Anyone who keeps tabs on my infrequent Twittering already knows that I have a new favourite soap. For the rest of you, I present…
Get Real Mint Soap! Man, this stuff is great. A few weeks ago, I picked up a few bars of Method Bloq Mint soap, and was frankly a little disappointed. I was looking for a clear-your-sinuses mint experience, and it just did not deliver. A decent soap - lathered up quite nicely, but it is not as intense as I was hoping for.
Last week I finally got around to replacing the missing cap on my Sigg bottle, and the place I ordered from also had this soap on sale. So I thought I’d give it a shot. So glad I did.
First of all, it’s a big block of soap. It’s about 1-1/2 X the size of your standard Irish Spring or whatever you use. It’s dense - I felt a little frivoulous about shelling out $3 for a bar of soap, but I think one will last me a while. Also, if you’re confronted in the shower, you could probably clonk your attacker over the head with this and do some damage. Finally, it’s gritty. It’s not like a pumice stone or anything, but it’s got a slightly rough surface - good for scrubbing. Best of all, it’s super minty.
The manufacturer has a few other products I might be interested in - the licorice candy sounds tasty.

Hmm…matching breath and body odor. I like it.

An update… that first bar of soap has probably got 2 or 3 showers left in it. I’ve taken at least one shower a day (18 total?) in the two weeks I’ve been using it.
