Melt and Pour Soaps, are they lye free?


Melt & Pour clear soap (store bought NOT handcrafted)
Some people think that using a melt & pour soap base is a good way to get around using lye. While this may be true, first off the melt & pour soap was made with lye by somebody else, so it was still involved in the process, and secondly, the melt & pour bases often have questionable ingredients in them, like sodium lauryl sulfate (known to be irritating), so if you’re worried about irritation, handcrafted soaps from scratch are your best option.
