Pears Soap Reviews

We used to use Pears soap always but now there are so many gorgeous smelling soaps available we lost interest in it a bit. I went through a phase of doing competitions in January and one of the few prizes I won was a Pears giftset, which sounds nice but it was actually very boring with just 2 bars of soap in it plus a Pears handwash and a hand ...  Read the complete review

Pears soap has been around for many years, yet it seems very contemporary, with its subtle fresh perfume which is unlike that of any other soap, its dark jewel-like colour and its stylish oval shape. It seems posh enough for the smartest bathroom, but I always associate it with the old advert, featuring a very dirty tramp, with the caption ...  Read the complete review

Memories are what make me buy this soap from time to time. Happy ones when I first met my husband in 1978; his mum always used this soap, and when I went to stay at his house I will always remember this sturdy chunk of nostalgia perched on the side of the bath in its little dish. My husband (boyfriend then) and I were separated for a while after ...  Read the complete review

I'm not sure if this counts as the same as the bar soap but the type I bought recently was the handwash in a bottle. I bought it because I have sensitive hands that can't really tolerate soap or a lot of the harsh handwashes on the market (even the ones that claim to be "sensitive"). I had read a review somewhere (sorry dooyoo but I ...  Read the complete review

A 125 g bar of Pears soap will cost you 95p and believe you me it is money well spent. Pears soap was first sold in 1789 by a Cornish gentleman called Andrew Pears who produced soap from a London factory. Somewhere around 1915 the company was taken over by Lever Brothers and Pears soap production was moved to the North West of England, but I have ...  Read the complete review

I adore Pears soap. It is really old-fashioned and wholesome! It has been around since the 18th century so you could say it has stood the test of time! My husband has sensitive skin and yet has no reaction to this soap. It is really mild and good for your skin. It doesn't moisturise it but it doesn't dry it out. It has a ...  Read the complete review

I always buy whatever soap is on offer at my local supermarket and a few weeks ago the offer was buy one get one free on Pears liquid hand wash soap. I was attracted to the classy bottle and thought it would look good in my bathroom. I have never used Pears soap before although have seen it advertised. Here’s how it shaped up- The ...  Read the complete review

Pears soap has got a lot of memories for me. I can remember it way back when I was a child. I only ever knew one person who used Pears soap. And that was my elderly Auntie. She always had a bar of Pears soap sitting by her kitchen sink. There was never a time when there wasn't a bar there. So, of course, I used to use this soap round hers. And ...  Read the complete review

Pears soap. No I was never Miss Pears , too much of a raggamuffin. I noticed an old pears soap advertisement and strongly remembered my mother occasionally buying this. I looked in Tesco and there is still pears soap available at the moment a 125g bar costs 65p it is usually 85p. So in for a bit of nostalgia and needing ...  Read the complete review
