This is perfect in my bathroom. So moisturising to my normally dry skin.
My favourite soap, so good for my skin especially when i have a flare up of Eczema, never irritates, no nasty ingredients & this size last ages, i cut it into 3 more manageable bars.
So many uses but mainly grate it myself (cheaper that way than buying it already grated) and make into laundry detergent! But the soap also cleaned my jewellery, bathtub….i previously tried the olive coloured Marseille soap, but for me I prefer this one and will stick with it….and 100% great customer service always gets back to you so quickly with great info! Couldn’t recommend this company and products highly enough and will repurchase
I have used this for laundry, washing dishes, cleaning just about everything, removing stains.....the list goes on!! It really does clean everything and I must not forget, it's a brilliant shampoo!! In addition to that it doesn't come in a plastic bottle.I highly recommend it.Thank you.
I brought for friends and family to try , obviously they all have different skin types and they all are happy with them
Cleans anything and everything, without chemicals in the most amazing way. Friend reports UGG boots now look like new! She was contemplating getting a new pair. But no need.
These flakes are amazing, multipurpose but bought mostly for making laundry detergent that’s non toxic, absolutely love using it, so simple, works really well.
I have used soap all my life makes you feel clean
