There are 2 types of bar soap from this company, the black mud and the aloe. Both are the best soaps for my face and back that I have ever used. I have oily skin and like to use them on my face and back rather than my standard Caress soap because these areas need help wit hthe oil and ocassional breakout. I have treid SO MANY soaps, cleansers and treatments for my acne and NONE compare to this soap. I lather, leave it on for about a minute then rinse. No more breakouts. I first purchased this at Marshalls, but now I can only find it online at Yahoo and it is soooo expensive now! $18 a bar! But it is so good I am willing to do it. I contacted a US seller and they said it is difficult to come by b/c it is manufactured in Isreal and with all the problems in the Middle East it is hard to have regular shipments of it. I do not know if that's true, I just know I have had to go a few years without it at times. Please never discontinue the production of this stuff!
