Benefits of Olive Oil Soap

Olive oil has been used in the process of soap making for thousands of years. Olive oil, like all fats and oils, is transformed into soap by adding lye (soda ash is very similar to lye). Over the centuries, the process of making soap from olive oil was commercialized. Different oils were mixed with olive oil, and additives, from algae to minerals, were utilized. This method made the soap less pure and minimized the benefits that a pure olive oil soap provides.

Angy Olive Oil Soap is produced with extra virgin olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the highest grade olive oil because it comes from the very first pressing of the olives, which is extracted without using any heat or chemicals.
