This stuff leaves a terrible waxy feeling on my skin that I just can't stand. I love that it's natural though which is why I gave it 3 lippies.

Omg I wish I would've started using this soap earlier! I don't even know how much money I've wasted on trying different facial soaps. My face has definitely cleared up, it's brightened, and I feel...

I haven't used this as long as I would have liked to because it started to stain my tub. Smh. I will try it to clean my beauty blender I read from a previous poster

I bought this soap at target after having tried every type of acne product out there. I read the ingredients and they are all natural. I've had acne pretty much since the beginning of puberty and...

I was so glad I tried this. I was interested in trying the coal face soap from LUSH but really couldn't justify 14 bucks for a hunk of soap. Luckily I found this first. The 3.99 price tag was a lot...

I'm one of the people this didn't work for. It dried out my skin quite badly, giving my face that dry squeaky feeling. I know that overdrying the skin can cause more breakouts if your skin...

Considering this is a soap that claims to help clear up acne, it's nice that it doesn't dry out my skin- but I only use this on the back of my legs so take that as you will. After trying...

I love this soap! I mostly use it for my face, to help with my acne. It lasts for a decent amount of time. I cut it into smaller pieces, because of the size. Other than that. I love it!

I only thought BP or SA bars were the only bars of body soap that could treat my troubled, cystic acne prone body (back, shoulders, chest and in-between my breasts). I've tried so many other bars...

I am so, so, so glad I tried this. My skin used to be full of acne, and then it cleared up for a while, then I started breaking out again. So I tried this, and it's made a world of difference....

This is a product I recommend trying, at least once, in one form or another [bar, liquid soap, etc.]. I give this soap a five-star rating, as I am 99% sure it has been a big contributor to the...

I love this soap. I have acne on my shoulders and back and this is helping. It smells great and the bar is bigger than other bar soaps.
