the astringent elements in them, the tea pulls the skin together, reducing pore size and fine wrinkles.

Pine needles have anti-aging properties
The strong antioxidant action of the pine needle tea may help prevent premature aging due to UV radiation. Drinking the tea and applying the tincture on skin exposed to the sun may help reduce the damage to the skin tissue. The high vitamin C content helps in the production of collagen, the skin protein that helps keep the skin smooth and supple.

It's oil that's been extracted from the neem tree or nimtree (Azadirachta indica), specifically from the bark and seeds of the tree, which is native to India, Burma, and Sri Lanka. Neem oil has been used by humans for centuries as a natural treatment for a variety of conditions due to neem oil’s anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, antioxidant, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antihyperglycaemic, antiulcer, antimalarial, antimutagenic, and anticarcinogenic properties.

What is Calendula?
Calendula (Calendula officinalis) belongs to the plant family Asteraceae and is native to the Mediterranean region of Europe, although it can now be found brightening gardens all around the world. It is a very common plant used in herbal medicine.

A broad array of medicinal compounds in the flowers of the plant, including beneficial essential oils, flavonoids, saponins, triterpene alcohols, and carotenes are what give it its power.

The healing properties of calendula:

anti-inflammatory
antiseptic
antiviral
anti-fungal
antibacterial
That’s a lot of antis. And we like that – it’s why calendula for dogs is so widely used in the holistic world.

How to Use Calendula for Dogs
Historically, calendula was used for headaches, eye infections, fever, and toothaches. People put it in soups and salads, and used the petals as natural dyes for all kinds of foods and textiles.

Today we use it for all types of herbal healing, particularly when it comes to our pets. Calendula has an exceptional safety profile and is safe to use for dogs of all ages (just avoid using on pregnant animals because it may cause uterine contractions).

You can use calendula for dogs both externally and internally.

1. Externally

Calendula is the ideal go-to for many minor first-aid situations, including:

insect bites
bruises
blisters
cuts and scrapes
burns
dry, cracked skin
Calendula is used to keep wounds clean and help new tissue to grow. It can help relieve tenderness, redness, or inflammation at the site of the wound, speed up cell reproduction, and inhibit bacteria growth at the site of injury.

Additionally, the antibacterial agents in calendula can help prevent secondary infection, which also helps boost healing.

It’s also very moisturizing, which makes it good for soothing dry, cracked paw pads and noses.

Each bar is about 145 gr, $7 each.

Some information about the key ingredient.

The Science of Mustard’s Cleaning Power
So what is it about mustard that makes it such an effective cleaner? The key lies in its chemical composition. Mustard contains a compound called allyl isothiocyanate, which is responsible for its pungent aroma and signature spicy kick. This compound is also a powerful natural surfactant, meaning it has the ability to break down and lift away dirt, grease, and other grime from surfaces.

Surfactants work by attaching to both water-soluble and oil-soluble substances, emulsifying them so they can be easily rinsed away. In the case of mustard, the allyl isothiocyanate acts as a natural surfactant, allowing it to effectively cut through all kinds of stuck-on messes. Additionally, mustard’s acidic pH also contributes to its cleaning prowess, helping to dissolve and break down buildup.

Another key factor is mustard’s abrasive texture. The tiny mustard seeds that give the condiment its signature graininess provide a gentle scrubbing action that can help loosen and lift away stubborn dirt and stains. This makes mustard an ideal natural alternative to harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbing pads.

Perhaps best of all, mustard is completely non-toxic and environmentally-friendly. Unlike many commercial cleaning products that contain harsh chemicals, mustard is derived from natural plant sources and biodegrades easily, making it a safe and sustainable choice for your home. https://removeanystains.com/mustard-as-a-cleaning-agent/

15. Soap for cleaning/gentle hand-washing delicate cloth.
Ingredients: 100% Coconut oil with only 2% of super-fat, Water, Lye.

Some infromation about the key ingredients.

Coconut oil known for creating firm soap bars, coconut oil is a favorite among soap makers. Its saturated fats help to harden the soap, making it last longer.

Soap with coconut oil cleans well and moisturizes without getting soggy or melting away too quickly. It’s a crucial ingredient for soaps that stand the test of time.

100% Coconut oil makes the strongest cleaning power in soaps. Comparing with "Gardener" soap, that has 20% of super-fat, it has only 2%. Super-fat is % of oil that didn't get into reaction with lye and stay loose in soaps. In "Gardener" you will get strong cleaning power and plus a moisturizing effect, thanks to 20% of loose coconut oil. In soap for cleaning you do not need loose oils, so this soap cleans very well and sometimes may even dry your skin since there is almost no loose oil to moisturize the skin.
