Allergy to Disney soap?

[cruisinthecarribean]

I have been having a problem with a red rash on my arms and legs. I ran out of the Caress soap I usually use, so I grabbed a bar of Disney bath soap. I just figured out it could be causing my rash. Anyone else had this problem?

yep, the soap disney uses is ivory soap, very harsh stuff imo.

Can't use it, it turns my skin RED!

Wow thank you for that reminder- my ds is allergic to Ivory Soap so this is something I need to pack for him(his cetaphil soap!) Sorry you are itchy but you just saved an 11 year old from a very uncomfortable vacation! so thank you

It is NOT Ivory soap. It doesn't float.

I have very sensitive skin and when we went to disney several years ago I used the Disney soap to wash my face and the next day my eyes were so puffy that I had to go to a walk in clinic to get something to make the swelling go down. I looked horrible!!! I wasn't sure if it was a reaction to the soap or if it was something they use to wash the washcloths (bleach or some kind of strong detergent). Anyway, I no longer use their soap and I bring my own washcloths!

I am very sensitive to soaps. I always bring my own bar of soap no matter where we go. Also, I like to have a big bar in the bath, not those little ones.

When I break out from soap use, I get in a tub full of luke warm / cool water w/ vinegar. The vinegar gets rid of any residue from the soap. Be careful and don't get it too close to your eyes.

I hope you feel better soon.

Sorry about your rash.
The Mickey soaps are not Ivory.

I remembered reading this on another thread so I found the post and copied it. I hope the OP does not mind.

For a time, several years ago, the All-Star resorts used wall mounted soap and shampoo dispensers. This proved to be unpopular with guests. They once again now supply the little Mickey soaps and shampoo bottles.

I never trust any hotel soaps and always take my own, I'm allergic to perfumes. I can use unscented soaps mostly Olay.

Yep..just came back from a long weekend and I am all broke out from the mickey soap..just as you described. I hate that stuff. I sure wish disney would step up to the plate and offer quality bathroom ammenities like other resorts.

Even if it's not official Ivory, it sure acts, feels & smells like it. I can't use it, too harsh. The Mickey Wrap is cute, but the contents are pretty nasty.
