Crate 61 Organics Soap, Pack of 6

Very good

I love handmade soaps, my husband bought these for me for Christmas, and I have been hooked. This is a great value for your money. It smells amazing and is gentle and moisturizing. Definitely recommend!

Looks and smells wonderful, thanks for making these lovely soaps!

I switched from traditional bar soaps and washes to avoid drying out my skin and these are great for that, although they are lacking in strength of fragrance. In the box they smell great but I barely notice a fragrance after a shower. Pros: nice lather, non-drying, gentle, feel clean, relatively long lasting with one bar lasting at least 6 weeks with a daily shower. Cons: weak fragrance

It's soft, it's silky, it has texture so it's getting into the deep places, and it lathers extremely well. All 6 bars we got have a pleasant but not overwhelming smell, we even got one with seaweed and it smells great too. My hands are way softer after using this soap for a couple weeks now too. The only bad thing I could even think to say would be that the bars don't seem to last very long compared to other brands, but I have figured that is because they are designed to lather well which just uses more soap. Cost wasn't bad, but consider buying direct, you'll save some money especially if you catch the free shipping. So whether you're Canadian trying to shop Canadian, or you just want a better quality soap, or you have a smelly friend who needs a hint... this stuff is for you. Packaging is 100% sustainable, not even 1 little scrap will end up in the trash, 100% recyclable packaging, not even a small plastic stickers to seal boxes, no plastic at all.

My wife has extremely sensitive skin. Countless times after showering if I give her a hug she breaks out in a rash from the harsh chemical ingredients in soap. So I've been using the only soap that she can tolerate. But I grew tired of it and wanted to give a smaller brand a try (since the big corporate brands tend to be loaded with chemical ingredients). So? Non-irritating I've only tried the Mint Soap so far, but my wife has had no reactions. That leads me to believe that any future reactions will be because of natural ingredients, not any chemical soap ingredients (an allergy to essential oils etc.). But yeah, so far so good. There is a "cool" tingling feeling I get from this soap, but that's the same cooling effect I get from other essential oils such as peppermint oil or tea tree oil. It's stimulating, but not irritating. Smell People complaining that the smell isn't strong enough are likely used to chemical ingredients that have a strong odor (but will also probably give you cancer). This is soap, not perfume. Smell should not be overpowering. I get the feeling that amount of scent is just right for an effective natural ingredient. Any more, and I think anything natural would be corrosive. That is my opinion. Cleaning Power At first I thought this soap wasn't that great at cleaning because there was pretty much no sudsing at all and the residue was "sticky". Then on the second shower I realized that it took a little time for the water to break down the chemical bonds (much like melting chocolate in your mouth) and once they started to loosen, this soap suds up real nice and cleans great. The sticky residue also stopped. If you don't like this soap at first, give it a few showers to break in. Durability Unlike liquid soap, hard soap tends to last long unless there's nothing in it to hold it together. After three showers this soap is actually holding up BETTER than big brands. There's no soft soap muck at the bottom of the soap. It DOES have a tendency to stick to the tub like the jaws of death when it dries, so you might want a soap dish or a wire rack for this soap. Price For a pack of sick this is a nice middle ground between insanely expensive artisanal soaps and the drug store chemical-laden junk. I am hopeful none of the other soaps included in the package irritate my wife's skin, but if they are as great as my first bar I'll buy another case for sure. I wish I could get just one variety in a box, but I'm really excited to try the other varieties. Believe the hype. This soap is for real.
