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

🤣 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.

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!

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

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

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!

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.

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.

Me, watching this after experiencing Aesop soap for the first time at a fancy SF restaurant 👀

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

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

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

great review.! 😂 i super love aesop.! and btw i love the design of your house looks cozy and neat and your aesop hand wash blends in your house 😝 👍🏻

Love your Living space, looks really cozy !

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.

I just bought this too. First time visiting an Aesop store and I left the store w/ my wallet a bit thinner. But I do love the product and the smell.

Stumbled upon this video, really like your videos. Keep up the good work

Everyone here cause of D’Angelo omg. We stan a powerful queen.

We are paying for the look, the amazing smell and the bougie experience for $40.... and like what you said the memory😊 I enjoyed your video, thanks for sharing

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?

Nailed the reflections ive had aswell! yet i bought it and dont regret it for a second

Finally someone said it! I didn't know I can LOVE a hand wash until I used this one at a nice restaurant in Tokyo. Now I am constantly trying out other ridiculous $30+ hand wash(thanks to IG ads). It's definitely something that you really like but somehow feel ashamed to tell others. 😂

Awesome channel and aesthetic man!

Its on the way!excited to see it on my counter lol

I'm definitely getting This hand soap

we have arrived

I woud say yes, it is worth it. Have you tried Aesop's fragrances yet? Would love to see you do more videos about their other products :)

I recommend you wholeelise she made a dupe of aesop resurrection cost is 6$ only with a same scent and much milder surfactant used but she used sodium lurayt sulfate too but she said sodium lurayt sulfate is harsh and irratable on skin

Perfect review. Product is amazing, but not worth it, but I keep buying it.

Dude! I love this guy! Subbed!!

Everybody who finds out how much I spend on soap thinks I am crazy, but I must say that I love paying a premium for high quality functional basics like soap. I mean how often do you wash your hands? I guess at least 5-6 times a day while being at home. If just $40 can make every time a little experience for a couple of months, this is money well spent.

Try the Reverence one.. it has got tiny exfoliant and smells amazing (earthy and woody)

It’s one of my favorite things too! Buy it for yourself!

Great take on it. I felt the same way seeing it at restaurants 😂

I recently saw a video of a lady recreating it and her total was about $6. Maybe you could try that and save a lot more in the long run.

Same bro. Same. I got the travel sizes so I wouldn't feel too bad about buying stuff from Aesop. Still makes me want to get the full size. T___T

The Apple of skincare

Would there be anything in the ingredients that drive the cost up or does it appear that the company caters to a higher class shopper?

Who's here from you-know-where?

Cost isn't merely a function of utility. For Aesop (and other similarly premium products) consider the following: Is Aesop using authentic aromatic materials (natural isolates, essential oils, absolutes, c02 extractions, etc.) or are they using synthetic materials? How much is a real essential oil compared to a synthetic variant? Beyond the price of the good itself, what is the process for obtaining a high quality natural aromatic material, vs its synthetic equivalent? How much time, money and resourcing did it take for Aesop et al to become specialized in using these materials thereby creating a core competency? How much does it cost to retain these skilled resources who make these products for Aesop? Is there competition for said resources which creates a premium? I'm doing research on this segment, and I'm truly perplexed at how today's consumers are completely lost on the material cost of goods and their role in creating IP worth buying. I'm no huge fan, but one walks into a luxury hotel, uses an Aesop product and all of a sudden, it's impossible to forget this luxury hotel, which somehow helps justifies its cost, along with other variables, which create an immediate association to my time at the luxury hotel, which is then forever etched in my mind as a pleasurable experience that I need to do again, and again, and maybe for the rest of my life if I can afford it. How much does this effect impact cost? Well, IMO Aesop is underpriced, all things considered. I hope their margins are as wide as the red sea.

Love love love aesop! Just so you know, it’s pronounced e-sop. The “a” is silent. :)

it’s true it makes a mundane task extra special hahahaha

What i do is i buy cheap soap and place them next to these and only use them when I feel fancy. But when i have friends over I just hide them outright lol

Its expensive but it’s honestly lasted a good year on my counter. You don’t need much to get a good amount of suds.

38 dollars for the bottle, 2 dollars for the soap..

i leave this out for the guests to impress them he he

Nothing worth having comes easy I guess.. 🥺 Who am I kidding $40 is insane but I bought it and I’m ashamed. I stayed in a snazzy Air B&B and they had this for all the products and yeah, I bought em.

I graduated to their body wash. Help! hahaha. It just smells so effing good.

Love your channel! Do you have a public Instagram account for us to follow?

I truly don't understand why they make a product in a glass bottle and then not make refills available

Who's here because of D'Angelo?

I use this product to wash my Rolex.............I think it's worth it now..............LOL......

But their packaging is like those extra virgin coconut oil on the shelves....pure glass.

I went into Aesop and spent 300£ on shower/shampoo/hand soap/ moisturiser etc.. altogether 6 products. I did this because I just bought a new lux apartment and I believe it’s fitting. Love the product and I stand by design and productivity at its best. I’m a graphic designer and chef so I understand the price tag. I wish it was less but you have to pay to play for quality. The product speaks for itself. If you have the money, buy. If you can’t and need to second check your pockets then stay away. Like all things high end. I’m not rich by all means, but I’ve worked hard for it and I’ve had enough of saying no. Treat yourself! I did contradict myself in this post, fuck it! 😂

Is the bottle glass or plastic? For that price it better be glass! Lol

Also it ruins you and you get disappointed whenever you go somewhere that has regular soap and not a luxury one like Aesop or le Labo lol

They have lost my support for selling out to Loreal and frankly $75 for an air freshener lol rediculous. And btw the soap retails for $50 now

malin goetz hand wash is a close second for me

these products are not for people who think 40$ is a lot of money. Quite the opposite!

Is it worth it? Let me work it. Put my thing down, flip it and reverse it.

I work at aesop and the Reverence soap is better I think.

No. It's over priced. It smells great but for the i can find something comparable for 1/3 price

its pronounced EE-SOP dude...

Why would some evil=worthless strangers bully some indifferent innocent stranger artist woman? I HATE EVIL ENVIOUS CREEPS.

Perhaps this Kwak also developed insomnia too as other Kwaks did after deliberately trying to make envied colleagues eat after 10PM from karma lol or did some angered other colleague created insomnia with manipulated psychiatric meds too by bribed South Korean Asian psychiatrists? Lol and puke they had been hated by brands more when they buy or own them as people need to avoid jinx Kwaks quacks Amys so hated never envied lol perhaps this Kwak too has a day revolving around thinking about food

The shop attendant gave me a free bottle 🥹

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
