BLOCK SOLID SOAP VS. LIQUID SOAP: WHICH IS BETTER AND WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?

Are you looking for an alternative to liquid soap and are you thinking of a bar of soap? Or are you curious about the difference between a solid bar of soap and liquid soap? In this blog we discuss the pros and cons of both options.

A PREJUDICE DEbunked: BLOCK SOAP IS AS HYGIENIC AS LIQUID SOAP

A common prejudice about plastic-free bar soap is that it is less hygienic than liquid soap. However, none of this is true. If you let a solid bar of soap dry between showers, it is just as hygienic as liquid soap. A bar of soap cannot transfer bacteria from person to person. This is due to the pH value, as the block is self-preserving, which prevents bacteria from multiplying. You can use one of our soap dishes to dry the bar. In terms of hygiene, there is no difference between a bar of soap or a liquid soap. It is important to let the solid bar of soap dry thoroughly! This way the soap will last the longest!

BLOCK SOAP IS A CHEAPER ALTERNATIVE

Although you might not immediately say it at first, it is actually true: a solid bar of soap is indeed cheaper. A block of solid soap is equivalent to no less than two to three (!) bottles of liquid soap in a bottle. Another advantage of a solid soap is that you do not waste unnecessary product. Bottles with liquid shower gels are designed in such a way that almost always too much shower gel comes out. A solid bar of soap therefore lasts longer than a liquid soap, making it relatively cheaper.

BLOCK SOAP IS MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

The use of plastic for a bar of soap has become completely unnecessary. While you need a large amount of plastic for a bottle, this is not the case with a bar of soap. In addition, liquid soap is made from chemical ingredients. Liquid soap also consists largely of water, which is why liquid soap seems cheaper, but in reality it is not. Chemicals are used to add water to the soap. Mold can easily grow here. Not so nice for the skin!

FINAL CONCLUSION LIQUID SOAP VS. SOLID BLOCK OF SOAP

After comparing liquid soap and bar soap, we can conclude that there are some important differences between these two types of soap. Although liquid soap is convenient to use, it is often less durable than a bar of soap. Plus, bar soap is often made from natural ingredients and lasts longer than liquid soap, making it a good choice for the environment and your wallet.
