Anyone tried Silvasan soap?

[stu1979uk]

Has anyone tried this soap? Seen it ages ago and decided to order some and give it a bash. Now called Silvatec for some reason

Nope - and I wont be since its made from palm oil - the production of which is a major cause of deforestation

And palm oil sounds like some onanistic aid[h=3][/h]

Didn't see any mention of palm oil. Just looked again at the ingredients and seen- Sodium Palmate and Sodium Palm Kernelate. I presume this is from palm oil?

Just done a quick google search, seems palm oil is in bloody everything. It just shows we have very little knowledge of what we are purchasing, where it comes from or the damaged caused by the process.

Spot on stu ...I really struggled to find soap without palm oil (let alone half the stuff in the house), so took to making my own in disgust

Yes I know it well its ok smells a bit funky if I remember right but it does what it says on the tin you don't stink for at least another day or two!

Good on you, something I have never thought of trying

Now thinking of Brad Pitt in fight club stealing human fat from the liposuction clinic skips

I found Dr Bronner's Magic Soap, hemp oil, lavender oil, no palm oil and nothing eco-unfriendly that I can find...........it's nice, very nice, to use and rinses completely and instantly away............I bought a 237ml bottle of it (it's a liquid soap) for around a lady godiva and it lasted for about 4 months (I live alone). I can't recommend it highly enough...............no connection 'n' all that....................atb mac

BTW: You need to be able to ignore a load of god stuff on the label - he's some flavour of Californian evangelist......................
