Answer 1

tomato soap is good for the skin as is a tomato, if you rub a half tomato on your skin it cleanses the pores and leaves your skin fresh,best to leave for a few minutes. tomatoes are high in anti oxidents and smooths and tightens the pores and is good for oily skin.

the soap  would be nicer and more convenient to use as, can you imagine what your face would look like after rubbing it with a tomato?

Answer 2

Tomatoes are messy, & too watery to apply.

Tomatoes have a natural acidity & are a source of  carotenoids like lycopene, beta-carotene, and vitamin E, which are effective antioxidants.  These vitamines & minerals  help balance your skin’s pH.  Tomatoes & tomato soap both cleanse oily conditions, refines enlarged pores, and provides soothing relief for troubled complexions.

When making tomato soap, you can add special herbs & oils (like Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Cocoa Butter), etc to get more benefits that come from the herbs & oil. For those who may find the naturally acidic nature of tomatoes too strong, it can be toned down when other ingredients are added.The soap is handier & more convenient to use.

Adding coconut oil when making soap will enable the soap to generate high-lather cleansing even in hard water.  Olive, Castor and Palm based soaps make a mild, smooth, creamy lather.
