The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 14 December 2023 7 Comments

From Bruno Fazzolari's Fzotic brand, Opoponax bar soap: "Bruno Fazzolari created a rare soap using a limited quantity of genuine opoponax resin that they acquired. The soap has a rich, earthy fragrance balanced with sweet tonka bean and fresh cypress. Opoponax resin has been traditionally used in skincare and incense and is known for its calming properties. The soap includes their proprietary blend of botanical oils and clay, such as shea butter and apricot kernel oil, leaving your skin soft and delicately moisturized. This huge shower bar weighs in at nearly half a pound. " $18 for 200g at Smallflower.

    Ha! For once, I have two bars waiting in the wings to be used “next”.

    I bought one of these. He was doing a flash sale on his soaps. It was actually delivered today but I haven’t opened it!

    I was sorely tempted by this during the flash sale on Fzotic soaps, but I have super hard water. So I gave it a pass.

      Pretty hard water here too, but shower filter helps.

    I also have a bar but haven’t started using it yet. I’ll report back once I do!
