Ivory Original 10-Count: Bath Size Bars (4 Oz), 38.8 Ounce

Product Information

Gamble, who was a chemist, had discovered how to make the soap float and noted the result in his writings. As for the scent, upon my first opening of the packaging, it definitely had a strong soap smell with perhaps a hint of something citrus-y in the background. It was really soft and light and sure enough, it did float in my bathtub which made it all the more enjoyable to use. And ultimately the lather is thick enough that my razor isn't as close to my skin as I'd like, the blade isn't going under each whisker but is floating above them just a little.

I've been lathering with my trusty Shave Mac badger for 20 years, and it's never made a lather comparable to handmade lather. Ivory soap was very popular in the 1950’s for many reasons; women used it as part of their daily facial cleansing routine due to it’s gentle softness and it’s deemed purity. Now that we know more about what makes Ivory soap so unique and interesting, here are some great ways you can start using it today!

Any time you see an ingredient list with the And/Or listed, it means that production will be made from whatever the manufacturer has on hand at the time. I would like to avoid any chemical additives and when I read the Body Wash ingredients I’m not sure what all of them are. The Granado has been a little bit of a révélation, however, one which I've definitely enjoyed and one which has finalized my certainty about hand lathering. I was hoping I'd get longer blade life and closer shaves but I was sorely disappointed on both counts.
