The Alchemist's Adventure into Handmade Soap

Encouraged by her crew mates aboard the HMS Helvetica, one self-proclaimed "chemistry geek" crew member began experimenting with various vegetable oils, all natural colorants and fragrances, and uncovered the secrets to making truly adventurous handmade soap. They nicknamed her "The Soap Alchemist." Expertly blending natural vegetable oils and sodium hydroxide, she has perfected the craft of soapmaking, producing bubbly bars of ultra-conditioning, gently cleansing all natural, handmade soap.

On her journey, she discovered just how much olive oil was necessary to make handmade soap bars that were creamy but not overly so. She learned that just a bit of coconut oil would harden the bars, and make them last longer, while providing a boost of cleansing power.

The Soap Alchemist's creativity grew with every batch of handmade soap she made.

In time, she learned to make beautiful handmade bars by swirling natural botanicals into the batter using several different techniques and handmade tools, and how to scent the soaps with pleasing natural floral and fruit essences.

With the crew and Captain cheering her on, The Soap Alchemist's adventurous soap making spirit has literally taken flight.

She and the crew of the allegorical HMS Helvetica travel the Google universe discovering and procuring new natural ingredients to handcraft her fanciful, skin-pleasing natural soaps.
