Most liquid soaps come packaged in plastic bottles, while our bar soaps are wrapped simply and thoughtfully, creating far less waste. While there are exceptions, studies have shown that liquid soaps can have a significantly higher carbon footprint than traditional bar soaps.

Refill options can help reduce packaging waste, but it's still important to consider the resources required to produce, ship, and package those refills.

Handcrafted bar soaps are often made with simple, nourishing ingredients and require less processing than many mass-produced liquid soaps, which may contain additional preservatives and synthetic additives.

There’s no one-size-fits-all solution, but when it comes to reducing waste, minimizing packaging, and choosing a more sustainable option, bar soap is hard to beat. It's a small switch that can make a meaningful difference for both your skin and the planet.
