Brilio.net - Maintaining body cleanliness is mandatory to avoid various diseases, one of which is by bathing twice a day. When bathing, people will use soap to remove bacteria and dirt stuck to the surface of the body's skin. The reason is, soap contains cleaning agents that are effective in cleaning the skin from dirt.
There are various types of soap, such as liquid soap and bar soap. Bar soap is one of the most popular types of bath soap . The cheap price and easy storage make this type of soap popular with the public. The main advantage of bar soap lies in its economical value.
Apart from being cheaper, bar soap also doesn't run out easily and lasts longer. It is not surprising that until now, many factories or producers are competing to create bar soap with their own qualities and characteristics. But have you ever seen the process of making bar soap?
Usually bar soap is processed using hygienic machines and is printed automatically. Even the wrapping process also uses machines, so there is not much human intervention. But apparently, there are still several home producers who make bar soap manually.
Even though it's manual, the quality is no less than factory soap, you know. The packaging also looks neat like an automatic machine. The following are 11 portraits of completely manual home soap making , reported by briliobeauty.net from the Creative Ability YouTube account, Friday (10/5).
