"My girlfriend made the switch to SLS-free soap a few years ago after realizing that it was causing her all kinds of skin irritation. She was always looking for new soaps at craft shows and farmers markets and such but I remember distinctly when she stumbled onto B&F. I really liked the smell of Barlesque and told her to keep getting more of it. I didn't use it but I liked when she did. - - - - One day, after she had just showered and subsequently filled the bathroom Barlesqueness, I had to give it a whirl. I was stuck in the dark ages at the time, using whatever liquid garbage caught my eye at the grocery store. The first time I rinsed off after using this magical bar, I was struck by how much better my skin felt. Most liquid soaps leave an artificial layer of moisture that, at least to me, just feels slimy. With Barlesque, my skin felt totally clean but not dried out. - - - - Within a few uses I was hooked. What I didn\'t know is how amazing the scent of real lavender is I had only smelled the noxious potpourri that big companies refer to as "lavender". I was shocked and how spicy and downright manly it is. There is nothing "girly" about this scent. Needless to say, one sniff of the (in my opinion, ironically named) Momma Bar and I was certain I would never go back to my old ways."
