Great base, but lather is thin

I wish this base wasn’t discontinued! It’s the perfect base for sensitive skin. My only gripe is the larger, which is always thin. But, the soap melts beautifully and always makes a nice bar. It holds the scent really well. I’ll probably switch to the clear once this runs out.

Great Sulfate Free Option

Love this base! I have several family members with sensitive skin so I made a batch of these to give them for Christmas. They love them! I have one in my shower as well and I love it too! Lathers well, holds fragrance well. Would recommend.

Made about 10 bars using the rounded edge rectangle silicone mold for purchase on here.

Awesome soap base!

I purchased this as I am adding soap to my soy candle business. I love this soap base. It is nice to be able to offer something that is sulfate free to my customers. This base takes soap colors well and it's great with essential oils. It also suds up really well and that's a good selling point. I highly recommend it.

Why only sell as a Case?

Will this soap become available in smaller quantities... a case is a bit much.?!
