soap ripes... and dries out in the process, regardless of humidity. that's why store bought soaps contain various additives...

there's only a handful of ingredients to make soap - all available in your local chemistry supplies or pharmacy. everything else is either for nicer bubbles, better smell or longer shelflife.

Minimal list:

fat / oil
pure lye
distilled water
anything to make the soap smell nice and have any color (without those, you get that light brown-ish lump grandma used for washing out stains from clothes)

edit: YES, anyone can make soap at home

it dried out - as natural soaps do.

I don't think that's engraved.. more like sublimation print, that is easy to polish off and reprint.

The machinery for it is relatively affordable: https://m-eur.vevor.com/heat-press-machine-c_11148/6-in-1-heat-press-sublimation-machine-12-x-15-inch-heat-press-machine-mug-shoes-p_010693832095
