MandH Posted December 7, 2013 #1 Share Posted December 7, 2013 On all of our Seabourn cruises, we always choose the unbranded "gritty" soap (you know the one) when offered by our cabin stewardess. I've always forgotten to ask who makes it as I'd like to buy one here on dry land. Anyone know what it is and where I might buy it here in the UK?

markham Posted December 7, 2013 #2 Share Posted December 7, 2013 It is Essence and has a website beaudelairesoaps.com Happy sailing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poppy1966 Posted December 7, 2013 #3 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Buying off their website incurs fairly hefty shipping charges from the US to the UK however it can be bought online at http://www.vitamingrocer.co.uk. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincslady Posted December 7, 2013 #4 Share Posted December 7, 2013 We all have different tastes - I have never liked the 'gritty' one, but adore the Occitane, and take it home where it lasts for ages. We also like the little Hermes one, and use that on board. Vive la difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaneBP Posted December 8, 2013 #7 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I always pick the lemon-scented soap. I unwrap it and toss it in my suitcase, makes a great sachet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that is the Occitane one, and it goes on smelling gorgeously of lemon all the way to the end. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rl787 Posted December 8, 2013 #13 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I like the Occi soap too, even as a guy I think it smells so good I buy it for home, I find as it lasts so long it is not really all that more expensive than Cussons....... For some reason there is also always an offer on if you spend say £40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanBart Posted December 23, 2013 #14 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I too fell in love with this soap and finally tracked it down on iherb.com - an American company. I bought 10 bars and they shipped it to France (they will ship worldwide) and it was only 4usd shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
