Softsoap Appeals to My Senses
Thursday, July 2nd, 2009
I’m picky about certain things. One thing I can’t stand are ugly, logo-splashed soap containers sitting on my sink. I’m not a real logo-lover, recently becoming annoyed when searching for polo shirts for the boys that didn’t have some picture or word on them as well. I just don’t find it necessary. Similarly, the ugly wording on soap containers, even soaps that I prefer, really annoyed the heck out of me. When I was contacted about Softsoap’s new Ensembles products, I was intrigued.
No splashy logo. No words. In fact, these look kind of designer-like, fancier than even our glass toothbrush holder. But that’s the nice thing and, really, the point. The bottles come in four lovely designs that go with a variety color combinations. When the bottle is empty, remove the spout, toss the empty one and put the spout into a new container. Choose the same color or change it up as an instant upgrade to your sink top.
Don’t believe me that it’s “that” easy? Watch this video!
I’m thrilled that I no longer have two not-so-great solutions to my sink soap needs. I was forced to either deal with the ugly logos and colors that didn’t match my bathroom or kitchen or deal with putting soap into a container that matched the room in question but would either break (like our last one) or be a waste of soap during the transfer. Lose-lose there. We now have the lovely blue (Exotic Orchid) in our bathroom (though rumor has it that one will be leaving soon as the seasons change so I need to go buy all of those up) and the purple flower ones (Fresh Essence) in our kitchen (as we have Fiestaware’s plum as our main kitchen theme). The soaps, of course, smell lovely as well. Not overpowering like some on the market.
And so, if you’re a logo-hater in need of a color match for your bathroom, kitchen or laundry room, consider picking up some Softsoap Ensembles today. (But please forward all Exotic Orchid to me. Thanks!)
