Time for a clean start..

A question? How do I choose between pumpy and bar soap ?

I don't like pumpy soap as it makes my hands sore . We use unscented bar soap.

Ahha! Well spotted.. I can't edit the poll. Maybe a Mod could split that question, if they're up yet?

Pears for me, makes adding old sliver to new bar as easy as possible, so no waste.

Where's the option for a handful of sand and a dab of washing up liquid? The common man's swarfega.

That'd be 'Other', I reckon

I can remember the old advert in a Pears encyclopedia of a scruffy old man writing a letter endorsing their product .
" Since having used your product I have used no other !".

Lush soaps - it's important to me that it's not plastic wrapped & is palm oil free.
I did used to like Pears but they put it in little plastic bags now.
Also at the minute have some milk-based soaps which were a gift.

You can buy large blocks of soap which you then chop up and melt down before adding whatever you fancy.Put into moulds and add a fancy wrapper and the profit margin is whatever you think you can get away with. Been there done that.
Got the base soap from some bunch in Cornwall who had difficulty with proper invoicing so we fell out and I abandoned that enterprise.

Controversial even. I can see some folk getting into a lather about it.
