Important FAQs

I am a shower poof person, can I still use Bars by Becca's bars?

Yes!  Don't fret poof people!  You can simply lather up the bar on your poof and happily bathe.

How long can I keep/store my soaps?

Commercial soap usually lasts 2 to 3 years, where Bars by Becca's soaps will mostly only last one year (or less). The reason for commercial ones lasting longer is simply due to the fact that they have preservatives (usually formaldehyde) in them, so they can last much longer.

Handmade soaps are different, they are made with oils and lye and typically have no exact shelf life.  Please note that my soaps are made to be used.  You don't want to stockpile the soap.  Bars with food ingredients (i.e. cucumber, pumpkin, etc...) will have a shorter shelf life.  If you notice a soap looks different than it did when you received it, please reach out, I've got you!!

My bars don't last.  Am I doing something wrong?

Maybe.  My bars are all natural and made with oils picked because of their awesomeness.  You can help remedy this and hopefully prolong the life of your bar by purchasing a draining soap dish.  I have one that suctions to the wall of the shower.  Also, make sure that your soap isn't in direct line of the shower spray.  

The bars are too big for my hands.  What can I do?

This is an easy solution.  Take a butter knife and cut the bar in half, thirds or even quarters (this is a great way to take your soap on vacation).  

Why is shipping $6.75 for 1 to 8 bars and how do you ship?  

The soap is heavy so the Priority Flat Rate envelopes from USPS have been the most cost effective way to send soaps.  They are also quick and are delivered in 2 to 3 days depending on location.  When not using flat rate products, shipping costs are calculated by weight and distance.  Shipping one bar of soap to a client in the same town is just below the price of a flat rate envelope that can hold up to 8 bars.  Orders are processed no longer than 3 business days from the date the order is received (unless otherwise noted).  Although, most orders are processed the next day and some the same day.  Any orders received Friday-Sunday will be shipped out the following Monday or Tuesday.

What is your return policy?

Because of the nature of the product, the soap may not be returned.  However, every effort will be made to ensure your happiness with your order.  If you have any questions or issues please feel free to email sales@barsbybecca.com.
