Under the European Solidarity Corps project, our volunteers have created a creativity club and every week they implement different kind of activities. last week they tried to make homemade soap and the result was very impressive

Celie, a volunteer from France is the leader of creativity club and she tells more about the homemade soap.

Why should you make handmade soap ? 

The most common reasons for making handmade soap are:

  1. Save money: “making nice soap is the same cost as buying cheap soap at the store. Making basic soap is cheaper than buying it.” Katie Shaw
  2. Get a superior product: industrial soap uses many irritating products… It’s not good for the skin, but a handmade one is really good and natural.
  3. Have fun: If you like baking, this activity is for you! First, You start with a basic recipe and then customize the colour, design, and fragrance. Perfect for friends afternoon! 

So what do you think? Will you make soap at home too?
