How To Make Your Handmade Soap Last Longer

Simple Handmade Soap Soap Care Tips from Love and Lotus Body Care

Your handmade soap is crafted with nourishing oils, skin-loving botanicals, and intention in every bar. With just a few small changes to your daily routine, you can enjoy your soap longer while honoring the beauty of natural skincare.

🌿 Use A Soap Dish That Drains

A well-draining soap dish helps your bar dry between uses and keeps it from getting soft. Choose wood, bamboo, or ceramic for a naturally elegant touch.

💧 Keep It Dry Between Uses

Let your soap breathe. Store it away from direct water and humidity—especially in between showers.

✂️ Cut Your Bar In Half

Split your bar into smaller pieces. It’s a great way to stretch your soap and keep each portion fresher.

🚿 Avoid Leaving It In The Shower

Place your soap on a ledge or shelf away from constant steam and splashes. The drier it stays, the longer it lasts.

🧖 Use A Washcloth Or Soap Saver Bag

These tools help create rich lather quickly—meaning less product is used per wash, with the same amazing clean.

A Note From Love and Lotus

Our bars are lovingly made to support your skin and your spirit. With just a little care, they’ll stay beautiful and beneficial to the last lather.  Also, each order comes with your choice of either a free soap saver bag or a soap dish.  Checkout all our skin-nourishing soaps here!
