This video discusses everything I've learned about palm oil and soap making. What is palm oil? What is it used for? Why is it in everything!? What are the issues and problems with it (eg. deforestation/habitat loss)? Why is palm oil so good for soap making? Do we need to avoid it in our soap recipes? What to do!!??? 🤯
