Words cannot express how much I love this soap. It has completely transformed my skin into something I never thought it could be. I remember looking at models and actresses on Tv just praying that my skin could one day be as gorgeous and as even as their’s. I’ve had acne and bacne for about 5 years now(age 14-19) and have been self-conscience about it. It kept me from doing activities with my friends and kept me from living my life how I wanted to. I’ve tried everything for my acne: Proactive, Clearasil, Aveeno, you name it. I’ve even seen a dermatologist. Nothing was working for my skin. In an hour of desperation. One of my friend suggest me for this soap. The smell of the soap isn’t terrible. In fact, I actually like the smell of it. When you rinse your face and apply moisturizer, it doesn’t even leave a trace. No need to worry about other people smelling it in close proximity. If you are worried just wear a little perfume to cover it up. The soap itself is very smooth and soothing on the skin. Doesn’t lather like most soaps, rather it feels like a creamy soap(I’m thinking it’s the lanolin). I massage the product onto my face and leave it on for 10 minutes like the package says. It creates a mask that dries to pull impurities out of the pores. This soap did give me an initial breakout but it wasn’t awful(maybe 3 or 4 pimples max). But even so, this soap dried them up fairly quickly. I would recommend getting a good moisturizer because the soap can be drying and if you don’t replace that moisture, your skin will produce excess oil to make up for it causing more pimples.
