Having had problem and sensitive skin all my life, I’m always on the lookout for new soap products, and when I was offered this one, I jumped at it.
The box was a bit difficult to open, but as the bar isn’t going back in, it doesn’t matter if you tear the box.
I’ve not heard of Salicylic Acid, but I have used many many body scrubs, be it in bar form, salt scrubs or gels and they have always helped my skin, especially if I have an outbreak of acne, so the scrubs help prevent the outbreak in the first place. You can always tell if a scrub works, if you get no outbreaks till after the scrub has run out, then it obviously works, and so far this is working.
Having now read up on Salicylic Acid, it come from the willow tree and is used as an a Bactericide and an Antiseptic, used to strip off the top layer of skin and commonly used to treat acne, dandruff, warts, ringworm etc.
The bar of soap lathers up well, and a little goes a long way, and the bar seems to be lasting a long time, unlike some soaps, that are so soft, they disappear within the week. This bar is genuinely nice and hard and is a good size and weight at 100gms, and sits neatly in the palm of your hand. It smells slightly of coconut and tea tree, this being two of the ingredients, I don’t mind the smell of tea tree, but some might not like it. It isn’t a strong smell, in fact the bars aroma isn’t strong at all.
After use, my skin feels fresh and tight and I can see that the pores have been scrubbed…
