Testimonial

"This is by far the best SOAP on the market. It also keeps my face clean and my fore head and nose free of pimples or black heads. Have had an issue using other soaps in the past and my skin is clear now. OMG i can't say enough about this soap. And for some reason if i use any other organic SOAPS it doesn't work like this. I SIMPLY LOVE THIS SOAP. I even use it on my hair i gave up SHAMPOO. I used to get pimples everywhere now i don't. Even on my SCALP. After SHAVING to my face would have RAZOR BURN but the secret to razor burn is using hot water and gel really wet or this soap the secret is to keep the face WET VERY WET to erase RAZOR BURN learned this after 40 years of shaving." - Daniel

Testimonial

"I love this product. I love the smell of tea tree and peppermint, although it can get a little strong if you use too much at one time. The coconut oil is very moisturizing on the skin so your skin does not feel dry after using it. The activated charcoal is great at deeply cleaning the skin while also feeling refreshing. I noticed a tingly sensation but I enjoyed it, my skin felt cleansed after showering with this. After showering with this soap consistently, I noticed my skin was noticeably softer. I definitely recommend this soap. I love that it comes with two medium sized bars instead of one large bar. I wish the bars had rounded corners which would make it easier to hold when wet but I still love this soap." - Cherinee

Testimonial

"Excellent soap. Not much of the product is needed to produce a rich lather. The bars of soap are large and should last a while. The scent is quite pleasant, isn't overpowering and I'd say it is a gender neutral scent. I don't think I have ever been excited about a soap until now. Skin felt wonderful after using it. I will be purchasing this again. These will make great gifts. Product of Jordan." - Eric

Testimonial

"I ordered this soap with the hope that it would help clear up a little of my hormonal acne after having a baby. I already had charcoal soap in my face care routine, but it was drying my skin out so much I had to use double the normal amount of moisturizer to compensate. I loved the ingredients list of this soap so chose to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did! After the first initial week of a few spots popping up, my face is now clear! I love the smell, the feel, and the results! This has been the only change to my routine, so I know it's made the difference, and I now only have to use a very small amount of moisturizer after use! Highly recommend!!" - Callie

Testimonial

"This bar of soap leaves the skin feeling moisturized and cleanses well. The smell isn't too over-powering and has a nice, fresh, peppermint scent. I like that the ingredients are non-irritating to the skin and doesn't feel like it leaves any residue behind. I have sensitive skin, and it didn't cause any irritation. My skin feels refreshed and clean after using it without leaving it dry. When I leave it on my bathroom sink, it doesn't leave a black reside behind on the sink either. Overall, a very nice product. I just wished that the entire packaging was environmentally friendly. The soap is also packaged inside plastic, in addition to the outer packaging. I feel that the inside plastic isn't necessary and just adds to unnecessary waste." - M. Houim

Testimonial

"I actually bought this for my husband to try and get him to take better care of his skin, but now I use it all the time. This is the perfect face wash for someone who's always on the go. I don't travel without it and I bought a second one for my gym bag. It leaves your face feeling so clean (yes, even if you're wearing makeup!) and it's so fast. I was skeptical about a "stick" face wash at first, but my skin feels great afterward and it's shockingly speedy. Not something I thought I was looking for in a face wash - until now. I'm obsessed now." - Dana B.
