Faqs

Q: Is this a finished liquid soap?
A: Yes. It can be used as supplied or carefully customised for a particular application.

Q: Why does the lather differ from a commercial shower gel?
A: It is made from saponified vegetable oils rather than a synthetic surfactant system.

Q: Can it be diluted with water?
A: Yes, but dilution changes the concentration and microbial stability. Prepare small quantities or use a properly preserved and tested formula.

Q: Can it be used for hair?
A: It can be used as a traditional soap-based cleanser, although its alkaline nature may not suit every hair type.
