I love soap. I mean I just love it. This wonderfully scented, thick bars of cleanliness. Especially, unfortunately the luxuriously scented bars from France, Portugal, etc. These can be expensive. Sometimes I do find a deal of sorts at stores such as Ross, Marshalls, Tuesday Morning, and the like.

I actually don’t buy soap a lot. People have figured out this is the perfect gift form. I will know and appreciate that one bar of soap.  People have given me weird gifts for giving them those big Savon de Marseille bars of soap for gifts (the 1KG is a good size). But later they gush and thank me.

I lucked was blessed a little over a year ago to purchase a load of skin friendly soap from Israel. This soap is what we use to bathe with. I also have sensitive skin.

These are all soap bars if I haven’t said so yet.

Mostly I use my bars in the guest bathroom. So hey if you’re ever a guest in my home you get the best of my soap collection!

Recently I found the urge (even with my massive collection) to pick up a few luxury bars of soap for the guest bathroom.

I happened upon Claus Porto. Like I said I usually buy my expensive soap at a discount and this brand doesn’t go on discount. I purchased some tiny pieces to try out on guests.

Yes they are marvelous and now I cry tears of regret because I will not pay for the full price larger bars…I think.

But in all that I found a great idea for what to use those bars I just can’t bear to put out (my husband blessed me with some Roget and Gallet a few years ago and I just can’t use them.)
