"Have you ever visited the home of a friend or relative and witnessed a household habit that left you a little speechless? I'm talking about a smack-the-forehead moment that has you taking that idea home and wondering why you've never done it before. This happened to me over the holidays and it's definitely made me a convert. The thing I noticed? A bar of soap for washing dishes."
"For starters, bar soap is earth-friendly. No plastic containers! And just think about how much liquid soap you use (too much!). With bar soap, you don't need a lot to make a wonderfully rich lather (think: Dudley Moore in Arthur!). Apparently, coconut and castor oils, the oils typically used in kitchen bar soap, have way better chemical stability than oils used in liquid soap. This means bar soap retains its sudsy nature longer, easily cutting through grease without having to keep going back for more."
Bar soap for washing dishes offers environmental benefits by eliminating plastic containers and requiring less product to create a rich lather. Coconut and castor oils used in kitchen bar soaps have superior chemical stability compared with oils in liquid soap, so bars retain suds longer and cut through grease more efficiently. Many bar formulas include skin-friendly ingredients such as coconut oil, grapeseed oil, kale powder, lime oil, purified water, sea salt, and sugar. Bar soaps also offer varied, appealing scents from traditional lemon to blends like nutmeg, coffee, almond, and cinnamon. Some accessories, such as a firm-bristled scrubby brush, are recommended.
