I’ve spent way too long looking at soap dishes now. I looked at bamboo, ceramic, stainless steel, etc. So far, as soon as I find one that seems good, I read a review that turns me away.

I have eczema and sensitive skin, so I have to use sort of expensive specialty soaps. I’d love to find some soap trays/dishes that can prolong the life of the soap and withstand regular use/water exposure. They have to be mold and mildew resistant due to my allergies.

I’m open to various materials but prefer non-plastic. Thanks for any advice in advance!

These are made from corn and soy. They are awesome too

I was looking into things like that. I think I would possibly like to place one of those in a soap dish with the soap on top. Would this mean I don’t need drainage in the actual dish? I could just use any old ceramic dish base?

Yeah that should be fine

Get a copper soap dish it’s more antibacterial.

copper door handles and drawer knobs are actually really good for your health.

Does yours have drainage? Do you have a brand or link for me to check out?

Never had problems with my soapstone soap dish. I’ve had it almost ten years.

Thanks; I posted on mobile so I was having issues selecting the “request” flair, but I thought it was more fittiny. Thanks for the change, kind bot.

Glass butter dish

But wouldn’t it make the soap stay wet/soggy?

Liquid soap in a pump bottle.
