As someone who deals with numerous a lot of sensitivities to various allergens and products, I am careful of what I bring into my home. So I love using and creating clean products for my whole family to use in our home.
I have found that with Ivory, you can have peace of mind that your family is getting a pure and gentle clean that is free of any harmful ingredients. Ivory is a family brand with a long heritage of trustworthy personal cleansing products–they haven’t changed the formula for their Ivory Original Bar Soap since 1879!
Families have trusted Ivory for generations because:
- Ivory’s products are 99.44% pure and clean.
- The bar soap is so pure it floats—just like your favorite rubber ducky!
- Ivory’s products are free of dyes and heavy perfumes.
- Ivory’s products are proudly made in the U.S.A. and always have been.
- Ivory’s products provide a pure and effective clean for the entire family.
- Ivory bar soap is recommended by 4 out of 5 moms.
- These products are paraben-free and free of dyes.
- These products are pH balanced.
Not only do we use Ivory products for everyday use, I like to use the Ivory Aloe Body Wash to make some bubbling bath salts. These are great for a nice exfoliating shower or bath when you crave a little pampering after a long and busy day.
Body Wash Bubbling Bath Salts
1 1/4 cups rock salt
¾ cup epsom salts
1/4 cup Ivory Aloe Body Wash
2 drops essential oil (I used lavender)
2 drops food coloring (optional)
Directions:
- Place the rock salts and epsom salts in a bowl.
- Add Ivory Aloe Body Wash.
- Add two drops of lavender essential oil (if wanted).
- Add two drops of food coloring (if wanted).
- Stir well.
- Spread out on a cookie sheet to dry for 24 hours. Stir every few hours to make sure it dries evenly and doesn’t stick together.
- Break up any large chunks and pour into a mason jar.
- Use ¼ cup in warm bath.
I really think you will love using them in your home with your own family. And because I love to share, I created some labels that you can print for your own personal use. These also make a great gift to a new mother, friend or family member who could also use a little pampering!

Ivory doesn’t float because it is pure. It used to sink like any other soap. Then a worker forgot about a batch in a mixing tub and a huge amount of air was mixed in. Proctor and Gamble packaged the soap and sent it out and was surprised when they started getting requests for “that soap that floats.”
Great info. Thanks for sharing!
No, that was just a cover story they tried to get by with for many years. It had air deliberately whipped into it to copy another floating soap that’d become popular.
And the formula has changed over time. During World War 2 they had to reduce the amount of coconut soap in it, from availability. After the war they kept it that way for several years, then restored the coconut content, advertising it as a boost in suds, when all they were doing was going back to how it’d been.
Robert- Interesting. I didn’t know about this either. Thanks for sharing.
What a great post!
I have been following your site for a couple of years and look forward to reading your posts every day.
Would it be possible if you could do a tutorial for face masks or hair masks with natural ingredients? Thank you.
Thank you for following along! I will look into this. Great ideas!
Thanks so much for following along! That’s a great idea! I will add it to my project list! Thanks Kitty!
Hi! I live in China. Can’t get “Ivory” do you know will anythign else work???
Jessica-any bar of soap should work well. Thanks.
I am a new subscriber and I am thoroughly enjoying your web site! Several years ago, in a local spa, I discovered they used scented salt scrub with a little wooden spoon, instead of soap for hand washing. I loved the idea and the hw soft my hands felt after using it. I have been using purchased salt scrub for hand washing in my home bathroom since then. I would like to make some and wonder if you might have a recipe or two to post? My favorite scent is lemon (or any citrus). Thanks!!
Mary- Mine too. Thanks so much!
