They will last 3-5 days. If you use colored soap, you do not need to add any soap coloring. Our soap already had a pink color and a watermelon scent.
GUMMY SOAP – HOW TO USE
These smell great and feel like gelatin jigglers. It’s so much fun! We live in an area that is humid and warm, so we keep ours in a sealed container in the fridge. They had fun taking one of these little soaps to the shower every day. It does not last as long as regular bar soap, and it dissolves very quickly. It will dissolve in the water of a bath after about a minute and become a bubble bath. The bubbles will last up to 5 days before they dry out in the fridge.
