A high-quality soap with great aroma, foaming and cleansing that I plan to use quite often
Review of:  TCM Men's Cleansing Activated Charcoal Bar Soap - For all skin types - 5oz (1 Pack)<br /><br />In the handful of times that I’ve used the TCM Charcoal Bar Soap I’ve noticed a number of items that I’ve been really pleased to experience.<br /><br />The first is the size of the bar; no wimpy sliver of soap here.  The bar right around 3 inches in length, 1 ¾ inches wide and 1 ½ inches tall.  A size big enough that, until I used the soap enough times to round off the edges, the size was almost too large to hold easily using just one hand.<br /><br />A second, immediately noticeable, item was the smell.  Not a sweet smell but more of a slight, dusky, flower-like aroma that, for me at least, was super nice.  Perhaps, in it’s own way, as nice an aroma as I’ve found with any bar of soap.<br /><br />The amazing amount of lather this bar gives off was another pleasant surprise, far more than I had expected from something that doesn’t fit into the ‘body-wash’ category.  When washing my face, I only need to rub the bar in my hands a couple of times and then when the soap is rubbed onto my face the suds really start forming.  The lather is impressive, especially compared to other ‘cleansing’ bars I’ve used before.<br /><br />The charcoal, or maybe it’s some other ingredient, does seem to do a nice job of cleaning my face, especially after I’ve applied sun screen earlier in the day.  Sun screen, in my experience, soaks into my skin really deeply and is almost like a magnet in attracting dirt, and many ‘regular’ soaps simply don’t seem to cut through the grim.  The TCM soap, however, removes any embedded dirt and also does away with the slick feeling the sun screen leaves on my face.  noticed that many cleaning soaps especially after washing my face.<br /><br />On the other-side-of-the-coin, however, I’ve noticed that the TCM Charcoal Bar Soap leaves my skin drier than I expected; for me there was no real sense of having any moisturizing left on my face after washing.  This dryness was apparent to me as, after washing, my face was almost too dry to be able to comfortably use my electric razor.  Still, while that was a surprise to me I don’t consider the dryness to be a major concern compared to the cleaning benefits the soap gives.<br /><br />All-in-all, the TCM Charcoal Bar is a high-quality soap that I plan to use quite often.<br /><br />If this review was helpful, please click the Helpful button
