Hydra has super cool stuff. It is a great store for random gifts when you don't know what else to get someone. I could spend hours looking at their cute, tongue-in-cheek, soaps that smell so much like…

Lots of people mention the cost of the products here as a slight deterrent. It can definitely get costly if you don't pay attention to what you're doing but it's well worth it, really; the prices on…

I originally bought my first 2 bars of soap here because my roommate had given me a gift certificate for my bday. I used both and was moderately satisfied with both my 'Ladybug' and my "Fig & Citron"…

Fun stuff, but yes, a little pricey for the soaps. I love the yo mama lotion, it's great for dry skin and it's not perfumey at all.

I am pretty sure I will always find the San Francisco neighborhood soaps fun and cheeky, even though there's only like 4 and somewhat inaccurate depictions. Bonus star TO MYSELF because I apparently…

My god, every time I walk out of Hydra I feel like going through a detox from the abundance of smells and textures in there and make myself as dirty as possible. I'm not a soap or bath person myself;…

Places like this always make me happy, but then again, I'm a total product whore. Adorable little soaps in scents named after the SF neighborhoods and in every other scent imaginable. Also lotions,…
