Crate 61, Handmade in Canada, Plant Based Cold Process Natural Bar Soap, With Premium Essential Oils, Dry Skin, Pack of 6 (Most Popular)

I am new to natural soaps this year. What got my attention first was the price. It is around the average price for a 6 pack. As some people know, cheap may be cheap and expensive may just be expensive. Quality is what's important. This is a quality soap at a good price. Everything from the soap to the packaging is organic and recyclable. Each soap is individually boxed with a corner showing the bar of soap. All of the ingredients are natural oils. This soap is good as a moisturizing soap. There may be a slight dryness as I feel no soap that I have used makes you feel like oil. This one is great at preventing that super dry skin that I had with regular soap. I have found that the regular soaps I was using was scented and made me smell like I have not had a bath in days. This soap takes care of all that. It does not have much of a fragrance, but compared to what I was smelling like, this soap has me smelling like clean air. When you open the box, the fragrance is strong and it seems like they all smell good and will make you smell that way. The one thing that will happen when you take a shower is, the fragrance will disappear, but that's ok because you will be clean and fresh in the end. Some people's bodies cannot handle perfumes and colognes. This soap is perfect for that purpose. There is one that is exfoliating (Tango Mango). There is also the one with peppermint. Beware not to let it get in your eyes. These soaps have a decent lather, not too much, but enough to know that it is soap. That's probably the reason that it does not dry you out. I think soaps with a lot of lather tends to dry you out more. This one rinses clean so that's a signal that it moisturizes more by not leaving soap scum on you as regular soaps do. Each soap lasted me almost a week. One of the things I really like is, I can use a bar until it dissolves completely. It does not break into pieces like another brand that I used that was extremely expensive for soap. I bought it the same time that I bought Crate 61. This soap gets razor/paper thin and continues to provide lather until it disappears on your skin. Excellent job!!! I am going to buy the one with men fragrances next. I expect the same cleaning and clean fresh smell. I have been turned off by soaps that leave you smelling like roses, perfume, or cologne. I just want to smell fresh and stay fresh all day. I did not have that with regular soaps. I rather spend the money to be clean than to save the money to smell dirty. Crate 61 will be a go to soap for me as I continue to test out natural soaps. You should not be disappointed with this soap if you had the issues as I did.

I have been researching natural soaps to reduce plastic waste. I decided to try these because they appear to check all my boxes without spending more on some of the other brands of similar quality. I cannot use synthetic fragrances but love natural scents. I read the one star reviews and noticed that a lot of people expect the natural fragrances to last like synthetic, but the reality is that they are not supposed to because they don't contain the harmful chemicals that give synthetic fragrances their staying power. They do provide an aromatic shower experience and they lather well and are moisturizing. I found that one bar lasted me about 2 1/2 weeks with almost daily showers. I have so far only used the bars without grit and I think the description should indicate which bars contain grit for exfoliation, however these assortments give you the chance to try different levels of exfoliation. I like supporting companies that this that are trying to help make sustainability affordable.

Got these cause they seemed pretty good from reviews and the scents they offered. Also like to support a Canadian business, as my neighbor. They have worked pretty well, on my second box already. I wanted to get away from those liquid processed soaps and go with something that seems more natural. Some of the bars scents arent the great but thats mainly cause of preference. One problem I do have is that there are some small hard bits in each soap. Not sure what they are they are like chia seeds or something. Maybe its from whatever plants they use for making these bars. They might be good for helping exfoliate or scrub your skin. I just feel they are to rough so after using a bar for a while ill use my finger nails to scrape off those little things every now and again so it isn't so scratchy. But this is a minor thing and probably just preference. Would like to have more different scents to pick from. But I figure that would cost more to produce. So for now these are just fine for washing up after work.

Very happy with this purchase! I chose the citrus assortment, and they smell good overall; I started with my least favorite, so each time I start a new bar it's better than the one before. But there are none I actually dislike. They lather up really well, don't dry my skin out, and rinse off nicely (I strongly dislike soaps that leave my skin feeling all slippery). I was a little hesitant after reading the reviews that said they only lasted a few showers, but that hasn't been true for me. I've had them a couple days short of 6 months, shower every other day unless it's really hot out, and I use a terrycloth washcloth with lots of soap rubbed on to wash from neck to feet (also have more than average skin surface area as a tall size 2-3X). As of this morning the bar I'm currently using has about 1/4 to 1/5 left, and there's still one bar left in the box. When they get really thinned down I press them onto the new bar and they meld onto it nicely with one or two uses. I'm absolutely reordering these, and I love that they're Canadian-made!

Great fragrance, good lather, feel super clean and leave you smelling amazing

Fantastic soap. Beautiful scent

I haven’t use this soap yet but it dose look and smell very very nice.. I’ll update my review if needed.

I’ve been using Crate 61 Dry Skin Vegan Natural Bar Soap — and I genuinely love it. These cold-pressed, handmade bars are rich and creamy, thanks to high-quality plant oils like olive, coconut, and avocado that clean without stripping moisture. They smell amazing, with natural essential oil fragrances that feel fresh yet subtle on the skin. The soap lathers well, rinses clean, and leaves my skin soft and nourished rather than dry or tight. Packaging is eco-friendly, too. Overall, it’s a lovely all-natural, vegan option that elevates my daily routine — perfect for both face and body.

Great product, smells really soothing. Will be my permanent soap and will continue to purchase.
