    I was that annoying soaper at the stand!

    Do most soap sellers know what a Salt Bar is? I came across a seller that had no clue and said, "all soap has salt in it". I think some sellers are just friends/family manning the booth and know just enough to answer the usual easy questions.

    Suggestions for facial scrub please :)

    I've always had HUGE pores on my schnoz that barely fits my face. Started cleansing with 60% Sunflower, 40% Castor, every other night. Now 100% Castor every other night. Pores now cleaner and tighter. Good Luck, Roy
