Are Whats That Smell soaps.. lye soaps?
In a word yes. NO LYE = NO SOAP!!! You cannot have soap without the
use of a caustic, or alkali base. We use a base of sodium hydroxide (lye) and a liquid, such as distilled water, rain water,
milk, coffee, or aloe vera juice. The base reacts with the oils in a process called saponification, a technical name
for making soap. You cannot make any form of soap without lye, not even commercial soap!
What about your colors and scents in your
products?
Whats That Smell uses only synthetic fragrances. We have a high demand
for food, floral, designer, and earth scents which cannot be created with use of essential oils. Essential oils will be used
in the near future in all of our products. As for coloring, We use quality lab colors & pigments that are FDA approved
& skin safe. Some products color naturally due to the fragrance, and others are colored to match the fragrance used in
the product.
As with any product, if skin irritation
occurs discontinue use.
