Good solid cleanser
I have been looking for solid cleansers fir my skin for a while and this is one of my go tos. It foams well and leaves your skin very clean, without being stripping. I remove one star because I believe it is a bit overpriced.
I really like this cleansing bar. It has a nice soft lather and you can get it in two different sizes. No residue is left behind and my skin feels comfortable after I rinse it off.
