Awful

My face felt like I'd scrubbed it with a brillo pad after I washed it with this soap. So red and irritated — 1 year, 3 months ago

so gentle
taryn.romero (43 reviews)

I have really sensitive skin (and eczema too) and eveything I used felt like it was drying out my skin and making the problem worse. My dermatologist recommended this soap to me. It is so gentle and makes my skin feel clean and soft. I feel like it gets all of my make up off without leaving any residue behind and doesn't irritate my eczema either. It wasn't expensive ($3 for a bar) and it really does live up to it's name. — 7 months, 3 weeks ago

Doesn't really clean
CeeNee888 (160 reviews)

I used then when my skin was inflamed as a result of harsh cleansers, but even though it didn't irritate my skin any further, it didn't really clean it either left a greasy felling which I hate. — 7 months, 2 weeks ago

wonderful
Kikikins625 (457 reviews)

I never use bar soaps because of the harshness of them so when my husband bought this I figured he would be the only one to use it. I used it one day and my face felt so good after that it is all I use now! — 3 years, 8 months ago

Mmmh... Milky Soap, Oops, I Meant GREAT Soap
Starluxe (298 reviews)

The last cleanser I used from Cetaphil gave me the creeps whenever I looked at my skin and felt the waxy film on my face and noticed to see how rough my skin has gotten post usage probably around two days later. I decided to give this a try and I really liked it. The bar runs into a creamy lather and washes off all my makeup and doesn't leave residue behind leaving any irritating deposits or leaving that film over my face but the best part was that I didn't see redness nor did I experience dryness or itching with this product. I do have hypersensitive skin that is acne prone so this keeps everything calm and less stressful for my skin. — 3 years, 11 months ago

venenumletalis (86 reviews)

I like how this soap cleanses and how my skin feels after I use it, but the smell is just awful. Makes the whole bathroom stink. I'll stick to liquid cetaphil, which at least doesn't smell. — 9 months, 3 weeks ago

No
khchxo8 (4 reviews)

Tried it for a week and got more pimples on my forehead. It leaves a film over your face that's uncomfortable. The gentle cleanser in liquid form is much better. — 2 months, 3 weeks ago

ugh
macci_macaranas (1 reviews)

I don't know how this happened despite all the wonderful reviews... but it ruined my skin somehow. Maybe I was overwashing, because supposedly liked this better because it doesnt leave your skin feeling greasy the way the liquid wash does. Still. Bumps. — 7 months, 1 week ago

Simply the best

There is no better cleansing bar. I love this because you can use it on your face and body and it can be used at any age. I highly recommend this if you have sensitive skin or eczema. — 7 months, 2 weeks ago
