When choosing a luxury bar of soap, you can consider things like:
The use of soap as a cleaning agent probably reaches back to the beginning of civilization. Written references to soap were found on Sumerian clay tablets in Mesopotamia dated around 2500 BC; inscriptions on the clay cylinders say that fats were boiled with ashes. It has been suggested that the soap, made by boiling fat with ashes, was being made in Babylon as early as 2800 BC and surely they used it for washing garments.
Pliny the Elder mentions that soap was being produced from tallow and beech ashes by the Phoenicians in 600 BC. It was used widely throughout the Roman Empire: the excavation of Pompeii, covered by the volcanic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79, indicated the presence of a full- fledged soapmaking establishment. A physician, Priscianus (385 AD) reported the use of soap as a shampoo, and mentions, as Galen did, its use for washing the body and made also the first mention of the trade of “saponarius”, or soap- boiler. Galen moreover recommended soap for both medicinal and cleansing purposes.
The word itself came from Roman myth: many burnt offerings of animals were made to the Goddess Athena and the other Gods on the mountain Sapo (or Sappo). Women cleaning clothes downstream, in the river Tiber, found that there was a special quality to the water there that made their cleaning chores easier.
The fats from the sacrificed animals were washed through the ashes of the fires, making a crude soap: they said that it was a gift from the Goddess of arts and crafts. An alternative suggestion for the derivation of the name is that the Romans learned the art of soapmaking from the Celts, who called it “saipo”. In fact the latin word “sapo” is cognate with the word “sebum”, tallow.
In soap, herbs add color and texture. Many soap-makers also believe that the medicinal value of herbs can come through in soaps made with them. As with other natural substances, not all herbs are beneficial to humans, there are in fact poisonous herbs that should always be avoided, there are some other herbs that, while not toxic, are dermal irritants and should not be used on the skin: make sure to do your research and be responsible and informed when deciding what to use in your soaps!
Use only herbs and flowers that are clean and free of insecticides and chemicals. Spray residues on plant material can irritate your skin. I prefer to use plants that I have grown myself; when this is not possible, purchase herbs (organically grown) from a natural food store or buy them fresh from the market and dry them yourself.
