Sodium hydroxideis essential to soap production. It facilitates the saponification process and the final product is totally safe for use. The saponification process is a chemical reaction between sodium hydroxide and oils or fats, which creates soap and glycerol. The sodium hydroxide breaks down the fats and oils into soap molecules, which are then suspended in the water and can be washed away. Real soap, as opposed to detergents, must always include sodium hydroxide as an ingredient. Without it, the soap would not be able to form the molecules necessary for it to be effective as a cleanser.
