What is CP Soap? CP Soap is the short abbreviation for Cold Process Soap. This soap is handmade and produced through the saponification process.
What is Saponification? "Saponification" is the name given to the chemical reaction by which an alkali (usually sodium hydroxide—also called caustic soda or lye) reacts with fats and oils to make soap.
Is there lye in your soap? No. Lye is needed to make any form of handcrafted soap, but the critical thing to remember is that no lye remains in the final bar of soap. What is left is a pure, clean, and long-lasting bar of soap.
How long do you cure your soap? A minimum of 4-6 weeks ensures a hard, long-lasting, mild bar of clean soap.
How long will my soap last? It depends entirely on you as the bath lover or shower taker. Handmade soap will last anywhere from several weeks to several months. The bar will last longer if it is allowed to dry between uses and is not set directly in a shower stream or on a soap dish that holds water.
I have allergies, do I need to be concerned about any of the products? We use high-quality, natural ingredients. However, if you are concerned about an allergic reaction, please test the product on a small area of skin first and stop using it immediately if irritation occurs.
Are products on Sweet Bea's approved by the FDA? None of the health topics and products sold and presented at Sweet Bea's have been evaluated or approved by the FDA. They should not replace personal judgment or medical treatment when indicated, nor are they intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. We cannot be responsible for any allergies or adverse reactions to this product.
Do you offer any refunds for products that melt during shipping? I use very few stabilizers or preservatives in my products, making them vulnerable to the weather. Shipping during cold or hot weather may cause freezing or melting, which will definitely alter the texture of products like body butter and lotion bars.
-
If the product has melted when you receive it, simply put it in the refrigerator for a few minutes so it can re-solidify.
-
If the product is frozen, allow it to heat up to room temperature.
I will not reship or offer any refunds for products that melt during shipping. Melting does not affect the wonderful skin nourishing benefits, and the products are still entirely safe to use.
