What is a soap bag?

A soap bag, also known as a soap saver bag, is a small, often mesh or fabric, bag designed to hold a bar of soap or soap scraps. It typically has a drawstring or closure to secure the soap inside. Soap bags offer several benefits:

1. Exfoliation: The texture of the bag can help exfoliate the skin while washing, providing a gentle scrub.
2. Improved Lather: By rubbing the soap inside the bag, you can create more lather than using the soap directly.
3. Reduced Waste: Soap bags can help use up small soap scraps that are difficult to handle and would otherwise be discarded.
4. Convenience: They provide an easy way to store and use soap, often with a loop for hanging in the shower.

Soap bags can be made from various materials, including natural fibers like cotton or sisal, as well as synthetic materials like nylon mesh.
