You want soap with plastic bits in it?
I cannot possibly be the only person who misses the soap with the plastic bits in it. If they could do that without the environmental damage (I’m looking at you, Great Lakes ecosystem), I’d be into it

Is it still legal to have this in the USA?
It has been banned in Europe in 2018, but allowing to sell the stocks for 6 years). Now they use nuts shells powder, apricot kernal powder, or similar things. It’s not necessary to put platic in it.

It probably is still legal, but it’s not something I’ve looked for in like a decade. We do have products that use ground kernels, but those aren’t good to use on skin–the milling process doesn’t produce uniform particles and the pointy bits tend to compromise the barrier skin provides with very small tears.
I completely agree that plastic isn’t necessary for good soap, I just like it. I would definitely buy soap made with ecologically responsible plantstic at least once.
