“All Natural” soap ingredients

I know I’ve said it a thousand times and have heard it even more than that. I want all natural ingredients in my home care products. Then I got to thinking. Most of those ingredients are “all natural”. Think about it. Petroleum is all natural. It occurs in nature when a living organism dies and decomposes, mostly ancient plants and animals. Then there’s placenta -- the organ which houses the fetal tissue of the unborn, human or animal. There’s animal bi-products, the parts you don’t eat; which with some animals isn’t very much that’s not eaten. Urea, is bi-product of natural excretion. It’s what’s produced by mammilian systems when proteins are broken down and excreted in the urine of mammals. The plant based urea is actually a combination of chemicals and ammonia. Also known as keratolytic, it’s supposed to be very good for the skin. Some of this stuff, actually most of it, is why I use soap in the first place. So, in light of all this, what I should be saying is I want non-waste product soap, as opposed to all natural soap. And SoapsByDesign (I) produces “all natural”, non waste-product soap.

Selling Scented Soaps Online?

I’ve been soaping for a few years now, but only skin care bars, like Oatmeal and such. Eczema kind of runs in my family so that’s actually how I got started soap making.  Whenever I wanted something fragrantly sexy I’d go to the big box store, you know the one. Then I thought, why am I buying this stuff when I can make it? So I borrowed some body oils from some folks I live with and added them to the mix. What a surprise! Oh and the possibilities were endless. Nothing was safe from Soapsie. I’ve even started blending my own fragrances. As with all worthwhile hobbies, this one is expensive and the products kind of build up. So, question. How do I sell all these fabulous fragrances on line? Technology hasn’t caught up with this.
