7 Tips and Tricks to Make your Soap Last Longer

1. Store your soap properly. Store your soap in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Soap can fade, discolour and may lose its fragrance if left in direct sunlight. This will also help prevent it from melting or becoming too soft.
2. Keep your soap dry. After you use your soap, rinse it off and let it air dry completely. When soap is wet, it dissolves more quickly. So, avoid leaving your soap in the shower or bath, and always store it in a dry place.
3. Use a soap dish with drainage. A soap dish with good drainage will prevent the soap from sitting in water. This will help keep your soap dry.
4. Use a washcloth. Using a washcloth when you wash your hands or body will help you use less soap.
5. Don't leave your soap in the shower. If you leave your soap in the shower, it will be constantly exposed to water and moisture, which will cause it to dissolve faster.
6. Cut your soap into smaller pieces. If you have a large bar of soap, you can cut it into smaller pieces. This will make it easier to use and will also help it last longer.
7. Avoid using water that is too hot. Hot water can cause soap to dissolve faster. If you want your soap to last longer, use cooler water.
