Soap Saver!
I remember my grandmother made soap savers for her bar soaps. I never really thought too much about it. People don’t use bar soap as much as they used to. But in the present situation that we are in, it’s important not to waste anything including soap. So, I decided that since my family could use a soap saver that other people might be interested in making some. You can give it out as a gift along with a face Poof (which is my name for a makeup remover/reusable face cleanser pad)
