TURIN, Italy, Feb. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Colibry launched on February 8th a second Kickstarter product called Handso – a soap holder that can be used as a sponge. No more slippery bars of soap and worn sponges: insert solid soap, pass it on the skin and enjoy the pleasure of soft lather.
Each Handso kit includes a Handso and an Italian artisanal natural soap, as well as a magnetic wall mount and lanyard to complete the package. There are two colors already available - cold Aqua Green and warm Purple plum, additional color options will be available soon as a stretch goal.
Handso encourages the use of natural organic soap.
The adoption of soaps such as natural organic cosmetics is critical. Organic products use unique artisanal formulas with natural ingredients to drastically reduce the use of water in the formulation. Unfortunately, the soap bar gets a bad rep: it stays puddled in the soap dish, drying to the skin, unfriendly shape to leather on the body, and unhygienic to share. Handso aims to create a user-friendly experience with soap. With a few shakes in Handso, through the innovative foam generator, solid soaps or shampoo bars can easily be activated with a minimal amount of water (100ml to soap a whole body!).
Handso is simple, compact when stored, and easy to transport.
With a capacity of 100 ml and only 8 cm in diameter, Handso is easy to handle and carry on the go. With an accompanying magnetic wall mount and lanyard, Handso is designed to hang in the shower and can fit in one's gym bag or in the last remaining free space in a traveler's luggage, also eliminating the need of decanting liquids into 100ml bottles.
Handso is eco-friendly
There are many solutions to fight against plastic pollution that people can participate in today, like reducing the use of single-use plastics in our daily routine. If each of us used refillable containers instead of disposable ones, we would save the planet more than 1000 plastic bottles in a lifetime. Going even further, a simple bar of soap is equivalent to 250ml of liquid shower gel, eliminating even the packaging of the refill packages. By making a switch from bottled shampoos and body wash to using Handso, one can help reduce the environmental impact of transport of those products, reduce the ecological impact of introducing chemicals into the water cycle, and reduce the ecological impact of packaging (liquid soaps need plastic bottles while solid soaps can be packaged with recycled and recyclable paper).
Handso is revolutionary because it is:
- Adaptable - it works with classic soaps and solid cosmetics. The lathering principle works with all kinds of soap.
- Clean - the soap does not get in direct contact with the skin, nor with the external environment.
- Comfortable - Its soft silicone bristles massage and regenerates your skin spreading the lather all over your body.
- Leak-proof - You can take it with you on a trip or to the gym without worrying about water leaks.
- Durable - It can last more than 10 years, reduces water and plastic consumption.
