In the UK, we have many different detergents for many different uses. For us, we choose a soap on purpose and frangrance. For ourselves, a tea-tree cleansing soap for our faces, a sea-mineral spa-gel for bath and shower, a colour and hair-type matched shampoo for our noggins, an anti-bacterial handwash and perhaps even a exfoliating foot-scrub. For our apparel, a white-enhancing biological powder for our brilliant whites, a colour-preserving non-bio gel for our bright colour-washes. For our dishes, a strong-on-grease-yet-mild-on-your-hands liquid for use within our sinks and a powerball-reinforced tablet for our dishwashers.

Refreshingly, Africa has the antidote to our consumeristic faux-necessities:

I love the bit on the packaging which says ‘125g - when packed’. As if to say ‘it might not be 125g when you buy it’. Is soap thieving a popular activity in Zam then?

Btw, Ramadam Kareem - the Holy Month started over here today. You’ll soon be experiencing all the festivities yourself…

Yalla, much love xxx

How strange, I have just seen a delivery lorry on the M69 emblazoned with the Sunlight soap logo ! It was exactly the same as the picture of the one on your blog. Perhaps we should all start using it - we could save a small fortune.
Love Mum xx
