Hi All,
I've been making soap for a few years and have yet to try adding any food products to my soap.
I have two questions re: food and soap.
1) Does it really impart any benefit to the soap, or is it just for label appeal?
2) Does it increase the chances of rancidity?
Personally, I'm not sure I would like bathing with something that had pumpkin puree or carrot juice in it, but if there
are benefits, I'd give it a go!
I know there are all sorts of threads re: the addition of food products and how and when to add them.
Just wasn't sure of the point.
Many thanks!
