*🍋 What’s Citric Acid Doing in My Soap?
Citric acid is a natural compound found in fruits like lemons and limes. In soapmaking, it reacts with a small amount of sodium hydroxide to create a natural chelator — a helpful ingredient that binds to minerals in water and helps prevent soap scum.

This makes your soap last longer, rinse cleaner, and feel even better on your skin — no harsh chemicals needed.

**🧼 Why Is Sodium Hydroxide in Soap?
Sodium hydroxide (also known as lye) is a natural and essential ingredient in traditional soapmaking. It might sound strong, but here’s the truth: without sodium hydroxide, there is no soap. It’s what allows oils and butters to transform through a process called saponification — the magical chemical reaction that creates real soap.

Rest assured, no sodium hydroxide remains in the final product. Once saponification is complete, it’s all gone — leaving behind only gentle, nourishing soap that’s safe for your skin and made with care.
