Will Leave Your Skin Squeaky Clean

Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2015

Verified Purchase

Black soap? Yes - and it's awesome! The shape is fantastic for holding in wet hands - it doesn't slip and slide out of your grip. It is very easy to lather up due to the shape, also. Just rubbing the bar between wet hands produces a great lather - the bar has these large gritty things embedded in it, which really help to make your skin feel clean. I love to gently rub the gritty bar directly onto my face, but I have to be really gentle and careful. It's too powerful for me to rub anywhere but on my cheeks, forehead and the bridge of my nose - but even just lathering the bar between my hands and then rubbing the lather onto my face produces skin so clean it literally squeaks, and so soft it's tough to keep your hands off of it.

I use this bar at night and the pump in my morning shower. (http://www.amazon.com/Biore-Deep-Charcoal-Cleanser-Ounce/dp/B00NO2466K/ref=pd_sim_194_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=12GSJG3YPDA6SPVY59VM&dpID=41jkfx%2B14EL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_) Both have a slight minty scent, which surprised me - but I love. (The pump has little beads, which pop as you rub them in.) The scent isn't overpowering, it's just right. The bar leaves your skin fresh, brisk, and rejuvenated. You know the scrubbing bubbles that clean your bathroom? Every time I wash my face with this delicious bar, I visualize little scrubbing bubbles cleaning each individual pore...setting up the scaffolding, jumping into the pores and scrubbing like crazy, then using a tiny squeegee to make sure everything is nice, clean, and shiny...before packing up and moving onto the next pore.

I'm so glad I found this - it has replaced the daily face wash I had used for years. If you are looking for a good deep cleanser for your face, this is probably what you want.

Best all over soap for afflicted skin

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2023

Verified Purchase

I have been using this soap as an all over soap for 3 years and it really can't be beat. I have HS and would have sever constaint flairs that never seemed to heal, until I tried this. It has put my armpits in complete remission and I've gone from level 3 to level one in other areas. It's too bad you can't find it in stores anymore but am so thankful I can still get it on amazon. 100% recommend this soap to anyone with problem skin.

Great for face and body

Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2022

Verified Purchase

I was never a bar soap person until about 5 years ago when I was looking for something TSA friendly for travel. I tried it out and liked it for both face and body. My skin is super sensitive and 95% of products I use cause allergies and/or breakouts. Even soaps meant for sensitive, breakout-prone skin break me out within a week of use. This is literally the only soap I will use now. I’ve run out a few times, and unable to find it in my local store, tried Cetaphil and Simple bar soaps, both of which broke me out. And for reference, even the liquid versions of this soap break me out. So, if you have super sensitive skin, give this a shot.

The scent is a natural minty scent, so no heavy perfumes. If you find the “beads” irritating, just lather the soap in your hands instead of directly on your skin. And it can be drying, so just be sure to moisturize after.

Best Facial Cleanser Ever

Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2021

Verified Purchase

This is the best facial cleanser I have ever used. I have very oily skin and this is the only one that has ever helped to control the oil. Also, this bar will last forever. I use it 3-5 times a week. I bought it in October ‘20 and still have 1/4 of a bar left in December ‘21. An incredible value. I wouldn’t buy it if you have sensitive skin because the “beads” are very hard but it works great for exfoliating those with non-sensitive. My skin is super smooth after using. Great peppermint smell as well, good for men, not all flowery or anything. Not a paid review just my personal opinion.

Thorough cleaning

I'm a 50 plus year old man who works a blue collar job. My work is strenuous and I often sweat. This soap lathers nicely and thoroughly cleans my face. I've used regular bar soap for years. This product gets a 5 because it's just so darn good. Men, our faces need attention too.
