Hi...dear TJ...,
Thanks for choosing HCM..,
Soap is not keeping skin fresh and Healthy..,
But gives some support..,
If U get good selection of soap..,
Always look for...,
1) TFM value of soap...
TFM means Total Fat Mean Value..,
If it is high that soap treated as good soap..,
Good soap have minimum 70% TFM value...,
So every soap have it's own TFM value..,
2) If soap have low Ph ....treatyed as good soap..,
3) Good soap have loow surface tension and softness.,
it can give good foam even hard water....High PPF water..,
4) Non-smell, Clolourless, soft and frothy soaps are good ...,
ok,..thanQ
