Activated Charcoal Soap Bar 100g Deep Detox - Natural & Vegan Anti-Breakout Black Soap for Face, Whole Body, and Hand Wash - Handcrafted in EU

I bought this soap as I was looking for a more natural product with very little packaging as I am trying to reduce the amount of plastic I buy. The main reason I bought this soap was because I wanted to get rid of the black heads and bumps on my forehead and chin and I am delighted to report that this product has worked wonders on my skin! The soap has lasted months, I don’t need even to buy another one yet as I still have about a quarter of the bar left (I use this to double cleanse morning and night) however I want to buy another just because I love it so much and never want to run out! My forehead blackheads have visible reduced and my skin feels much more even. Also I expected it to dry out my skin as it can be sensitive sometimes but it hasn’t at all, I actually think it has balanced out the oils on my face. I am also having much less hormonal breakouts and when I do have a few spots here or there, this helps to calm them. I’m so glad I found this soap!

We use this charcoal soap bar for our sphinx cat, who suffers allergies with any other 'sensitive' product we have tried. It cleans the skin adequately and does not inflame his skin during or after a wash. It also leaves his skin soft and moisturized. His skin inflammation has subsided after a week with using this soap bar (approx. 2 or 3 washes).I would think if this soap bar will work on a cat with delicate and sensitive skin prone to excessive oil build up, it will work on humans equally well. Worth a try.

I have been using this soap for a few weeks now. I am happy with the smell and how it feels to use. The charcoal in it acts almost like a very, very gentle exfoliant. Good for removing make up and when stored properly after use, will last for a long time, at least a few months if used just for the face. Sadly I did find it a bit drying overall so had to reduce the use from daily to every few days. That's the only reason I'm marking down a star. I supposed it might be the nature of soap in general though so just something to bear in mind before purchasing.

I don't have any skin problems but I always always itch when I get out of the shower after using shower gel. I've used lots of different ones and the only one that didn't give me itchiness was a brand the doctor recommended but it is basically like washing with cream and doesn't leave you feeling clean at all. This soap however is absolutely gorgeous! Firstly, I bought it with a kesse which is a traditional scrubbing exfoliating mitt used in hammems (turkish baths) which left me feeling unbelievably clean and soft! Would highly recommend pairing it with one of those! Secondly I used this on my face too as I am 28 but still get spots and it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry, just a little tight but nowhere in comparison to using any other soaps! I do believe this soap has genuine properties which can clean your pores out because I also have blackheads but since using this for 1 week daily I am noticing they aren't as bad as before! This is without even scrubbing, just foaming with my hands! Very happy indeed and will continue to buy this indefinitely now. It's so nice to find a genuinely simple natural product with no crap in it :)

This is the second time I buy this soap. It's not a miracle product but it did help my skin (body only, I find it far too drying for my face) when I first tried it, so I bought it again. This time I was surprised that the bar of soap I received didn't have the name printed on it. Also my skin reacted badly when I used it, I got red patches all over. Now I use it once or twice a week only, it's ok but won't buy it again.

AMAZING. I had good skin as a teenager but since my son was born my skin has been awful. After 4 years of trying drugstores and supermarkets even more expensive ones like Clinique or proactive I’d settled on simple because it didn’t dry out my skin and left it clean... even then I still had some spots. I have quite sensitive skin so washes that combat spots dry out my face. This is perfect, leaves my skin feeling fresh and after just 6 days the difference is dramatic! Still not 100% clear but clearest it has been since after I had my son and that’s just with 6 days use. Hopefully a bit longer and I’ll clear up more? I’ll update you guys. I was going to leave it a couple of weeks to review but honestly I don’t feel I need to. I also like how it’s paper packaged so not filling landfills with even more excess plastic.*edit as people have said, I tried it on my back where I sometimes break out. Had a particularly bad breakout since time of the month and stress of studying myself/ homeschooling my son during lockdown. Within 2 uses spots on lower back and shoulders has cleared up substantially

Love the smell , I keep it in my wardrobe so everything smells lovely when you wear it .pretty marble effect . Jean

Lockdown has been harsh on the skin so I thought I'd buy this charcoal soap for a few spots that I had developed. After using this for about a month I can say it made no difference to my skin, if anything I developed a few more spots using it. On reflection this seemed to be no different to a regular bar of soap, it's a good size and worth a try but for £9.99 there may be cheaper and more effective options available.
