Bar soap is the best soap, in my opinion. You don’t often hear me raving about body washes and all that sudsy stuff- it’s usually not good for the environment or our skin. Some bar soaps, however, have a friendlier carbon footprint and can leave our skin silky smooth, healthy, and yearning to be touched.
1. Tocca’s Grapefruit Cucumber Bar. This bad boy is chock full of vitamin E to leave skin supple and algae to leave you refreshed. Aside from the inner goodness, the packaging is too good to be true. It’s basically screaming out “hey give me as a set of 2 as a housewarming gift.”
2. Aubrey Organics Bath Bar. Under $6 for an organic bar? Yes, please! This femme bar is perfect for any gal that wants high-net-worth ingredients like organic Borage oil, and discreet enough packaging to trick her man into using it as well.
3. Claus Porto Knows How to Make a Fancy Soap. And that’s just a fact. This boxed set of nine screams out luxury with a variety of scents that seem more like flavors, and wrapping that makes them seem more like gifts than body-washers. Oh, and they’re hard-milled so they basically last forever (Ivory, be damned!).
4. LUSH’s Sultana. It is indeed the Sultan of soap. It’s pretty-smelling, rustic-looking, and damn good for your skin. And, yeah, you get the whole LUSH experience if you go to the store and buy it.
