How many Soaps did you buy because Artwork.

None, or wait, maybe an Arko stick.

I definitely bought Arko for the artwork. The label screamed masculine tradition, and at a price I would pay for a sample.

I think people are missing the fact that if they avoided anything because of graphic design, and went and bought something else with a design they preferred, whether it was a bad craft show label or MdC, the designs still guided their decision.

Certainly if you don't have anything with a big artistic expression among your twenty soaps, then you were guided by artwork and design.

A few. But the only ones that I can remember at the moment:

Great minds think alike! See my post #14 above in this thread.

These are very fine art containe4s and worth buying even if you never use the soaps. Very nice indeed.

I would never buy a soap off of artwork alone. I'd make sure it's a quality product first and consider nice labeling a bonus. With that in mind, how can you not love this label?

I would. I plan to put a few Stirling samples inside, but this is the container my little brother will receive from me this Xmas. I'll keep the soap for myself. I really like the k2e base, and it's hard to imagine an aquatic being anything but inoffensive.

Here's one that should entice a few ...

Only one bought for the label. RazoRock Plague Doctor bought at the start of covid, and it performed so well it's a favorite with any brush. Easy to lather and a good performer. A light soapy scent may be its only downside for those favor scent, but fine for those of us who don't. I didn't like the aftershave and gave that bottle to my barber for display. Looks like the soap is now half price. I have several tubs on hand, but may have to order more at that price.

I didn't buy this, I was given it, but the artwork is pretty nice. Not as nice as the soap, though...
