You might also hear it called wool fat, wool wax, or wool grease. I prefer to call it lanolin – it just sounds classier. It’s name comes from the Latin words LANA for wool and OLEUM for oil. It’s really a wax, chemically speaking, but has been called an oil or grease for centuries.

Cold Process Soap Vs Hot Process Soap
Cold Process Soap Vs Hot Process Soap
It is very difficult for people to tell them apart, unless much information and education is given to the public. The usual soap that we purchase from the supermarkets is made using hot process, as it is a much faster process to make soap commercially, and it is a much more business viable way to manufacture soap in large batches in a shorter processing time, as to maximize profits. However, in the hot process manufacture of soap, also known as cooked soap, the glycerin in the soap is removed as a by-product of the heating process together with the lye that is waste.
Glycerin is a natural humectant that draws moisture to our skin and maintains the water balance in the intercellular matrix. It helps to keep the the homeostasis of the skin in optimum balance. It is the glycerin in the soap that makes our skin remain hydrated and soft after our baths. The hot process soap normally found over the counter in the supermarkets is devoid of this important element, that is glycerin. Without glycerin, our skin can appear to be very dry, even after applying lotions.
