Sea to Summit Wilderness Wash Pocket Soap

The Sea to Summit Wilderness Wash Pocket Soap packs fifty biodegradable soap leaves into a 17 g pocket-sized pack — a fairly high number of uses for such a small weight, since one leaf wetted and lathered in the hands is enough per use. The soap is marketed as multi-purpose, covering hands, body, hair and dishes, which cuts down on the need to carry several separate products. Unlike the "scent-free" formulations often marketed in this category, this one is scented — worth checking in advance for sensitive skin or for hikers who prefer to avoid fragranced products outdoors. Vegan, phosphate- and paraben-free ticks the expected boxes for a product meant for use away from a sewage system, though biodegradable doesn't mean it should be washed directly into streams or lakes without care. The leaf format instead of liquid or bar soap removes the risk of spills inside a pack and makes dosing easy — you use exactly as much as one wash requires. The compact pack also fits within airline carry-on liquid limits.
