Raine,

      If the fat is from a pig then it would not be kosher.  Jews and Muslims 
both are forbidden to eat or use anything from a pig.

  Hi all,

  Just to clarify, fat has nothing to do with a product being Kosher for 
Passover, yeast/leavening agents do.

    just so you know Ivory soap is on the OK list for soaps used at Passover so 
 it could not have fat in it.

    If you have any questions  on cosmetics as to what has pork fat in  check  
on line for products  at K A S H R U T . C O M..  There is even a number to 
call if the product you are checking is not listed.
