Dishes? Laundry? Dry Hands? Baby's Bath Time? This is a multi-tasking, household soap that will handle whatever you throw at it. Keep a cube next to your sink to wash your dishes [simply wet a dish-brush & rub in a circular motion on top of the block to load it,] or grate it to use in the laundry! An amazing hand soap, it is equally fabulous as a full body cleanser in the shower. Our soap is 100% natural & chemical free. Zero waste. Zero fuss. Luxurious & effective.
What's the difference between the PINK & the GREEN? The pink is colored with finely milled pink French clay to boost cleansing efficacy. The green has zeolite clay added, which is a bit grittier, giving a slight 'scrubbiness' to the green cubes.
