Review: Superb for skin, superb cleansing - I usually keep a bar of this by the bath because we have dermatitis, eczema and psoriasis. We really do find that this soap is the best out there for calming skin conditions without drying the skin. I put a bar of this at the sink for hand washing last week. Everyone's hands were starting to suffer from constant hand washing, even using the gentlest liquid soap. Both mine and my daughters were red raw and cracking. This soap is amazing for hand washing, it's reversed the effects of the liquid soap and they're no longer anywhere near as dry. No moisturiser needed (I am not a fan of using hand moisturiser when I'm busy) - I'm not entirely sure that the sticky layer of a moisturiser is a good idea with current hand washing requirements in any case. We also realised just how much better the lather is; it's dense and rich, and it really cleanses the hands thoroughly. You just don't get the same thick cleansing lather from liquid soap. And of course, it smells amazing. I knew it was amongst my favourite bar soaps for a good reason!
Review: Soap is good - Bought this soap to see if it would help me with my scalp condition. I was researching online and it says antibacterial soap can help. So far it feels good. The smell is strong and smells medicated. I like it and it feels nice and clean to me. My kids don’t like the smell. It does a really good lather, so all in all a good wash. Your hair can feel a bit dry from it, so I put loads of conditioner on after and it seems to work. It to early to see if it works for my scalp condition, but will keep using it and see.
