My Two-Minute Things series is all about quick wins—simple habits, small purchases, or bite-sized lessons that make your day (and life) easier. And yes, you can read them in two minutes or less.
Now, are you a bar soap person? Because I am. I love Drunk Elephant’s Pekee Bar —ever since I interviewed the brand’s founder, Tiffany Masterson, in her Houston home. She shared her struggles with skin issues and how this cult-favorite bar came to life. If you suffer from dermatitis or adult acne I also recommend this black clay soap.
But here’s what I don’t love: every soap dish I’ve ever tried. They trap water, get slimy, and these natural wood vented ones build up soap residue over time.
Enter this $10 magnetic soap holder. It’s brilliant. No soap dish, no mess. Just stick the small metal holder to your shower wall, press the magnetic grabber into the back of your soap, and—boom—your bar soap floats in mid-air. No more soggy, melting bars. This is one of the best Amazon finds EVER.
My only complaint? I only wish they made this magic soap holder in black. It does come in a really cool wood version though. Or you can find this black wood one on Etsy. However, the Etsy version glues to the wall, while the Amazon metal version is primed with a strong adhesive which is easily removed.
So go ahead—get it, try it, and let me know what you think. I’ll never go back to a regular soap dish.
