Ok – I know that I sell body wash – and yes, that is mainly what I use because I love it and it leaves your skin more moisturized than bar soap, but once in awhile I like to use bar soap just to change things up. I like the simplicity of it, it almost feels “retro” now!

My favorite? Hands down it’s Dr. Bronners Peppermint Organic Bar Soap. It is creamy and rich and smells amazing. I love peppermint in the shower – it wakes you up (which is why I love Garden Girl’s Alive body wash too!)

On Dr. Bronner’s website, they describe the soap as follows: “The peppermint essential oil tingles the body and clears the mind. Because therapeutically peppermint oil is a mild stimulant it increases vitality and clarity. All oils and essential oils are certified organic to the National Organic Standards Program. Wrapped in 10% hemp-flax / 90% post-consumer recycled paper from Living Tree Paper Co.”

My biggest pet peeve? It doesn’t last as long as I’d like. If you decide to try it, definitely buy it at Trader Joe’s if you are near one. It’s around $2.75ish vs. the $4.19 on the Dr Bronner’s website!
