Abstract: The invention is directed to a soap dish assembly that promotes the longevity of a bar of soap and allows a user to access to the soap without directly handling it. Particularly, the disclosed assembly includes a bottom plate configured to attach to a support surface (e.g., a shower wall). The bottom plate comprises a housing sized and shaped to cooperate with a bar of soap. The soap is therefore retained within the base housing via a middle plate. A front plate attaches to the bottom plate to retain the soap and middle plate therebetween. In use, a sponge or other bathing accessory can contact an exposed surface of the soap, thereby allowing access to the soap without having to directly handle it. Alternatively, a user can rub a desired body part (e.g., their hands) on the exposed portion of the soap for cleaning. As a result, the life of the soap is extended and does not get soggy or softened from excess contact with water during and after use.
