With our large family, we sure have been through a lot of soap over the years. I can’t begin to count the number of times I have said I just put a new bar in there, how can you be out already?
I don’t remember where I heard about this tip, but it was several years ago.
When you bring your soap home from the store, unwrap it, and store it unwrapped until your ready to use it.
The water in the soap evaporates, and the bar gets harder. The harder soap lasts much longer than a softer one.
I would suggest leaving it unwrapped for at least 2-3 weeks before using it..
You will definitely see a difference in how long the bar of soap lasts!
