One Soap Ingredient Too Many

Before we all went our separate summer ways Darrell asked me to "keep an eye out" for anything new in the way of authentic Greek beauty care like what they have in the supermarkets and gift shops.

Every year he always returns with half a suitcase full of something "innovative" that he believes/hopes will help stop or at least slow down the pruning process as he calls it.
You name it, he's tried it, from just plain olive oil on it's own, to olive oil with lavender, pomegranate, donkey milk, lemon myrtle & may chang, eucalyptus and peppermint, organic and inorganic ............ to name just a few ............
 ........... believe me, they've all been on his face, feet, bum and all the bits in between at sometime or another.  What is he like?  -
Yes, quick change here for the observant ones among you, Mr D in particular, a case of new day, new shop, clean t-shirt ........ AND new soap ....... to help complete my story  ...........
However, this is a soap tooooooooooooooooooo far and will not be duly purchased. Darrell must never know of its existence.  If he ever wants to cover his face (or other regions) with snail slime there are more than enough snails crawling up the outside walls of The Towers to do that, pickled in olive oil or not!

Snail soap? No thanks. Palmolive will do just fine.

May Chang? Sounds like someone's name.

Oh my goodness - hope no snails were harmed in the process of making this soap! JantheFan x
