Identifying zero waste bars

[FlorayG]

I got some bar shampoo and conditioner for Christmas and I've tried it and like it but already can see a problem with it - how am I supposed to tell which is the soap, which the shampoo and which the conditioner bar?

I don't want to keep them in sealed containers because they go mushy and also those things are difficult to open when you're wet and soapy

Any suggestions? If you use these how do you differentiate them? They are currently all different shapes but with use this will disappear

They actually keep their shape all the way down so I have never had a problem.
Also on the shelf in the shower I have Shampoo bar, conditioner bar and then soap bar and always keep them in that order

Could I ask where they’re from - I’ve ummed and arred about trying them for ages!

I buy mine from plastic free zone on Etsy. I have tried different ones but these are my favourite conditioner bars

Lush have some, they also sell a cork tub which I think absorbs the water so might stop them going mushy

Mine are different colours. And the conditioner bar looks different.

The order you put them in might be a way to differentiate?

I buy from Yorkshire soap company.

wee bit of water on top and start to rub. Shampoo bar will foam, conditioner shouldn't.

Oh sorry reread - I thought you didn't currently know which was which. I'd assume fragrance would be an indicator. I've had them from Lush previously and used the shampoo tins - only becomes an issue if you don't use them for a prolonged period of time.
I also like putting the idea of putting them in a particular order too.
