Hand soap shaped like baby hands

I very much like these cakes of soap in the shape of immature humans' hands. A bag of them will set you back $20.

Creep everyone out in your guest bathroom. Each soap is shaped like a little hand! The soaps range from 1/2” to 2”.

You will get at least 10 hands (at least/about 100 grams of soap). This soap is made from goat’s milk and vegetable glycerin with a light scent. Your hands come packaged in a pretty bag…all ready for gifting to a friend with dirty paws!

Eww. Like a pedophile's dream: "Give me baby hands to touch me!"

Something disturbing there is about that. The hands bear a certain verisimilitude to real hands. I think the default impression that the brain has when it lights upon a disemodied hand or limb is to automatically register the idea that it has been severed.

This is almost unbearably awesome.

Comments 2,3,4 -- Yikes. I'm glad my mind didn't take those sad trajectories when I saw these soaps.

Holy cow! Thanks Boing Boing! We have sold out, but we are getting more soap in soon!

Honestly, I find them a little scary too. Like all these creepy crawly hands reaching for you!

But if you're a little kid, needing to wash your hands, how strange and yet comprehensible.

...There's a lot of pervs out there who are just going to go apeshit over this one. It'll be their equivalent of a phallic soap-on-a-rope!

For all the people immediately jumping to conclusions about pedophiles wanting this soap-- I'm not sure that's how it works. I'm a heterosexual female. If there is soap shaped like detached male hands, am I going to be automatically aroused by this?

That said, I think they're creepily cool.

You could always buy them from this etsy seller as well, although they appear to be low on stock too.
