Welcome to this week's Soap A Week (SAW) thread.
Sun 17 January - Sat 23 January.
From tomorrow (Sunday 17th), we'll have a new soap of the week, and this week we have a soap by a British artisan soap maker who happens to also be a forum member, @SoapAlchemist aka Sharon, and I'm really looking forward to it.
This week's soap is: ...Nanny's Silly Soap (all types and scents).
Whether you have a hard soap, soft soap, or original, signature or olive oil recipe, and whatever the scent, as long as it's Nanny's you can take part in this SAW.
A bit about the company:

From the website:
It'll be interesting to hear everyone's opinions and experiences with using these soaps. Personally, Nanny's soaps shot to the top of my shopping list after I tried some thanks to a soap PIF. I tried the soft soap, Moroccan Sands, and it felt like a very high quality soap, resulting in a fantastic shave with a really good post shave feel. I'm eager to get stuck into the two tins I recently bought and get to know this soap better.
I'll be having my first Nanny's SAW shave tomorrow with a 1912 and I can't wait.
So, if you're reading this and have a tin or puck of Nanny's soap in your collection, share your thoughts, break it out this week and tell everyone how you get on.
Until then... good shaves!

From the website:
"Nanny's Silly Soap Company is a small artisan business which specialises in soap made without harsh synthetic ingredients."
"No synthetic foaming agents, preservatives or chelators are used in any of my soaps."
"My aim is to make products that are as natural as possible, and as ethical as feasible.
No synthetic scents, colours, chelators, detergents etc. are used. Ingredients are listed on the website, enabling my customers to make informed choices about what they put on their skin.
All Palm oil used is sustainably sourced in Columbia, and is also organic.
Nearly all my products are suitable for vegans; all stearic acid and glycerine used is of vegetable origin. In a few products I use beeswax, goat milk or silk."
