A great way to extend the life of your handmade soap is by giving it a little extra care. The key is to keep your soap dry between uses.
The lifespan of a single bar can vary, but with proper storage on a well-draining soap dish, it can last from two to four weeks, or even longer. This simple practice prevents the soap from sitting in water, which can cause it to soften and dissolve more quickly.
By keeping your soap out of direct water flow when not in use, you'll not only make it last, but you'll also ensure that each wash feels like a luxurious, hydrating ritual for your skin.
