How should I store this soap to maintain its quality and longevity?

To maintain the integrity of the herbal ingredients, such as eucalyptus oil and marsh ledum, store the soap in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Exposure to heat and light can degrade aromatic compounds and affect the soap's scent and efficacy over time. Additionally, because this is a solid soap bar, proper drainage is essential to prevent it from becoming soft or mushy.

Use a soap dish with slats or a rack that allows water to drain away from the bar. This ensures the soap dries out between uses, extending its lifespan and maintaining a firm texture. Avoid leaving the soap in standing water or in a closed container while wet, as this can promote bacterial growth and cause the soap to break down prematurely.
