From solid bar soaps that must be dried after use and before storing to liquids that risk leaking or falling victim to TSA limits, traveling with a cleanser has always been more of a hassle than it should be, but Fomin is determined to solve this pain point with Travel Soap Sheets.
These paper-thin, ultra-compact soaps lather instantly with water and provide a plastic-free alternative to liquid soap that's gentle and luxurious-feeling. The vegan-friendly biodegradable paper soap sheets are ideal for not only air travel, but also outdoor activities like hiking and camping. In a pocket-sized pack, Fomin packs 100 sheets in fragrant varieties like Tea Tree Oil, Lavender, and Orange. Alternatively, for consumers who need or prefer unscented options, Fomin offers Fragrance-Free Travel Soap Sheets.
