Do you like handmade soaps?
 

I'm not a fan of the scent, but I love the pretty "designs" in handmade soaps. My favorite kind is the Primal Elements.

Okay, this is weird but I love the soap you get at places like Whole Foods -- either the kind that comes in a big block and you have to cut off a piece or the really naturey stuff with like poppy seeds in it. If it smells minty, that's a bonus.

I love the french-milled soaps, if they smell alright, but lately, I've tried some soap I got on ebay, and they are both beautiful and nice to use. They're from "Good Things From Louisiana", and she not only makes them in all sorts of shapes, but when I received them, she had a freezer pack with them, to keep them cold!

(You'd think I'm making a commission on this, wouldn't you? :rolleyes: )

Because of my ridiculous skin allergies I can only use Milk Soap. I buy it whenever I can find it. Trader Joe's used to sell some great Milk Soap but no longer does. I've been buying a lot of it at Whole Foods. My former secretary makes the MOST AMAZING soap ever. Her website is www.badanbody.com. I highly recommend her products.

I guess this is just further proof of what a freakazoid I am, but when I saw the title of this thread, I immediately thought of Fight Club.

I love handmade soaps of all kinds. Preferably the ones with little designs in them that smell like fruit. I don't like the hippie-smelling ones.

I like the Gardenia and chocolate ones :) they smell excellent!!! I have one that says 2004 in it AND smells like strawberries and champagne. Plus they are so cute to look at.

Yesterday, I saw handmade soap with sorority letters and symbols in it. If you're into that, check out your bookstore!

I never knew you could make handmade soaps until I saw the supplies for them at Hobby Lobby. I was thinking about trying it out.

I use gojo all over my body.

The administration of Yale University recently voted to supply lavatories in its student dormitories with soap. The change didn’t come easily, but then Yale’s mascot is a bulldog: Students have been lobbying for the innovation for a decade, candidates for President of the Student Council have run election campaigns on the promise of winning soap, and the Student Council has a standing “Soap Committee.” In 1997 one of the university’s deans said: “The real reason there are no soap dispensers is that there have never been soap dispensers.” But John Pepper, who was a member of Yale’s governing corporation at the time, said the university “couldn’t figure out how to make it work economically.” (Yale has an endowment of $15 billion.) Asked about the recent decision, Pepper, who was once chairman of Procter & Gamble, the maker of Ivory, Olay, and Zest soaps, told a reporter: “I think it’s great that people have soap.”

(Our question is this: If Yale had supplied its students with soap three decades ago when George Bush and John Kerry were classmates there, would their Presidential campaign have been any cleaner? Answer: Cleaner, maybe, but slipperier, too.)
