Reviews
High Quality Shea Butter Soap Here!
"I wanted to start with the Apiary No. 55 scent: As I said in my review of the Apiary No. 55 Shea Butter Body & Hand Creme review, this scent has a similar effect to lavender (a calming/soothing effect), but without having any lavender essential oil or fragrance in it, which is is nice for people who want a lavender alternative effect/scent base. Apiary No. 55 also features a fresh and clean opening note to its scent, accompanied by a honey-like sweetness as its base note. Next, I would like to discuss saponified coconut oil and palm oil. If you have mild-to-moderate skin dysbiosis from other soaps stripping all the good oils and microbiome of your skin, or from using liquid castile soap that can be too harsh for skin sometimes, or from fungal/microbiome overgrowth (think candida/yeast), I researched it, and saponified coconut oil and palm oil contain Lauric and Caprylic Acids in them, and this helps cleam skin and break-up fungal/microbial biofilms and disrupt their growth, which can help with skin dysbiosis/sensitivity in the long run and create a healthy microbiome of the skin once again. Also, natural and, in particular, saponified coconut oil body soap bars tend to stay on the skin longer and clean longer than liquid natural castile soap does, and in particular, saponified coconut oil is not as harsh in soap bars. So, I was having some heavy fatigue and using Dr. Bronner's liquid castile soap in Peppermint or Citrus, and it was cleaning too harshly, causing a rebound skin microbial/candida overgrowth after I would shower, and when I switched to Formulary 55 shea butter body soaps, the smell of my sweat went way down, I didn't feel unclean, and it even helped with my residual Fibromyalgia fatigue by about 10%, which amazed me, and this is when I did some research on all of this. So, to get to my point, try Formulary 55's Shea Butter Body Bar Soaps, and try a few scents until you find one that fits you (I bet they have something for you, product and scent-wise, for you to try!). Also, to give hope to others, finding that commercial products are too harsh or their liquid castile soap is too harsh, try Formulary 55's soaps. It might even help with rebalancing your skin microbiome! Also, don't throw away your liquid castile soap if you stop using it; re-purpose it into laundry soap, dish/hand soap, or as a cleaning product for washing/mopping floors."

Best moisturizing sop
"This soap is worth every dime. It moisturizes my skin beautifully, the Apiary No 55 smells sweet but in a fresh and light way and the bar is long lasting. I keep coming back for more. Two favorite products are the soap and the hand/body cream. Hope you soon make the Apiary No. 55 in the travel size tube."

Fabulous soap!
"Love the soap! So gentle on the skin and nourishing. I like how it leaves a subtle hint of fragrance on the body. I discovered your product four years ago and fell in love with it after the first bar. I have been buying faithfully since then. Thank you for a great product!"
