... Because I found the bar soap of my dreams!!!
Y'know how sometimes shit calls to you?
Shit calls to me.
This soap has been calling to me.
Last year, I went on a crusade to find cruelty free soap that didn't leave my skin waxy and dry. I let out a cry on this blog, hoping to find my inbox inundated with free soap samples. Yeah, that didn't happen.
And like the lazy loser I am...
... (i.e. smoking the occasional cigarette), I gave up pretty fast...
... But this soap kept calling to me.
All last year, mine eyes ran up and down the soap aisles of my local market. They always landed on Sappo Hill's pretty cardboard boxes and perfectly cut spheres of bright ivory, purple and green. The soaps felt cold and soft in my hand. They smelled like real stuffs! Real oats! Real aloe! Real lavender.
All last summer as an apothecarian, I faced and organized the soaps. When Sappo Hill came in, I loved to tear off the top of the box and run my fingers down the stack. They fit so neatly and compactly on the shelf. The packaging made my job easier!
So why didn't I purchase it sooner?
Because Sappo Hill soaps cost only around a buck-fitty. How the hell, I wondered, could good soap be so cheap? It will be like the rest, I thought. It will leave my skin scaly and waxy and gross.
How wrong I was.
This soap is the ONLY bar soap I've ever used that does not leave my skin feeling sticky or dry. It makes NO sense to me - because it doesn't have any different ingredients from any other soap I've tried. It is VEGAN and CRUELTY FREE. It comes with no packaging, so it's green. AND for what you get, IT'S FUCKING CHEAP!
Thanks for washing the guilt outta my shower, Sappo Hill!

Where do you buy this?!!?!?
OMG, you're psycho about your soaps. :)
A friend gave me African Black Soap and I couldn't believe how I had a lapse in common sense and used it because I have contact dermatitis and have no idea what's causing it.
At first the itchy bumps were confined to my hands and, now, they've migrated. Therefore, no more soap experiments for me...
Two things:
1. Yes, these soaps rock! I worked at a health food store and also loved putting these on our shelves. It totally doesn't make sense how cheap they are, but they don't last super long, so maybe that's why. But I think they last $1.50 worth, for sure!
2. Where did you get that shower curtain.....oh my gosh, it's the best!!
