AESOP Resurrection - $40. For. Soap. UGH.

Oh Aesop... why art thou so expensive? Today let's talk about their most popular product - the Resurrection Aromatique Hand Wash, aka their hand soap. One of my favorite things... but worth the money?

🤣 I love the emotional struggle he expresses, he is all of us. I use about half a pump and it’s enough, and enjoy the luscious, luscious washing. It truly is a mini moment of mindfulness.

Hi Mark. Yes agree. $40 (£27) is soo expensive and this has been much hyped & has spawned many imitators with the same type of bottle. However, I got fed up with my Pound Shop (Dollar Tree) anti bac hand soap destroying my hands. So I caved today. It smells gorgeous & left my hands noticeably fresh, clean & subtly scented. It looks fabulous in my bathroom, making it look like a boutique hotel. So is it worth it? I say, yes!

It gives you joy. It gives zing. It doesn’t sound you have any regrets if you use this soap. You might even regret not buying it. Well done on living life to the fullest.

I totally agree with your video. I just splurged on this item, hand balm and Parsley Seed Cleanser. I've been eyeing them for YEARS but never bought it because I couldn't afford it, now that I'm earning a bit more I said why not, just this once! Plus I don't have kids, haha, so why not?! Their packaging is crazy aesthetically pleasing though.

I just bought a body balm because I love the nutty sandalwood scent in it. Quite expensive and there are lower cost products which can deliver the same or even better effect but I just dig the scent and aesthetics. It's all my psychological drug.

You should fill your life with what you love! If you’re using it and you’re really enjoying the simple process of washing your hands, I find that quite grounding. For that alone, you can justify the price tag

Guilty as charge, i bought it only to make my bathroom look nicer. Lol!

[Mshummingbird]

Love your personality! Totally subscribed. Btw I think that if there is something, as you said “mundane”, as simple as a hand soap that brings you joy, totally go for it. I find soap usually lasts a while anyway. Life is too short to not enjoy the little things such as washing our hands. Plus I find that when you enjoy soap so much you spend a little longer scrubbing....which we def need to do these days.

You spoke my mind! It’s a dilemma that consumes us. Too expensive, too delicious. It’s hard.

Aesop reminded me what good design looks like!
I treat it like an expensive gym membership, their stuff also works on my skin which is difficult!

I LOVE this review so much. You have expressed my inner thoughts so perfectly whenever I walk into an Aesop store.

A bit late to the party, but Element Brooklyn has a dupe for this (mandarin hand soap refill) you should try out at a much reduced price.

I purchased it and love it. Makes me feel good. wash my hands so much in covid that I think it's worth it. I got the hand balm as well.

[catherinex]

i saw some many beauty bloggers recommend this product... but you are the one sold me on this 😂 😂 😂

[nicolet]

I tried this at sightglass coffee and fell in love. The smell is so soothing

[oliviamaisy]

I only brought Aesop for the bottles, I will most likely refill with cheaper but similar products. The design is stunning and makes me happy looking at them in my interior haha

[Aryan-evbs]

I buy this soap once a year and when it runs out I just get cheap soap 😂

[matthewcormier]

I'm definitely getting This hand soap

[incarnateTheGreat]

I buy this and it lasts me a year or so. It's in my en suite bathroom, so only I use it. The one with the pummice stones in is the best. I agree with you that it's a nice-to-have, but if you're going to select specific Aesop items to buy, this would be at the top.

I also had a hand lotion that I loved. I even got the Poo Drops and they work. Haha

Hello from New York great honest review I just also heard that L’Oreal is buying Aesop?
