Why Organic Vegan Soap Is Better Than Regular Soap

By Ann Thomas


Because of the wellness and environmental health revolution, a lot of people have become more aware of their health and the health of the environment. It is due to this cause that people have been switching from regular skin care products to natural ones that are less harmful. Organic vegan soap is a big thing these days as these are very good for the environment and the body.

Before going into the benefits, it is best to know a little more about soaps like these. First of all, it can be inferred from the name right away that it is made out of vegetables and herbs, hence the term vegan. With this in mind, buyers are guaranteed that only organic vegetables are used in production of these kinds of products.

It is a common fact that animal fat as well as other chemicals are used in the production of soaps. Of course, animal rights advocates are against this because animals are being slaughtered to create these skincare products. Vegan soaps are a big hit among animal rights advocates because these products do not make use of any animal parts whatsoever, just vegetables.

Of course, it can also be inferred that because there are no animal facts present, then these products are better for skin. A lot of people have soap allergies because the chemical reaction between animal fat and chemicals can sometimes be very strong. Vegetable extract mixed along with these chemicals, however, is not that strong as compared to fat.

Now, aside from the fact that animal fat is used for making regular soaps, there are also artificial scents injected into them. These artificial scents are not good for the skin because they are too strong, especially to people with really sensitive skin. Soaps made of vegetables, on the other hand, are very weak and there will not affect the skin badly.

After knowing that these soaps are very safe for the body, it is also good to know that they are safe for the environment as well. Aside from being safe for the animals, these soaps are also good for the water system too. Being natural has its perks especially when it mixes with water.

When this happens, the water that goes down the drain along with the lather will go into a big water system somewhere deep in the sewers. After that, the chemicals would mix with the water in the sewer and will contaminate the water. Although there is a filter that can clean the water, it will not be able to clean everything.

As compared to organic soaps, all the ingredients are natural which would make the lather that come from these soaps rather safe for the water. Although there still are some chemicals inside these soaps, the filters will not have such a hard time cleaning up the water. This is why using these natural soaps are actually beneficial to the environment.

With all these benefits, it can definitely be said that organic vegan soaps are better than regular ones. One can protect himself and the environment at the same time. Use these types of soaps in order to have a healthy body and environment.
