Friendly Mini Soaps (for hotels and guesthouses)
Friendly Mini Soaps (made in Northumberland) are all vegan and free from palm oil (so orangutan-friendly to protect their forest habits) and sold in zero waste paper packaging. They are sold in packs of 24 or 126, ideal for small bed-and-breakfasts to large hotels.
Some prefer to use scented bars, others may prefer to just use unscented to cover those with allergies or pregnancy/nursing. Avoid shea butter for latex allergies. Also read our post on dog shampoos (info on water temperatures and essential oils to avoid – never use on allergies or cats).
These are presently available in the following scents (Aloe vera unscented is full size only):
- Lavender (relaxing)
- Lemongrass (a good antibacterial hand soap)
- Lavender Geranium (floral hair & body wash)
- Patchouli Sandalwood (earthy)
Made with coconut and rapeseed oil, they are shipped in plastic and cardboard packaging (no plastic). Which also saves you money, due to upcoming single-use plastic bans for hotels (like toiletry bottles and ketchup sachets).
