Review (5/5): This stuff does exactly as described!
So far, I absolutely LOVE this soap! I ordered the sampler pack. I started with the Pine Tar, because I thought it would be my least favorite, as I'm not a huge fan of "pine" scented products. However, I was surprised! The smell is very strong at first, and remains pretty strong when it sits in the shower. However, it is much more subtle on your skin. it leaves my skin pretty soft (which was a shock,) and I felt cleaner than I had with Irish Spring, which I'd been using for years. It surprised me again when it removed the remaining grease from my skin left behind by the Gojo I use after working on my projects.
That's not to say it works miracles, because it doesn't. It does exactly as the manufacturer describes!
This isn't Lava Soap, Fast Orange, or some other heavy duty hand cleaner. It's an all natural, GREAT smelling bar of soap. If you need something stronger, better buy IT first.
I've seen some reviewers complain about how long it lasts, claiming only 3 days. The photo I posted is after 30 days of use. Yes, 1 month. Now, I'm not a huge guy. 5'6", 150 lbs, average build. Most days I shower twice a day, once before work and once after I work out or get filthy working on a project. I keep the soap in a draining soap dish so it isn't soaking in a bowl of water. I also use it as shaving cream, as I shave my head and face while in the shower. So I don't know what happened to reduce the bar to a lump of goo in only 3 days.
If you keep it in a soap dish that fills with water and doesn't drain, your soap won't last as long. If you are 6'9", 350 lbs, your soap won't last as long. if you are eating it, it won't last as long. if you are allergic to something in the soap, it's not the soap's fault.
I am about to try the next flavor in the pack, so I'll update my review then.
Meanwhile, I love this stuff and fully recommend it! Worth the price (which admittedly could be a little less.)
