Amish Farms Quality Handmade Soap Variety Bag 5 soaps

I ordered this soap because of the natural claims and natural ingredients and after getting it, I became suspicious of the "Amish" claim. Clearly many companies use the "Amish" claim, which would denote quality, while having nothing to do with the "Amish". Because of the clear lack of quality and debris in one of the bars, I became suspicious that this was yet another false claim of being made by "Amish".I buy Organic Pure Unrefined GHANA African Black soap, buy it in 10 lb blocks and getting debris in the soap is normal. They will even tell you why and what the debris are. There is no reason for anyone making soap in modern United States to have debris in the soap.Also, they claim to use " natural wildflower scent " , once you smell this, you can tell it's not natural. The scent is VERY strong, which is not the norm when using " natural wildflower scent " or any natural product for scent. It smells like dove soap.A quick look at the website and you'll see that there is no address for this company on their site. No address on the soap bag and no list of ingredients to substantiate their natural claims. A review on their website says it's an old farm with some metal buildings, but the address on their Facebook pages shows a warehouse that is for rent, next to a detailing shop. Where this soap is being made is a mystery and I doubt the made in America claim at this point. The original owner of the company does live on a a farm with a few metal buildings, but he's no longer the owner.The founder of the company is does not to appear to be Amish. He sold the company to unknown parties for an undisclosed amount of money. Where it's currently made or what it contains is unknown.The funny part is the Company's website links you to the Facebook page, their Facebook page links to a completely different Amish company.UPDATE: Turns out the soap is loaded with debris. I'm also convinced that a good portion of this soap is made from recycled soap. As I found unmixed white soap in the bar.I found an address for the company under a label. The address does not exist according to UPSP. Seems like a marketing ploy to make it seem like its made by Amish people. The owner of the company also owns a company that does recycling of goods, in fact he was sued for misusing recycled goods.STAY FAR , FAR AWAY FROM THIS SOAP.

We’ve purchased this soap before and love the huge bars. They smell good and last quite long. However, our most recent experience has not been as good. There are tiny metal shards embedded within the soap.

This "natural" soap came with chunks of an unidentified brown substance in at least two of the blue bars. So far, I haven't found anything in the pink bars. The scent smells very clean which I love, but it does not smell natural. I am skeptical of the actual ingredients and disappointed I missed my return window before discovering unidentified objects.

I have nightmarish combination skin - it's super oily, I wash it, then it gets super dry and flaky! "Moisturizing" store-brand soaps almost never work (Dove, Jergens, etc). The price of the Amish Farms soaps is phenomenal - better than store bought, and they are a good size and you get five of them. They are obviously handmade (it's important to me to support small businesses), and to also use as close to natural products as possible. This one fit the bill. The smell is pretty good. It almost smells citrus-y, in a way. It lathers nicely as well. It lasts slightly longer than a store-bought bar (I shower daily, occassionally twice if the need calls for it) - each bar lasted me about 3-4 weeks, would probably last longer if I kept it in a spot that doesn't get wet constantly.There are only two gripes I have: I received what is obviously not a variety pack, but one of the same type of bar. I would have preferred it to be an actual variety, but this is fine. The second gripe is though it does moisturize to some degree, I still find my skin drying out. Mind you though, it doesn't dry out NEARLY as much if I would have used store bought soap! I still need to use a moisturizer afterward.Would I buy it again? Absolutely, it's a great product, though I think I'll still continue my search for the one soap that doesn't dry out my skin at all, IF that's even possible (' I know you're out there somewhere~ ') but regardless I would highly recommend this soap. It's a GREAT value!

The first bar I used was great. But the second bar had dirt and scrap in it. I first noticed occasional black specks. They were grainy like sand but too few to be for exfoliating. Next a soft, yellow plastic bit emerged. Finally a short thread was revealed. I threw out the bar and started another. So far, so good.The pink bars are OK. The bar with debris is white.
