The coppery mess is because. In order to keep natural ingredient claims and high definition in the logo we used a water based formula. This is transparent and in order to match the copper color a lot of pearl was added. It is all natural not a dye so will not stain anything.
I know a lot of you are keeping these, but remember that soap has a natural shelf life of between 1-3 years with this formula being at the low end. After this time it will shrink as it loses moisture, then crack.
There are ways you can prevent this but more hassle than it is worth ( unless you have all the equipment in work)
Glad most people seem to like them.
Hey! these should come with a lifetime warranty and manufacturer should replace damaged onesflattop2001 wrote:

Personally I don't want to use the soap, not just cause for saving it for collecting purposes, I just hate bar soaps. Makers always claim that they are luxurious, non drying, etc. That is NEVER the case, sorry folks. Liquid for life!
I'll shoot you a pm but I have NEVER found a small mom and pop soap that is as luscious as a liquid soap. I can see using a bar soap for hand washing but never for the body, it dries my skin way too much. I'm a delicate flower I guess.harvestgirl wrote:ms8shaw wrote:I have a food saver!
