ecostore Soap

I've been trying out different Ecostore soaps every since their attractive plain white and black boxes caught my eye, and earlier this week I picked up their lemongrass one. With my first little whiff I found it very sharply lemony and was a bit concerned that I'd come out of the shower smelling like someone had cooked me in Tom Yum soup. But I like Tom Yum so I bought it anyway. I love that I can get these bars at the supermarket and just chuck them in with the groceries. I've been eyeing them greedily, I want them all! It builds up a wonderfully silky soft lather (I think this might have to do with it being made of vegetable oil instead of tallow) and the smell is not as strong as I thought it was originally. You'll come out of the shower smelling fresh and faintly of lemon. Since the shower lotion I use afterward has a slightly sweeter smell, I actually smell like lemonade. Very pleasant as I prefer fresh, tangy smells to heavier sweet smells. The soap also doesn't dry out my skin as much as other soaps would. As an added bonus it's eco friendly!

I have tried all the Eco Store soaps, I buy the hand soap, the laundry products and the dishwash. I mainly use body washes, but this is al I have in the bathroom when I feel like a change. Doesn't dry out my skin, and has a lovely scent. Will buy again.

I love all of the Eco store soaps but especially the Lemon Grass. The scent is very nice and I find that it is perfect for in the kitchen as well as the bathroom. I have even used these on my body also and find it doesn't dry my skin out at all unlike some other cheap supermarket soaps. I love how it is in a sort of old fashioned rectangular cut and not moulded into all the regular soap cuts and the packaging makes it stand out from the others too.

I started using this Eco Store soap when I got a really bad case of dermatitis on my hands. My hands were red, sore and inflamed and i initially struggled what to use on them.

Not knowing what hand wash was causing my flare up I decided to switch to bar soap instead, and thought Eco Store would be the perfect choice.

I love the simple, no fuss and natural looking packaging, which is distinctive of all Eco Store products. Also being a New Zealand company, that cares about the environment is a plus for me. The packaging is recyclable which is great too.

The soap itself has quite a strong fragrance, but it leaves my hands smelling fresh and lovely.

I feel like this soap really cleanses my hands well, and after using this my hands feel much more moisturised, as they are prone to dryness. My hands feel silky soft after using this, which is a definite plus.

After using this for a week my hand dermatitis finally disappeared, as I think the hand wash was causing issues with my hands. Therefore, this soap is extra gentle and leaves my hands feeling lovely and hydrated.

I have repurchased ths soap many times as it really works for me.

Would definitely recommend to anyone with sensitive type skins.

I don't use bars of soap myself, but my man does and so this is more his review in my words :)

Good fragrance, not too girly. bar of soap itself stays together well, right down to the last sliver. Lathers up well and cleans well too.

A bar will last at least a month, with daily usage. Good value for a little luxury.

This works well like any other soap, but has the added benefit of being completely natural. I’ve used the coconut one which smells divine, I really like the scents of these soaps. The only downside is that it’s a bit expensive for a soap.

I have used this soap quite a few times, and I really like it! My fave is the lemongrass, it's fresh, lemony, but not over-powering. Feels nice on the skin, I have skin that's sensitive to strong soaps, but this brand doesn't bother me at all. Great value, available at most supermarkets.

Normally I would say I'm a body wash only type of person ...... so when I was gifted this in a basket of goodies it may have sad around for a while. Well it was opened last week and gosh do I regret leaving it so long. May have been converted 😜 It foams up nicely and doesn't leave my skin feeling dry like a lot of soaps do. However, I can notice the difference of it not being soapfree like a lot of the other products I would normally go for.
