Don't have enough time for coffee AND a shower in the morning? Not to worry. ThinkGeek brings you your caffeine on the outside with Shower Shock Soap.
The vegetable-based glycerine soap contains about 200 milligrams of caffeine per serving, the functional equivalent of two cups of coffee, or five cups of tea.
ThinkGeek describes the product as "a gently invigorating soap...Scented with peppermint oil and infused with caffeine anhydrous." Each "travel-size" bar is suggested to last for 4.5 uses or "servings;" the full size, somewhere around 12.
The company indicates that the product has not been thoroughly tested, and so no guarantees are made of its safety. Pregnant women should not use the product, according to sources at CNN.
Price for a single travel size bar is $2.99. If you really like the product, you can get the bargain rate of ten for $19.99. Full size bars start at $6.99.
So your double espresso soy latte is still a bargain--at least comparatively speaking. But can you share it with a friend?
