Color, ingredients
The frosted glass looks good. The color of the plastic and silicone parts is darker than in photos, though. Judging from the website it's supposed to be off-white, actually called "classic linen," but the ones they sent out seem to be more beige. If that doesn't suit, there's also a "midnight blue" color available, which is a sort of medium gray blue judging from the photos (which may or may not be reliable).<br /><br />Or you can take the silicone skirt off this--it's made so it's removable, good for occasional cleaning--and replace the push top with whatever color you want. It's a standard size. I think it looks better without the skirt even with the beige top. Just be careful not to break the bottle. It feels pretty sturdy.<br /><br />The scent of the soap is lavender with citrus. (Not coconut--that's in the photo because it's where some of the saponified oil comes from.)<br /><br />It washes well, doesn't leave any noticeable residue for me, though I suppose the aloe juice is intended to moisturize some.<br /><br />It comes oddly over-packaged but in cardboard that can be recycled or biodegraded.<br /><br />The ingredients given at the website are:<br /><br />Saponified coconut oil, saponified olive oil, potassium soap, aloe juice, citric acid, sodium chloride (table salt), natural essential oil blend, vitamin E.<br /><br />It's not clear why potassium soap is listed separately from the saponified oils, since that's what potassium soap is, oils turned into soap by the addition of potassium hydroxide (potash).
