The reason this hack only works with Ivory soap (and it must be a fresh bar of Ivory soap) is because of how the soap is whipped, the bar has air trapped inside it. It is also because of the air trapped inside the soap that makes the bar float unlike other soaps on the market. It was really soft and light and sure enough, it did float in my bathtub which made it all the more enjoyable to use.

When you are not using them it is really important to keep them out of water on a well drained surface so that it completely dries between uses. Board the ship in your mind and sail away to a faraway island with the exotic scents of frangipani, jasmine and orange flower. We created Compact by Design to identify products that, while they may not always look very different, have a more efficient design. If you want to try a bar soap for shaving, one that I would recommend is Yardley of London Extra Moisturizing with Cocoa butter. Bath soaps based on palm oil might be exceedingly slick, so much so that it is difficult holding on to them in the shower, but they will not provide the same stable lather as a soap made from tallow or stearic acid.Translating to soap bars/pucks the mix is one puck of Williams, 2/3'rds puck of Van Der Hagen and 1 ounce (1/4 of 4oz bar) of Ivory. I would like to avoid any chemical additives and when I read the Body Wash ingredients I’m not sure what all of them are. In recent times, there’s been an odd ‘soap hack’ where by putting a bar of Ivory soap into a microwave, it expands and puffs up to look like a cloud. I am a licensed nail technician and I recommend this as a home remedy to some of my clients when applicable.

When heated in a microwave, the air wants to expand and so it pushed out thus creating the cloud like structure that’s so exciting to watch.

The usual way of using Ivory Soap for shaving - applying the brush to the soap and then to the face - is not entirely satisfactory. Curious where did you obtain that picture/information of all the old ivory soap bars with the year it was made underneath it? Considering shampoos were created to defeat the yucky hair soap gave, right there should be your answer. The Granado has been a little bit of a révélation, however, one which I've definitely enjoyed and one which has finalized my certainty about hand lathering.You can rub this solution on clothing stains, let it sit for awhile then wash as you normally would. I prefer the closeness that hand lathering provides- getting under every whisker, constant adjustments of slickness and amount, and constant feedback of where I'm already bbs and where needs attention.

It will keep dirt from getting under your finger nails, and make it even easier to clean your hands! I suspect the ones I have may be between that gap as the label (moon logo) appears slightly differen than the ones in the pic.

If you check out our homemade makeup brush cleaner post, you can substitute the dish soap with Ivory soap! You can also spray hydrogen peroxide on top of this solution once it is applied to a stain to enhance the stain fighting! Often lather can be too much or too little or dries out or whatever and I find adjustment difficult and frustrating compared to hand lathering.
