I am a big fan of soap bars, all types but have a special affinity for vegetarian, vegan, and eco friendly soaps. I’m always on the lookout for cool bars and providers.
I was browsing the vegan cosmetics site Lush, and they have a solid vegan soaps section. I really digg their thorough product descriptions, including how they delineate the ingredients into Black (which = safe synthetic) and Green (which = natural and /or organic). They also specify which of their products are 100% vegan, as opposed to just vegetarian, with a round green letter V.
Besides vegan soaps; they also have a slew of vegan shampoos, vegan gels, and other items that are animal (and animal-byproduct) free.
The soaps pictured above are the karma orange spice and the bohemian lemon drop. I am going to order the Bohemain Lemon Drop, and see how it is. It looks great, and with the ingredients listed, it should lather up well. Plus i love lemony scented soaps.
Off to get me one (or two). Let me know, if you have bought this one already. Weigh in below.
I received a lemony scented soap from Lush about a year or two ago that was designed to look like a smiley face (it was circular and had carved out eyes & a smile). I’m not sure what is was called, but It smelled fantastic and it was really fun to use. It didn’t last long though; it seemed to melt rather quickly. It was worth it though!
