On My Soapbox About A...Soap Bag

I love this product. Small, simple, and goes a long way. Since I have converted to bar soap, I have had (and anticipate having) a lot more soap scraps and ends. The conservationist and thrifty side of myself always felt weird about throwing away the end of a bar of soap when it was seemingly too small to use “normally.” So I went through some phases in my life when I would save them, but to what end? They never stuck together well and I fantasized about turning them into liquid soap when I had enough but that never happened and I always ended up throwing them away anyway. But…enter the soap bag! I love it! I put my soap ends in it and then I use that bag of soap + my soap box when I travel. This combo makes me so happy—I am not wasting the soap scraps and I also know that I don’t have to use any small, single-use travel body wash, etc.

Another thing I love is that the bag is the scrubber. It exfoliates really nicely. You do have to allow the soap ample time in water to slightly soften up a bit before it lathers though. And FYI, it is not intended only for soap scraps. You can use it for a whole bar of soap as well. I just happen to prefer to use it for the ends. I did read in a product review about someone’s concern about mold. They then stated that they could likely keep an eye out for mold and then just bleach the product if they noticed any. I do take precautions such as letting it hang to dry out between uses, which is something to be even more mindful of when traveling, but I suppose it IS a good idea to monitor the situation for mold. I look forward to being able to use this more whenever we can travel again, but in the meantime, it is collecting my soap ends, which I will use whenever the bag gets full-ish.
