There is something odd about soap on this modern world. Sometimes the soap wont even say soap, it'll say "washing liquid" or "surfactant" or something like that.
I dont like the liquid hand soaps, they are usually filled with so much "lotion" ( which means oil ) that it never fully washes off, especially if you lack a towel to dry with like 99% of public restrooms with that disgusting air dryer.
The same goes for laundry detergent. What's it made of and how much of it stays in thr clothes? I avoid anything that scents or "softens". Because "fabric softener" is just oil. I dislike hotel towels that have so much oil in them that they dont aborb much water and wont dry well.
And then when I search for normal soap made locally, all the soap sellers have a weird marketing gimmick to justify charging $8+ per bar.
I havent tried making my own, but that seems to be the only option. Lard and lye.
