Bar soap has evolved through the years, from the aesthetic aspect to functionality, chemical composition to manufacturing technology. However, such evolution has been mainly manifested by ingenuity in the finishing process - manufacturing technology or formulation. There was less technological breakthrough where the soap base is concerned; mainly manufactured by saponification of oils, neutralisation of fatty acids or to a lesser extent, transesterification of the fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) with their composition resembling blends of coconut/tallow or palm kernel/palm oil.
