Our Story
We are three ordinary men on an extraordinary mission: to revolutionise the body wash industry. Frustrated with plastic waste, toxic ingredients, and uninspiring brands, we decided to create something entirely new. Our journey began with the realisation that traditional liquid body wash and soap bars just weren't cutting it. You can't travel with a wet soap bar, liquid body wash bottles leak in your bag, and a staggering 1.4 billion plastic body wash bottles are discarded every year.
Determined to make a change, we envisioned a sustainable alternative to liquid body wash and soap bars. We wanted to create a refillable body wash applicator with a hard body wash bar that was toxin-free and designed to match a man's skin pH of 5.5. After 12 months of rigorous research, design, and development, we are proud to introduce Bob—the world’s first hard refillable body wash bar and applicator.
Thank you so much for taking the time to learn more about Bob and we hope you will soap-port us by pre-ordering Bob today.
With love from three ordinary men,
Mike, Will & Max
We love showering, but some things really frustrated us
So we decided to do something about it
What matters to us
pH-ocus
Bob is meticulously formulated with a pH of 5.5, the optimal level for a man to maintain healthy skin. This balance ensures that Bob is gentle on your skin, preserving its natural oils and preventing irritation. By aligning with your skin’s natural pH, Bob promotes a healthier, more resilient skin barrier, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Experience a shower that not only cleanses but also nourishes your skin with every use.
Reduce Waste
Bob is committed to reducing waste and promoting sustainability. Our innovative refill system eliminates the need for single-use plastic bottles, significantly cutting down on plastic waste. By choosing Bob, you’re making a conscious decision to support a greener planet. Each refillable body wash bar lasts longer than traditional liquid soaps, ensuring you not only reduce waste but also enjoy cost-effective hygiene solutions. Join us in our mission to revolutionise the body wash industry.
Toxin-Free
Your health and safety are our top priorities. Bob is completely toxin-free, crafted without harmful chemicals or synthetic additives. Our body wash bars are made from skin-loving ingredients that provide a pure and effective clean. Free from parabens, sulphates, and artificial fragrances, Bob ensures that your skin is treated with the utmost care. Trust in Bob to deliver a safe, rejuvenating shower experience that leaves your skin feeling fresh and revitalised.
Biodegradable
Bob’s commitment to the environment extends beyond reducing plastic waste; with our 95% biodegradable Bob bar formulation. Each body wash bar breaks down naturally, minimising its impact on the planet. This eco-friendly approach ensures that you can enjoy a luxurious shower experience while contributing to the well-being of our ecosystems. Choose Bob for a body wash that’s as kind to the earth as it is to your skin, embracing sustainability without compromising on quality.
Who we are
Shower Lovers
Behind the shower curtain we are three ordinary men who believe that a shower is a man's best friend. Day or night, we believe that a shower is a place for men to celebrate, to relax, to reflect, and to cry.
But we felt that our showers were being neglected. Poor ingredients, a lack of innovation, and no sustainable solution to plastic body wash bottles were just some of the reasons which inspired us to revolutionise the body wash industry, and launch the world’s first hard refillable body wash for men.
Entrepreneurs
Our founding team is made up of experienced and successful entrepreneurs and like any good founding team, they find amazing advisors to come on the journey with them.
Our soap-porters (like what we did there) are ex Unilever, P&G, Body Shop, Mous, HUEL, and ASOS and they bring a wealth of experience behind the shower curtain.
We have a long way to go but are committed to revolutionising the body wash industry.
Doers
We get sh*%t done.
We raised our first investment, we found our product design agency, Beta, and we developed the world’s first hard refillable body wash, for men.
Everything you see from our website, to our products, from our packaging, to our social media posts are all designed in house. We care about every little detail, from the source of our ingredients, to the recycling of our packaging, it’s the 1%'s that make all the difference.
