I never throw away remnants, I give them a second life: you can’t buy this in a store

If you use bar soap, then you definitely end up with soap residue. I admit, when I was young, I threw away such pieces of soap without looking. But now I’ve adapted to give them a second life.

And I’ll say right away, anticipating comments like: “What are you doing out of poverty?” No, not from poverty. I just don’t see the point in throwing away a product that can be put to good use.

Sponge with soap

I make a deep cut in the side of the sponge, it turns out to be something like a pocket, and I put pieces of soap in it. Just wet this sponge with water, squeeze it lightly, and it’s ready for cleaning. I clean the bathtub with this sponge after washing. Very convenient, no need to grab the soap and lather the sponge every time.

Cleaning gel

There is a liter opaque bottle in the cleaning cabinet. As soon as I collect 10-15 remnants, I fill a bottle with water and throw the remnants into it. In a day, a wonderful liquid soap is ready. It can be used either for washing or for cleaning surfaces, in particular the sink.

Aromasache

I wrap the soaps in napkins and put them on the shelves with linen. A very good alternative to expensive flavors and sachets.

All the best!
