Miw Piw Vegan Dish Soap Bar Pack 2- Large 5 Ounce - Lather Clean Safe Ingredients- Plastic Free

I was hesitant and skeptical about using bar soap for dishes, but once I got past the initial phase of being grossed out by the idea of lingering bacteria left on bar soap, which was put to rest after research (bar soap is completely safe to use), I wanted to kick myself for not transitioning to using bar soap in the kitchen sooner, or should I say, backtracking to it since this is how our elders and ancestors washed their dishes, amongst other things. Don't fix what isn't broken is a good adage for many modern ways of living. We should never have started using plastic containers for virtually everything, and we definitely shouldn't purchase products from companies competing with one another by making new "improved" formulas (even the so-called natural-based ones). Anyway, back to this particular bar soap. I have just finished hand washing everything, from silverware to pots and pans. I gotta say, I enjoyed using this soap! Not only did it clean my metal utensils and my ceramic bowls, it also smelled clean and fresh, like how a clear breeze should smell (not at all like the synthetic fragrances in detergents and perfumes that use the title "clean breeze/fresh scent"). I have extremely sensitive skin (and nose) and there appears to be no irritation (I skipped using gloves to feel the soap) and my hands feel silky smooth without being dried out. I have not seen any spots or residue on my dark ceramic ware. My drinking glasses and pyrex bowls are crystal clear as well. I picked this soap over others because the company uses eco-friendly packaging and having two bars is awesome since I can probably use the other one for something else. The price is also unbeatable. So many companies out there that I looked into have expensive bars that crumble easily. This soap bar is dense and easily transfers onto cleaning utensils and makes suds quickly too. Also, the ingredients in this are simple and I like how it has absolutely no palm oil, which was another key factor for me when I looked for a truly environmentally friendly answer to washing dishes. I have used Seventh Generation, Biokleen, and Ecos to name a few, but all their hand dish soaps (even when bought in bulk and shipped from their warehouses) are stored in bulky plastic. In comparison, I use a lot more liquid soap than I did with the amount of bar soap. I used a skoy scrub pad on the bar to transfer the soap, and sometimes I just made soapy water by rubbing my hands over the bar under the faucet. For reference, I used both hot and cold temperature well water. I keep it on a sink caddy, which has metal bars and a drip pan underneath. It was simple to use, like it should be, and I have to say I did not miss pressing down on a pump or squeezing a plastic container to get soap out. This bar is my new cleaning staple for the kitchen. Wow, I wrote a lot, hah. >_< Read more

I thought of trying it out as I’m getting rashes with normal soap and hot water. Soap is good for cleaning dishes. It’s soft on hands as it’s completely made of vegan. Used only couple of times but looks like it lasts long. Read more

Works great to wash all my dishes! Lathers good and rinces off good! Thank you for this fine product! I would recommend others to give it a try! Read more

I tried 2 bar soaps for dishwashing to cut back on plastic in the house and this one wins. It's a pretty good size bar and from others I've seen this price seems fair. The other larger brand I tried had a waxy smell to it and left more residue on the sink, and broke apart faster. Others I looked at were tiny and expensive. This one says lemon scent in the description but fragrance-free in the title. There is a faint lemon scent, which I like because it means no waxy smell. It works. It does cut grease if worked into a lather and rinsed thoroughly, even on cookware. I do keep a small liquid dish soap under the sink for guests. The bar soap is something to get used to, and does leave a waxy residue on the sink over time (but for some reason does not stick to dishes). I regularly scrub my old sink so it doesn't bother me. Photo shows use of 1 bar after 2 weeks, there's still plenty left in the soapdish. Overall I'm very happy with this product, and hope that more products like this will show up in the world so there's a planet left for our kids instead of a pile of garbage. Read more

Editing my review. I started out thinking it was pretty great. However, once it was used on heavily soiled/greasy dishes I realized it just wasn't. It did end up leaving a hevy film, even on my hands, that was hard to scrub off. The citronella candle smell got very tiring, too. I started to dread using it. Sorry, but this is a big no from me. I haven't used this on any especially greasy or heavily soiled dishes yet, but I can tell it is good dish soap. It doesn't leave a film like the last kind I tried, suds fine (not over the top bubbles, but I don't like that, anyway), nice big bars at a great price. It smells kind of strange...like a citronella candle...but that's okay. It's a natural, plastic free alternative that works, so I am happy! Read more

I purchased this dish soap bar to support more environmentally friendly product. It works as intended after I learned how to use this product with a bamboo dish brush. However, I personally find that it has a really strong smell. After my first few days of purchasing, I was not sure where the strong fragrance smell is coming from after washing my dishes, until I realize it’s coming from this soap. I found myself trying to finish the soap as soon as I can so I can get back to my liquid soap again. So overall it works fine but maybe it is just not made for me. Read more

I really like this dish soap bar as it's zero waste, no bulky plastic bottles with liquid soap spilling everywhere. The smell doesn't bother me and it does make my dishes feel clean. I just rub the bar soap on my sponge and it lathers up. Read more

I am trying not to buy anymore plastic containers, recycled or otherwise. This soap works great, cuts grease and leaves dishes clean. No film left, I rinse well with very hot water. The bars are not going to have the lather like the liquid dish soap because the liquid soap contains chemicals to make lather. I don’t think it smells bad at all and I have a sensitive nose, a lot of smells make me nauseous but I really don’t smell anything like what others say is a strong scent. It doesn’t have any fake smell added like the liquid soap does. It has lasted me 7 months. Also my sponge doesn’t smell bad, ever. With dawn my new sponge smells bad in a few days. I noticed dawn says it kills germs then in tiny writing “antibacterial hand soap” so it’s not killing germs on the dishes like these bars do. Packaging is paper, wonderful! I won’t be using anything else in the future. Read more
