This is my kitchen sink. Anyone who knows me and has seen my kitchen, knows there are dishes piled up just outside of the camera lens here. HA!
One way I have "cleaned up my act" in the kitchen is that I found this dish soap bar! No more plastic bottle of liquid dish soap! This one I bought online at a site I really like called Zero Waste Cartel. Here is their website

I also use bars of soap to wash hands. No more liquid soap that comes in plastic pouches to refill my soap dispensers! So, invest in good soap dishes. I recommend to minimize mess, ones that have a tray that collects the water underneath. That way you can empty whatever water and soap collected instead of having it all over your sink. Just use a small scrub brush once in a while to clean up the soap that collects on the ridges of the soap dish. I use a small nail brush.
EXTRA TIP for water conservation: I have that little watering can next to the sink to collect any un-drunken (un-drank ?) water that otherwise may end up down the drain. If there is water left in a glass that didn't get drunk, I pour it in there! Then use it to water plants.
Let us know if you've tried this product or another to replace dish soap from a plastic bottle. Please share ideas as well! Thanks!

How do you like the bar soap? I haven’t tried this yet.
ReplyDeleteI like it! It takes some getting used to at first though. You use your scrub brush to apply the soap instead of just getting to pour in a liquid. It's a little messier but effective. There is another brand I was going to try, so I'll check it out and compare. Thanks Gina!
