What makes "green" soaps different from other kinds?

Answer by  tamarawilhite (17883)

'Green' soaps are touted as ecologically friendly and better for you. Primary distinguishing characteristics of 'green' soaps is that: 1. They do not contain lard / animal fat as an ingredient 2. They will use plant oils instead of artificial scents or coloring. 3. They usually avoid artificial chemicals in general in the manufacturing process.

If something is 'green' that means it is environmentally friendly. If the product is soap, it may/may not also be all natural or organic. Often, 'green' products will cost more than the commercial brands will, just try to remember that you're making a choice that's good for the environment.

They are all natural so you don't have to worry about any additives or chemicals, that can be harsh to your skin.They are also better for your skin and easier on people or children who have sensitive skin and break out easily.
