Trader Joe's Oatmeal Soap

Here is a new product that caught our eye the last time we were at Trader Joe’s:  Trader Joe’s Oatmeal Exfoliant Ginger Almond Soap.

Can you really have too many bars of soap in the bathroom?

Well, the answer could be, yes. In fact we are approaching a dangerous situation in our tub, as we bought yet another new product. It’s not that the products we have are bad; it is more that we LOVE to buy/try new stuff.

So when we saw the oatmeal soap I knew we would have to make room for one more product.

This soap is a nice big bar that produces lots of thick white lather. It also has nubby bits of oatmeal studded in the bar, so there is almost a “scrubby” thing going on when you use the soap. And the smell…. the combination of oatmeal, ginger and almost… yum! But the best part is that the scent is pleasant and NOT strong or overwhelming in the least.

Also, we like that this bar is firm. We do not like those soap bars that feel soft and almost dent or break apart after only a couple of uses. Or those fancy soaps that seem to “melt” away after the first week.

Because of the oatmeal (or despite the oatmeal who really knows) this soap is gentle on our skin and is not drying it out like some soap can.

Have you tried this product? What did you think?
