The SudStud helps users reduce their use of soap by 80% while improving cleanliness. The product was recently launched by Silli Co, a Vancouver-based company, looking to improve the quotidian life of consumers.

The SudStud allows for a deeper clean by [removing dead skin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exfoliating-body-washes). It's made with high-quality silicone that's anti-bacterial to eliminate germs. To use, consumers just insert any [standard soap bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gardeners-soap-bar) into the silicon applicator and add water. It can also be used with [liquid body wash](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foaming-body-wash). The applicator produces 250 percent more suds than traditional sap and requires less friction. The SudStud has an exfoliated side and a side for sensitive skin. The applicator keeps the soap bar inside and can expand to twice its size. Moreover, the bar keeps a reservoir of soap inside longer than standard bars of soap. This progressive soap applicator will revolutionize the way consumers clean.
