How long does a 100g bar typically last?

Is this soap safe for sensitive skin?

Yes, the soap is made with natural ingredients, is vegan, palm oil-free, and free from parabens and SLS, making it generally gentle on the skin.

Can I use this in my automatic dishwasher?

What are the main ingredients?

The main ingredients are Cocos Nucifera Oil (coconut oil) and Soybean Oil (hydrogenated), with Citric Acid and Lemongrass essential oil (Cymbopogon Flexuosus Leaf Oil).

Does it have a strong scent?

Troubleshooting

Soap bar dissolving too quickly

Ensure the soap bar is kept dry between uses. Use a well-drained soap dish and allow it to air dry completely.

Not enough lather

Use warm water and a suitable scrubbing tool like a brush or sponge. Ensure the bar is not already coated in soap residue from previous use; rinse the bar lightly before lathering.

Grease not fully removed

For stubborn grease, apply the lather directly to the greasy area and allow it to sit for a minute before scrubbing. A more abrasive scourer might also help.

Unpleasant smell developing on the bar

This can happen if the bar is left wet. Ensure it dries thoroughly between uses. If the smell persists, the bar may need to be replaced.
