Review (4/5): Generous, rich lather; skin feels fresh and clean after use
This activated charcoal soap bar comes in a product box that has a tamper-evident seal on the top and bottom part of the opening.
The soap has a mild scent, and while I don't know how to describe the scent, the product description says the scent consists of Eucalyptus, Coconut, Grapefruit, Rosemary. I did not find the scent to be pleasant nor unpleasant. When I am done showering, the scent disappears from my body soon after.
The soap bar does not have a smooth appearance; I can see various swirls and indentations through the surfaces of the soap. The bar is slippery to hold when wet.
The soap gives a generous, rich lather.
Although charcoal is one of the ingredients, this soap did not feel harsh on my skin. I've used other soaps with ingredients (sea salt granules, for instance) that I could feel on my skin as I was using the soap and exfoliated better than this soap. But, I do like how fresh and clean my body feels after using this soap.
I did not notice my skin being significantly better moisturized after using this bar of soap for the past 3 weeks versus how my skin felt before using the soap.
While the box shows stains from the soap (see pic I took), it does not leave stains on the shower stall once I was done rinsing off.
Lastly, expiration date can be found on the side of the box. Mine expires 01/2023.
