I saw these soaps (http://www.pure-natural.com/) at Wal-Mart tonight.
Has anyone tried these yet?
They're suppose to be 98% natural. The bar soap packaging supposedly contains baby's breath seeds and can be planted. :eek: :D
Thr ingredients list on the packaging was a bit small for my eyes, but it looked like good stuff from what I could tell.

I've tried the Almond and Cherry Blossom bar soap, fairly decent for what it is, nice smell too. I couldn't tell you about the ingredients because the packaging for mine is long gone. If you can I'd wait til they go on sale or clearance, but they're still only 4.99 for two bars (here anyway). All in all nothing special, but it's better than a lot of stuff out there. If you like the scent enough I'd say go for it, they're plenty moisturizing...though Dr. Bronner's makes my skin feel the best out of the ones I've tried from Target.
edit: if you're near a Target, they also carry Method bar soaps which I like a lot better, and of course Dr. Bronner's. They also have Jason, Weleda, and Kiss My Face products. I've never tried any of these three but I think there's a few good words about each on these forums.

I'll have to take a look at them next time I'm there.
Jason and Kiss My Face soaps dried my skin too much the only time I tried them.
I carry handmade soap with me if I have to travel anywhere.
Hotel soaps; blech!

If people really knew what "milled" is. It's extruded through French machines. Does that mean it's better? I don't think so. It's just snobby label appeal.

Irena, that just made me smile. Too many manufacturers use fancy wording to mislead us.

I used to use a soap called Pure & Natural years ago. It was in a plain white wrapper with simple lettering. It was the cheapest that didn't smell like Ivory. I recall from the label that it was made by Dove. I'm not sure it this it the same.

Yea, I recall the plain white wrapper Pure & Natural. I don't think this is the same.
For one thing, the website doesn't link to any BIG companies' websites.
