[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 546124, member: 1211"] I've read a discussion about this before, but I'm not sure I'm remembering it correctly. Most soaps today don't have glycerine, or at least much glycerine in them. Shaving soaps have a good component of glycerine, which is why they don't dry your face out from daily, long exposure use. My guess is that artisan soaps outside of shaving also add, use, or leave in glycerine to give that same benefit. As well as using other more pricey fats and oils rather than long lists of chemicals that cost fractions of pennies. The box that holds a bar of soap at Walmart probably costs more to manufacture than the soap itself. [/QUOTE]
