Sodium Hydroxide (caustic soda or lye) is caustic and as a result it will destroy or irreversibly damage another substance with which it comes into contact including skin!. It is reactive to aluminum so be careful if you are using it to make soap. If you will be working with sodium hydroxide always keep a bottle of vinegar near by since water will not stop the corrosive effects only an acid.
