Maslinovo ulje / Olive oil

Jedan od prvih sapuna koje smo napravile je onaj sa 70% maslinovog ulja. Uz maslinovo, dodale smo još kokosovo i ricinusovo ulje. Sapun koji je napravljen samo od maslinovog ulja zove se Castile, a mi smo se odlučile za varijantu sa 70% maslinovog ulja jer nam se čini da on ima bogatiju sapunicu ali to ne znači da nećemo jednom probati napraviti Castile sapun.

Inače, maslinovo ulje ima odlična svojstva za kožu. Spriječava gubitak vlažnosti kože, omekšava kožu, čini ju glatkom i mladolikom. Sadrži razne antioksidanse te vitamine A i E. Ti antioksidansi stvaraju zaštitnu barijeru koja zadržava vlagu na koži. Mnogi industrijski proizvedeni proizvodi za kožu koji daju vlagu koži u isto vrijeme i začepljuju pore što nije slučaj s maslinovim uljem te je stoga odlično za korištenje na koži.

One of the first soap that we made ​​is the one with 70% olive oil. We added also coconut and castor oil. Soap that is made only from olive oil is called Castile, and we opted for a variant with 70% olive oil, because it seems that it has a richer lather, but it does not mean that we will not try to make a Castile soap once.

Otherwise, olive oil has excellent properties for skin. It prevents loss of skin moisture, soften skin, makes it smooth and youthful. Includes a variety of antioxidants and vitamins A and E. These antioxidants creates a protective barrier that keeps moisture in the skin. Many industrially manufactured products for the skin that give skin moisture at the same time clog the pores what is not the case with olive oil and is therefore excellent for use on skin.

Evo i dvije (ne baš najbolje) slike naših sapuna sa 70% maslinovog ulja (na vrhu je sapun bez ikakvih dodataka, a ispod su sapuni u koje smo dodali zobene pahuljice):

Here are two (not so good) photos of our soap with 70% olive oil (at the top is the soap with no additives, and below are the soaps that we add oatmeal):
