Bar Soap vs. Liquid Soap – The Shocking Truth About Your Daily Wash

Bar Soap is Back – Here’s Why You Should Ditch the Pump

In a world dominated by convenience, liquid soaps have taken over our bathroom shelves. But have you ever stopped to wonder if they are truly the best choice for your skin and the planet? Handmade bar soaps offer a superior alternative—not only for personal care but also for environmental sustainability. Here’s why you should make the switch.

1. Handmade Bar Soaps Are Gentler on Your Skin

Most commercial liquid soaps contain harsh detergents, synthetic fragrances, and preservatives that can strip your skin of its natural oils. This can lead to dryness, irritation, and even exacerbate conditions like eczema.

Handmade bar soaps, especially those made with natural oils and butters, provide deep hydration and nourishment. A study published in the Journal of Dermatological Treatment found that soaps containing plant-based oils like olive oil and shea butter help improve skin barrier function and retain moisture (Sator et al., 2003).

At The Soapany, we use only the finest natural ingredients to ensure your skin feels soft, nourished, and never stripped of its essential moisture.

2. Bar Soaps Are Free from Harmful Chemicals

Many liquid soaps contain sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and parabens, which have been linked to skin irritation and hormone disruption (Darbre et al., 2004). Handmade bar soaps, on the other hand, are typically crafted with pure, natural ingredients—no harsh additives, no unnecessary chemicals, just wholesome goodness.

3. Better for the Environment

Liquid soaps come in plastic bottles, contributing to the massive problem of plastic waste. According to a 2018 report by the United Nations, over 300 million tons of plastic waste are produced each year, and a significant portion ends up in landfills or oceans (United Nations Environment Programme, 2018).

Bar soaps, especially handmade ones, usually come in minimal or biodegradable packaging, making them a much more eco-friendly choice. Plus, they require less water and energy to produce compared to liquid soaps (Bakker et al., 2009).

4. Bar Soaps Last Longer & Save You Money

Did you know that bar soaps last up to six times longer than liquid soap? A study from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology found that bar soap usage is more efficient, with significantly lower product waste compared to liquid soap pumps (Götz et al., 2017).

Liquid soap often gets over-pumped or wasted due to its watery consistency, while a solid bar allows for controlled usage, ensuring you get the most out of every lather.

5. Handmade Soaps Contain Glycerin – A Skin Superhero

Glycerin is a natural humectant, meaning it attracts moisture to your skin. Unfortunately, many commercial liquid soaps have their glycerin removed to be used in other cosmetic products.

Handmade bar soaps retain their natural glycerin, making them deeply moisturizing and perfect for sensitive or dry skin (Morris et al., 2010).

6. The Experience is Simply Better

There’s something truly special about using a handcrafted, artisanal bar of soap. The rich lather, the natural scents, the luxurious feel—it turns a simple shower into a self-care ritual.

At The Soapany, every bar of soap is made with love, care, and high-quality ingredients, ensuring you get the best possible experience while caring for your skin.

Final Verdict: Bar Soap Wins!

If you’re looking for a gentler, more eco-friendly, cost-effective, and luxurious cleansing experience, handmade bar soap is the clear winner.

Day 6- Hasbro Cartoons

"I was something else before."

Destruction of your neighbor's cars is forbidden, but the dealership is not

Here is your mission.

FOR PARENTS OF YOUNG KIDS IN THE US!

Someone over on bluesky posted this and I figured I'd better repost it here. It's the pre-RFK 2025 vaccination schedule for babies and young children, ya know, just in case it mysteriously disappears. Save this and give it to your child's pediatrician; tell them this is the schedule you want your child on.

Happy dannypocalypse guys! I don't know how to edit, and I'm really just a one trick pony, so here you go :)

And a bonus Danno on a Stick!

Dp x dc: batshit crazy driver au.

Bruce hired a new personal driver for the Wayne's. He was a nice enough guy. His grades weren't great, but he was a great driver and very patient. Like, really patient. Like, he is so unbothered by traffic, stupid drivers, and villain attacks, its kinda scary. But all the background checks came back clean. Minus his mad scientists parents, of course.

Daniel (Danny) Fenton. He could relate to any of the Wayne kids and hold an intelligent conversation with Bruce. Bruce feels that he doesn't need to be all Brucie Wayne around the young man. He doesn't know about their nightly activities yet, though. They're not quite sure if he even needs to know.

The first sign there was something more to Danny happened when Tim was sitting in the passenger seat. Tim was struggling with a math problem. It was driving him nuts. It only took a quick glance for Daniel to solve it, though, "it's thirty-six"

"What?"

"The answer is Thirty-six. You forgot to carry the three."

"Huh..."

He was right, Tim made a simple mistake, sure. But that was advanced college level math. Danny was a straight c student and never went to college. It only took him a momentary glance to solve it. Tim, though suspicious, chalked it up to a simple case of gifted kid syndrome. He related to it and began to consult with Danny on some of his math problems. Danny was more than happy to help, for a price, of course.

Then, there was a villain attack. The villain's goons ran rampant through the city, terrorizing anyone unfortunate enough to be outside at the time. But not Danny, they'll tried, oooh they tried. But those goons swiftly found themselves zip tied, in the trunk of a car, and on their way to jail. All while Danny blasted some music by a small artist named 'Ember'.

Alright. He is in Gotham, and his mother was a black belt, so maybe he was just well trained. Its good to know how to deffend yourself.

Then, Damien was kidnapped. It was so fast they barely saw, but a white van sped by and grabbed Damien as he made his way tawords the car. Initially, Damien expected the chauffeur to panic and call the police. But when shouting and cursing were heard from the front seat, and the men in the back slipped the van door open to check behind them, it was revealed Danny had followed them and he had a gun.

What could only be described as an action movie chase scene ensued. Every corner they swerved, every shortcut they took, Danny was right behind them. Driving like a bat out of hell, he shouted and fired at the wheels of the van. Knocking one out, the van swerved and was forced to come to a stop.

A kidnapper grabbed Damien by the hair and held a gun to his head, but before the threat could even leave his mouth a bullet flew through his hand. He dropped Damien and fell to the ground screaming, clutching his hand.

The kidnapper in the van already took off running but was swiftly stopped by Redhood arriving just in time to see Danny helping Damien up and checking him over, profusely apologizing for "letting this happen."

When asked why he did all of it, his simply answered, "I don't think I would get paid if I let Mr. Wayne's kid die! I can't let a kid die in general!"

Bruce, of course, gave the young man a bonus and a few days off for the stunt. Accompanied wlth a few stern words about safety. What was truly remarkable was that there was not a single scratch on the car. Untouched, meaning he never hit anything during the whole ordeal. "I just learned what not to do from my dad!" He joked, but Bruce felt that, despite the clear joking tone, there was some truth to the statement.

The family is suspicious, very suspicious. The man they previously viewed as their simple and humble driver turned out to be a monster of a fighter, and they have no idea how or why.

A/N: Feel free to add onto this in any way you would like :3

For fucking real, I HAD PANIC ATTACKS BECAUSE OF THIS. Though to be fair I was also in a place where everyone expected you to be immediately better at everything than the average kid at that age, no thank you I already had ✨T R A U M A✨ from feeling responsible for the actions of my younger sibling. All caused by the fact that my dad near constantly guilt-tripped me making me feel useless if I didn't want to help(I still have an issue with needing to not be a burden every time I visit a friend or participate in anything).

I apologize for ranting at the internet.
