One is it did not go through the saponification process, which is an age-old process of taking lye or sodium hydroxide,
And mixing it with fat.
And your audience will know this.
People that have a gluten intolerance can somehow tolerate like a sourdough bread because it went through this fermentation process.
Okay.
Well, the saponification process has similar features in that it takes this.
I mean, if you get lye on your skin, it's not a pretty thing.
But it takes this harsh chemical and it converts it into the most remarkable cleansing agent.
If it doesn't say so, this was probably the smartest thing the FDA ever did in the 1940s.
So we developed this really effective wound sanitary powder for World War II.
And of course, like many things we developed for World War II, the war's over.
And it's like, man, we're really good at making this powder.
We need to make cleansing agents out of it.
And the FDA said, you can do that, but you can't call it soap because it's not going through this process.
If it says body wash or beauty bar or cleansing, anything other than soap, then what that's telling you is that somewhere on the ingredient list is a really harsh cleansing agent that did not go through this age old process to
making it effective.
So it's hyper-stripping the oil off your skin.
And so with acne, to circle back to acne, what you put on your skin is important.
You want to stay away from anything that's going to stand in the way of your pores breathing.
But more importantly, you want to stop hyper-stripping all of the natural oil.
