Does less superfatted soap last longer?

[Guest]

Just wondering if using a recipe with a higher superfat percentage results in a soap that doesn't last as long as one with a lower percentage?

The higer the superfat the softer the soap so if you want to know will it last as long than something with a lower SF when it is being used then I think the answer would be no you do however have a more moisturizing bar of soap....

If you mean being stored lasting longer - that one I don't know but maybe someone else would...

Thanks Lindy I did mean lasting in the shower from start to finish.

I agree with Lindy .. the harder the bar, the longer it lasts. If you have a softer soap, a soap bag is a great alternative because you can even use the mush/slivers.
