Crate 61 Organics, Handmade in Canada, Plant Based Cold Process Natural Bar Soap, With Premium Essential Oils, Pack of 6 (Dry Skin)

I have been researching natural soaps to reduce plastic waste. I decided to try these because they appear to check all my boxes without spending more on some of the other brands of similar quality. I cannot use synthetic fragrances but love natural scents. I read the one star reviews and noticed that a lot of people expect the natural fragrances to last like synthetic, but the reality is that they are not supposed to because they don't contain the harmful chemicals that give synthetic fragrances their staying power. They do provide an aromatic shower experience and they lather well and are moisturizing. I found that one bar lasted me about 2 1/2 weeks with almost daily showers. I have so far only used the bars without grit and I think the description should indicate which bars contain grit for exfoliation, however these assortments give you the chance to try different levels of exfoliation. I like supporting companies that this that are trying to help make sustainability affordable.

I am new to natural soaps this year. What got my attention first was the price. It is around the average price for a 6 pack. As some people know, cheap may be cheap and expensive may just be expensive. Quality is what's important. This is a quality soap at a good price. Everything from the soap to the packaging is organic and recyclable. Each soap is individually boxed with a corner showing the bar of soap. All of the ingredients are natural oils. This soap is good as a moisturizing soap. There may be a slight dryness as I feel no soap that I have used makes you feel like oil. This one is great at preventing that super dry skin that I had with regular soap. I have found that the regular soaps I was using was scented and made me smell like I have not had a bath in days. This soap takes care of all that. It does not have much of a fragrance, but compared to what I was smelling like, this soap has me smelling like clean air. When you open the box, the fragrance is strong and it seems like they all smell good and will make you smell that way. The one thing that will happen when you take a shower is, the fragrance will disappear, but that's ok because you will be clean and fresh in the end. Some people's bodies cannot handle perfumes and colognes. This soap is perfect for that purpose. There is one that is exfoliating (Tango Mango). There is also the one with peppermint. Beware not to let it get in your eyes. These soaps have a decent lather, not too much, but enough to know that it is soap. That's probably the reason that it does not dry you out. I think soaps with a lot of lather tends to dry you out more. This one rinses clean so that's a signal that it moisturizes more by not leaving soap scum on you as regular soaps do. Each soap lasted me almost a week. One of the things I really like is, I can use a bar until it dissolves completely. It does not break into pieces like another brand that I used that was extremely expensive for soap. I bought it the same time that I bought Crate 61. This soap gets razor/paper thin and continues to provide lather until it disappears on your skin. Excellent job!!! I am going to buy the one with men fragrances next. I expect the same cleaning and clean fresh smell. I have been turned off by soaps that leave you smelling like roses, perfume, or cologne. I just want to smell fresh and stay fresh all day. I did not have that with regular soaps. I rather spend the money to be clean than to save the money to smell dirty. Crate 61 will be a go to soap for me as I continue to test out natural soaps. You should not be disappointed with this soap if you had the issues as I did.

Pretty good soap for the shower. The scents are pretty good. Don't like or ever use the activated charcoal bar that is often included.

I have recently decided to start using more natural products both in and outside of my body. At 55, I really want to start taking better care of myself and transition to cleaner ingredients in my cooking, personal care and household items. So, as I start running out of things I am replacing them with natural items. This soap was one of my first purchases and I must say, I love it! I read reviews on quite a few different natural soap lines and decided on this one. As soon as it arrived, I opened it and decided to try the Cocoa & Vanilla Espresso bar first. It was the size of a normal bar of soap, smelled nice, not strong, but definitely had a scent. I normally use a washcloth when I soap up, but this bar of soap has ground espresso beans in it, which gives a nice exfoliating affect so I just rubbed the bar right over my body and then used a washcloth afterwards. I loved how the bar felt going over my skin. It lathers nicely and the exfoliation felt good. It also rinses of nicely, leaving no unwanted film. After drying off, my skin felt soft and refreshed. I really like this soap and can't wait to try the other 5. If they are anything like this one.......this will continue to be my go-to soap going forward.

Great fragrance, good lather, feel super clean and leave you smelling amazing

Fantastic soap. Beautiful scent

I haven’t use this soap yet but it dose look and smell very very nice.. I’ll update my review if needed.

They smell amazing, they lather up great, and with the first wash I can feel the difference on my skin. It's softer and smoother. And even though the sent isn't over powering at all, I've gotten compliments on how I smell with just the soap. Will definitely buy again.

Great product, smells really soothing. Will be my permanent soap and will continue to purchase.
