ecostore Soap

Eco store are a brand I really enjoy and like. This soap was given to me and isn't something I would ever purchase for myself - just because I have a borderline pathological hatred of soap bars (I prefer liquid soap and body wash).

In saying that though, I thought I would give this a go as I do like the brand. I want to preface the review by saying I gave the 'would you use it again' as a 1 star ONLY because I strongly dislike soap bars.

As with all Eco Store products - the packaging is awesome. I love the simple design that they incorporate on all of their products, and I really love that this came encased in an environmentally friendly cardboard box.

The scent is really strong - truthfully I would have preferred it a little less scented, but the scent is pleasant and fresh and lasts a long time on your skin after using it.

The soap bar itself is like any other soap bar - it lathers nicely and makes you feel clean. Unlike other soap bars however, this doesn't have that vile 'soap' smell and nor does it dry out your skin or leave a nasty residue.

Even though I wouldn't repurchase this because I dislike soap bars - I would purchase this for friends that do like soap. I would also recommend this if you like bars of soap as this is an inexpensive soap that makes your skin feel nice, smells excellent and leaves you feeling fresh after using it.

I like this soap for a few reasons : The scent is nice and clean but not over powering. I like the fact it is kind to the planet , try to use eco products when I can and this product is a good one. It lathered well on the skin without drying out the skin. We use it all the time. Great price too.

This is a great cheap product. Because I don't have a lush or body shop near me and love to have those lovely smelling soaps I decided to give this brand a go. I must admit I wasn't expecting to much from it but I actually really like it. It has a lovely lemongrass smell to it and not too overpowering which I like. I like that it doesn't remove my natural oils from my skin and keeps my skin feeling moisturise. I think I am using a protex soap at the moment and admittedly the Eco store soap definitely blows that away. I love that fact that this brand is all about natural stuff in their products. I will definitely be buying this soap again and will try out the different scents :)

I sometimes swap out Eco Store soaps for the body wash I usually use. I find this one to be gentle for a soap, though I don't really feel it 'nourishes' my skin, but then I wouldn't really expect a soap to do that. The scent is strong so I'd avoid this one if you are sensitive to fragrances. If you like a more natural soap with a strong scent and are a fan of lemongrass this would be a great soap for you.

This is one of my favourite soaps and so unbelievably cheap. I have always leaned away from bar soaps as I find them quite messy. You do need to make sure that it isn't left sitting in a damp puddle. It's ok in the shower too, as long as it is able to drain easily. This soap is quite gentle on the skin so I find it not too drying on my body. I'd be keen to try some of the other scents also. One of the big bonuses I think is that they have thought a little about the environment. Also no plastic packaging is a huge bonus.

My mother in law always leaves these at my house after she stays and has got me onto them. Usually at our house were into the liquid soaps, but we've been trying to get through all the soaps we have before repurchasing, and I must say where pretty happy with this one. Lathers really well and the bar lasts a long time and doesn't go all goopy on the bottom. The scents are present but not overpowering and I find that it doesn't dry out my hands, which in the past has put me off bar soaps.

Nice smelling soap ,( scent doesn't last however) Very cheap considering it's a natural product. Works well and a decent sized bar.

Nice soft soap, light smell and ideal packaging for package reduction. Smell was very natural. Wouldn’t stay on your hands however

I bought this soap because I kept having allergies tot eh chemicals they put in liquid soaps and I found this to be extremely drying, to the point where I could see the skin on my arms flaking.

I love how it smells, and cleanses the skin. I do find my skin tight after using it and need to apply moisturisers. I will use it for hand wash though.
