This video discusses the benefits of making homemade natural soap over commercial soaps. It explains that natural soaps are made from olive oil, coconut oil, rice bran oil and lye which produce a mild, nourishing soap. They provide antioxidants, exfoliation without clogging pores, and hydrate the skin. Commercial soaps can strip the skin's oils and contain harsh chemicals, whereas natural soaps moisturize with glycerin and contain beneficial vegetable oils and botanicals. By producing less wasteful lather, natural soaps do not pollute waterways like commercial soap chemicals which treatment plants cannot fully remove.
