It’s crazy that people thought that paying more than $2-$3 for a burger was insane, but now we don’t bat an eye when they can reach $9-$12. The same thing for soaps now. I’ll pay $8-$10 if it smells great and has top notch ingredients. Thanks for the intro to the company Ash!
I actually appreciate you putting in time stamps, it means you actually want to be useful to your viewers. There are many youtubers who don't put in timestamps for the soul purpose of preventing skipping and increasing watch time, and don't get me wrong people are here to make money and that's 100% okay but I definitely feel much nicer knowing as a consumer, that the content producer/creator is actually putting in effort to help and is willing to be convenient even if that means maybe losing a little $ in the long run.
You should check out soap distillery, all of their soaps are based on different alcoholic beverages and they smell great, plus their $8. Negroni, beer & cigarettes, and mint mojito are my favorites. Also, can you check a brand called wary meyers, they have some cool-looking soap and they made a bar of soap with ds&durga called iso e soaper.
Dude. If you like soaps and fragrances. Best indie company for both these worlds in one run is Cellar Door Bath Supply Co. Really high quality 100% organic soaps with great scents ! After shower you do not need to apply any fragrance because scent of these make you a sillage for few hours.
@@tkurban You are welcome :) i am also using only their soaps for bath (never use any of those chemical shower gels again) and yes the scent is really heavy but i am in love with them.
These actually look fantastic and the names are awesome lol. My only concern is... won't using high quality soaps take away from or interfere with wearing any fragrance you apply afterwards? With less expensive soap, you don't have to worry about the scent lasting for long which is ideal if you intend on wearing a fragrance.
Actually that’s far from the truth. I have a bottle of Sauvage shower gel and Ambre nuit soap bars from Dior. None of them have any lasting power. It’s just for self satisfaction when you wash yourself. Once you step out of the shower, the scents gone 🤷♂️
@@Q_N- thanks for the clarification. I wouldn't have known. I just kind of figured there was more to the expensive soaps. Maybe I'll check them out some time. Always used liquid soap personally
@@TranceForLyfe Honestly I felt like I’ve wasted money on self satisfaction 🤣 So I switched over to buying my soaps from “The soap guy”. It’s essentially where Dr Squatch gets their products from. And the soaps are high quality hand made. There’s a myriad of selections, you might find something you like 👍
Great video Ash! Would love to see you get into the wet shaving game and discuss shave soaps, aftershaves and perfume layering. It’s a lot of fun trying to figure out what meshes well together. For some pretty awesome soap check out Stirling Soap Co and Southern Witchcrafts (horror and sci-fi themed…right up your alley). Be well!
Hi! This is Amanda’s husband, Mike. The response to Ash’s review has been fantastic. Unfortunately, A Mandatory Activity’s soaps are made by hand in small batches to ensure high-quality. The bars require several weeks to cure fully so that you get the longest-lasting bar. I hope you will consider placing an order and we promise to ship it as soon as it’s ready. If not, consider ordering some of the other great bars that are still in stock, like some of our beer soaps or Pipe Dream. We look forward to having you as a customer.
I am in the process of beginning my own soap business. I would love to send you products to try and review! Cold process soap with high quality ingredients! Currently I have a little something for everyone, even our mechanics out there! Please let me know if you would be interested!
Hey Ash, if you'd like an idea for another soap review and since you previously reviewed Beardbrand's EDP's...check out their Gold Line fragrance Utility Bars!
I bought their soap and love them because they just work well ans don't dry my skin out, but with shipping cost and the price of the soap it can get pricey at 9 or 10 dollars a bar plus 9 dollars shipping. What other bars do you recomend that don't dry you out that are similar
I appreciate it Ashton on the suggestion about this soap company that I never even knew it existed until I saw this video and I ended up purchasing me three bars of their soaps I can't wait till they come in 😊💯💯💯
@@sk8girldecks11 I have corrected what was a predictive text error. But…….you obviously don’t know anything about Lush, the quality of the ingredients, Constantine and the lengths he goes to in order to create the perfumes that are made. I have a collection of over 300 bottles have been in this hobby for decades and know what I’m talking about. Not all Lush is to my taste, but to label it as garbage demonstrates an ignorance and arrogance of epic proportions.
Sadly, we do not ship to the UK because of various regulatory requirements for recipe registration and packaging that apply there. A Mandatory Activity currently ships to the US and Canada.
If anyone wants an incredible bar of soap I would recommend the Mysore sandal millennium edition. It's $30 which is pretty pricey but it's pretty much the ideal soap for me and it's made with a high concentration of sandalwood oil.
I know I’m super in the minority but I’d love to see you do candle reviews! Stuff like Lelabo, PF candles, jo Malone, etc
I second that request
Same
Ooouuuu yesss i love candles
which one is the best for you if u were to pick one?
I would love that too there’s only a few that do this

I remember when Carls Jr./Hardy's released the "$6 Burger" as their premium offering. I believe they still sell them, but under a different name.

Dang, these sound way better than the pacha soaps I get from whole foods. Thanks for the recommendation, I'll certainly check them out.
How long does the sent last on your body.
Sold ash. best intro for a soap company. Def getting the steampunk one and taking it to europe
Make a video of best soapy fragrances 😇🔥
Just ordered two of the candles. I’m sure it’ll be great
Thank you for your order.
Dude! Check out Stirling Soap Company!!!
I like this type of content.
Sounds awesome just ordered 2 bars of pipe dream and the chai tea candle
Thank you for your order.
Going on their website this company actually looks pretty awesome.

The black stuff is the best I've had. Their Irish mountain rain is by far the best.

Ive also tried Squatch, duke cannon. Both of which dry my skin out
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try out these products and have a blessed night
Fancy branching in to candle reviews?

Try Lush Karma. It’s the most amazing soap-scent ever!
Lush is garbage lol

@@lordcharfield4529 yeah I’m sure 😂
Did you pay for these or were they given to you?
Birchwood breeze is the best
Some of thoss candles smell more like a kitchen 😁
The soaps tho....yes please! Do they deliver to the u.k?

You can find it cheap on Amazon. Been getting the mysore sandalwood soap for years.
Shame it's not here in the uk😮
I wonder what are the best soap and cologne layering combos?
Mistral

Less taking more SOAP!!!
"Black canyon home and body" makes some incredible body wash, and scents in general. My favorite is root beer float

Just a heads up, the websites sort system is a bit of a mess atm
Also I highly recommend root beer float and caramel apple
@@papasamdaddyflex whats the website address???!
Looks like the link was deleted
Awesome video
I swear I read "Soup" in the title, so of course I clicked. I love soup.
get that bag Ashhhhhhh

I’m gonna wait for the soap guy to blend some of these. They’re mad expensive 😩
Of course all the ones I wanted were on back order. Was about to spend $50 but there back ordered. Oh well they just lost that 50
Get to the point
