Reading a soap ingredient list
Sodium Olivate is just olive oil, turned into soap.
In soap, plant oils are turned into soap by a reaction with lye. That is why you see names like Sodium Olivate (from olive oil) and Sodium Cocoate (from coconut oil). Colours show as Mica and CI numbers, and scent as the named essential oil plus any allergen it naturally contains. If you have a nut allergy, check for almond, coconut and shea. This is general information, not medical advice.
