The '2-in-1' Laundry & Dish Bar Story

This amazing bar is made with salt water from the Atlantic Ocean. Why? Salt water results in a longer-lasting bar that withstands friction on different fabrics better & we have salt water in abundance! Plus, it's tough on stains & gentle on hands, removing tough stains & odours like mud, blood, fruit juice, grease, makeup, sweat & more, leaving laundry & dishes squeaky clean!

Vegetable shortening (soybean oil, palm oil [sustainably harvested]), coconut oil, olive oil, water, sodium hydroxide (lye), salt. 

Pack Options

• Full bar: appx 100 grams* (cured)
• Mini bar: appx 20 grams* (cured)
• Bulk brick: appx 2 kilograms (made fresh to order)

During the curing process water evaporates & weight decreases, though shape remains the same. Fully cured bars are harder, so last longer, provided they are allowed to dry between uses.

• Bulk brick - Recyclable, zero-waste, plastic-free paper wrap

How to Process Bulk Bricks

Cut to Desired Sizes & Shapes

• Using a non-serrated cutting edge (knife, pastry scraper, etc.) carefully cut the bricks into whatever size or shape you wish. 
• You can mold chunks of the brick like playdough, if you wish, to make a ball-shaped bar, too 😊
• Alternatively, you can soften some of the brick and roll it out, then cut into shapes with cookie cutters. Note: you may find it easier to roll out between sheets of parchment or silicone.

Cure

• Place the bars on trays lined with a mesh or rack (for airflow), ensuring you leave a bit of air space on all sides.
• Place the trays in a warm, dry place away from direct sunlight & heat.
• Allow 3-4 weeks minimum for the bars to dehydrate, which will make them harder so they last longer.
