    Default Switching out my 'active' soap.

    I've got a few new soaps in, and I would like to try them. Thing is, I don't want to waste the two I already have (also fairly new). So, I am curious, once I start using a soap, do I have to use it all before going to the next one, or can you pull it out of rotation and store it somehow. Note, it's been used. CVould I just dry it and put it in a baggie, use a dessicant, etc...?

    Thanks,
    John

    Dry it out and use a ziplock bag or even a small plastic container. Search around as I've seen some pictures of different storage ideas for the cake soap.

    check out this place. http://www.specialtybottle.com/

    I bought a hand full of plastic round jars and tins from here. It seems like something close to 3" diameter works pretty good.

    P.S. But make sure it fits your soap size

    Hey its just soap. Just make sure its dry and put it in a tight fitting container just to keep the dirt and moisture out and your good to go.

    Justin,

    ZipLoc makes containers that are re-usable. I use the XS bowls, which are perfect for storing most soaps, seal off nicely and are stackable.

    It's not hard to find a Walmart around here. I'll take a look into it.
