Bath soaps are surfactants that are used to cleanse and maintain body hygiene. They are made from fish fats or vegetable oils combined with glycerin, propylene glycol, allantoin, triethanolamine, and alkaline solutions, such as caustic lye. This causes a chemical reaction that breaks down the ester bonds between the fatty acids and glycerol, resulting in aqueous soluble molecules. These compounds kill microorganisms by disorganizing their membrane bilayer and enable dirt to detach from the skin. As a result, bath soaps form an essential component of personal care routine as it helps unclog pores and remove dead cells from the skin.
