Exfoliating - The Truth About Grit

The best soap for men is one that cleans effectively without drying or irritating the skin such as our full range of Bare Bar natural soaps. Our natural soap bars are made with plant oils such as coconut oil, olive oil and cocoa butter to help remove dirt and excess oil while keeping the skin balanced and hydrated. Many men prefer our natural soap bars because we never use harsh detergents and synthetic ingredients commonly found in conventional soaps.

Bare Bar natural soap bars are gentler on the skin because we make them using plant-based oils and natural ingredients. Unlike many commercial soaps that contain synthetic detergents, Bare Bar natural soap retains glycerin, a natural moisturiser that helps keep skin soft and hydrated. This makes Bare Bar natural soap bars a the best option for people with sensitive or dry skin.

Bar soap and body wash both cleanse the skin true, but they are made completely differently. Our natural soap bars are created through a process called saponification, using oils and lye to produce soap and natural glycerin. Body wash often contains synthetic detergents, preservatives and plastic packaging. Many people choose our soap bars because they are simpler, longer lasting and more environmentally friendly, as well as being excellent for your skin.

Bare Bar natural soap bars are environmentally friendly because we only use sustainably sourced plastic-free packaging. Body wash is usually sold in plastic bottles, which rarely get properly recycled. Soap bars also last longer and often require less water during manufacturing.

The lifespan of Bare Bar soap bars depends on how often they are used and how they are stored during use. On average, our customers say they get between 3-6 weeks use showering every day, again this can vary by using accessories such as our Soap Deck & Bare Grip, which can both extend the life of your Bare Bars by keeping them dry inbetween use.

Bare Bar natural soap bars are gentle enough to be used on both the face and body. Because they are made with nourishing oils and fewer harsh ingredients, they can cleanse effectively without stripping the skin. However, people with very sensitive facial skin may prefer our unscented natural soap bar Raw Oats & Maple. It is unscented and therefore extremely gentle on sensitive skin, made with Oat Milk, it is extremely nourishing for facial skin.

Soap bars are hygienic and safe to use when stored properly. Studies have shown that bacteria does not transfer from soap bars during normal washing. Keeping the soap on a draining soap dish allows it to dry between uses, which helps maintain cleanliness.
