How soap works.....

Soap is a very effective hand and body cleanser. However, not only does it cleanse it also sanitizes by destroying bacteria and viruses.
The purpose of washing is to remove the outer layer of oils and fats that harbor germs and rinse them away from the skin. This can only be done if we wash with something that can attach to fat molecules. Water alone cannot do this because it cannot attach itself to a fat molecule as oil and water do not mix.
However, if you take a fat oil and boil it up with an alkali a reaction happens. This is called saponification, which turns the mixture into soap.
What this reaction does is place a water loving tail onto the fatty acid molecule. This is called soap and this molecule can attach to a water molecule and a fat molecule at the same time.
Therefore, when you wash with soap and water the soap molecules grab on to the fat molecules and pulls them off the skin into the rinse water. When your rinse the skin the fat and germs are removed from the skin. Therefore, the main reason why soap cleanses and sanitizes is it literally washes everything off the skin.
Soap works effectively at combating a virus. This is because soap molecules attach to the fatty molecules within a virus and rip it apart.
Upon washing your hands always ensure that you dry them thoroughly so that no rinse water remains on the skin.

Just received soaps purchased for myself and gifts to daughters. The mailing box itself smelled wonderful and when opened each scent was lovely. I had a hard time deciding which to keep and which to send but the angel on my shoulder won out and each daughter loved her selected fragrance.

HEAVENLY!

Glorious fragrance! Creamy, quick to lather, also beautiful wrapping paper (which I'll keep). Combination of fragrances is UNIQUE and PERFECT, and the same goes for the other 3 soaps I purchased, but won't be using until this one is finished, so won't review them. To keep the bathroom smelling great, I set the block of soap on its long narrow side, so the fragrance permeates the room and the bar doesn't get mushy in the soapdish. The other soaps are on a shelf also smelling wonderful rather than stored in closet -- so pretty too! Delighted with all the Kew Gdns possibilities for gifts.

Kew Gardens bar soap is absolutely of the highest quality. Long lasting, a pleasant but not overwhelming scent and of course lovely packaging make this a wonderful gift (especially to yourself!).

What a treat!

I bought 3 Kew Gardens soaps and am truly pleased. The bars are large and the lather is luxurious; the scents are very strong which may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I like how it scents the entire room. Well priced and fast shipping are also pluses for Kinsman Co.

A wonderful Soap

This is by far the best smelling soap I have ever purchased. The aroma fills the entire bathroom. I will definitely purchase more in the future for gifts.

I bought several of each soap and find the scents to be true & strong. Since the packaging is absolutely gorgeous, these will be perfect gifts for my gardening friends. Haven't yet decided which one to keep for myself to actually use, but right now they are making all my drawers & linens smell heavenly.
