I use this only on my face, and it is great for drying out blemishes and clogged pores. It is very very drying to the skin, though so I have to put argan oil or moisturizer on after. I'm cutting...

Hm, this bar of soap is a great product but I have yet to see miracles. First, the pros - it's very cheap (a few $ maximum, depending on where you buy it from), easy to find in various stores, and...

Life saver. I've cleansing my skin with unrefined coconut oil, and I'm going through the hell phase. On top of that, I stopped taking my birth control as well. So basically, zits galore. And...

Love this soap!!! I just have to find a good place to keep it because it is so large. Almost too large for my soap dish. Anyway after use my skin is soft and appears to have a more even tone.
