text: Andrew Pears was an English man, born around 1770, who invented transparent soap. He moved to London in 1789 from his home in Mevagissey, Cornwall, where he had trained as a barber. He opened a barber's shop in the then-fashionable residential area of Gerrard Street, Soho, that attracted the custom of many wealthy families. At that time, London upper classes were cultivating a delicate white complexion whereas a tanned face was associated with the working class who toiled in the outdoors. Andrew
