Since natural soaps are made primarily of oils and butters, they do not fare well when sitting in water. This is why it's important to use a soap tray or a Dapper Yankee Soap Clutch to allow water to move away from your soap and allow it to dry between uses.

There is a certain level of care that needs to be taken with wooden soap trays. It is recommended that you clean your soap tray weekly and allow it time to dry.

Leaving a wooden soap tray in standing water can cause the tray to become waterlogged. When this happens, water is absorbed into the wood and then that moisture is transferred to your soap.

When a wooden soap tray is waterlogged you have two options: 1) allow the soap tray to completely dry out to the point where you no longer feel any moisture, or 2) replace it with a new one.

The new Dapper Yankee Soap Saver is curved to help prevent the tray from sitting in water and it is less likely to become waterlogged.

In addition to using a Dapper Yankee Soap Saver and/or a Dapper Yankee Soap Clutch, you can cut the soap bar in half and only use half at a time.
