Provided herein are antimicrobial compositions comprising derivatives of lauric acid, and methods for preparing and using such compositions. As a non-limiting example, a process for preparing an antimicrobial composition may comprise: (1) a saponification step wherein a high-lauric vegetable oil is contacted with a strong base, thereby providing a high-laurate soap component; (2) a lipolysis step wherein a high-lauric vegetable oil is contacted with a lipase, thereby providing a lipolyzed oil composition comprising glycerol monolaurate; and (3) a combination step wherein the soap composition is combined with the lipolyzed oil composition, thereby providing the antimicrobial foaming soap composition.

A cleansing bar composition comprising at least one cleanser chosen from soap and surfactant; taurine, in free or salt form; and one or more hydrophobic stabilizing agents. The hydrophobic stabilizing agent prevents the crystallization of taurine on the surface of the cleansing bar. Also methods of making the cleansing bar to inhibit crystallization of taurine in a cleansing bar.
