I usually purchase these while in Jordan but haven’t made it back in a few years and needed a new stash. Love that the website provides information on the different brands. It was easy to put together a selection of the ones I wanted and they shipped quickly. Not a huge markup from purchasing in person. Great resource for great soap. These are the only soaps my dry and sensitive skin can handle in the winter months. Highly recommend both soap and retailer!
