Great Soaps that Smell and Feel Amazing!!
I just started using Zum bars and overall loving everything about them.  They are on the more expensive side when it comes to soaps, but I feel they are worth every penny considering what you are getting.  They are all natural using minerals, herbs, and essential oils, along with pH balancing goats milk.  The soaps themselves come in a wide array of scents and textures and do not irrtiate or dry out my skin.  I love how they make me feel after use and how they make my whole bathroom smell for the rest of the day.  I feel with that alone, it makes it worth the price.  So far I've only used the sea salt one and I love the exfoliating properties it possesses with actual pieces of salt embedded in the soap.<br /><br />One thing I've noticed, is the soaps are softer and while this helps with their moisturizing aspect it also means they won't last long.  I found cutting the bars in smaller pieces (in thirds), and keeping the rest in parchment or in a dry place helps extend the life by quite a bit.  Also usng a loofah to help with the lather and storing the soaps  on or in something to minimize water contact helps too, I feel for each bar, I can make last about 2 months using these extra steps.<br /><br />My only issue with the ingredients is the fact they do use palm oil from RSPO and unless it can truly be eithically sourced and sustainable without the destruction of forests and threats to indigenous people, it makes it harder to support these products for the long term.  Just be wary of that.  I do hope some day they can phase that out and find an alternative as I do adore these products
