Clearly Natural Glycerine Bar Soap, Unscented, 3 Count, 4 oz each by Clearly Natural

It takes a lot for me to toss out $3 for 4oz of soap, but I've given the Whole Foods 365 harder bars a try and my skin was itchy and dry, Pears has long been a horrible product nothing like its old self (though the old bars always "smelled like grandma" in that 'old lady fake fragrance' way, not the cozy cookies baking all day scent of grandma)... and a few others, too, that claim to have glycerin but it's way down on the list which goes against the point for super sensitive, easily irritated/inflamed/reddened skin.One solid testimony to this=I took some (I always travel with a few new bars in case I misplace one or my room is cleaned out against the DND/leave it be order) on a trip to Michigan visiting displaced family in that not-great-for-allergy-sufferers area and my brother in law who'd been using unscented Dove was tossed a bar when I saw that 1) they had nothing in there I could use to wash my face, hands etc and 2) his skin was just chronically red and he itched more than he should, even with allergy woes... 2 days, 2 showers later and poof, a big boy back to his Northern Europe creamy-toned skin, ta-da!For me, a huge perk of this=it is TOTALLY great at getting body and deodorant sorts of FUNK away no matter the culprit. Nothing else does it without drying out my skin or worse causing it to feel like I am breaking out in a rash from the itchy after-effects. If your skin is more delicate than a baby's, try it.It's not going to foam up like the junk with skin-irritating SLS sorts of mess or things made from TALLOW=animal fat that will clog your pores up and never quite get you clean, really truly clean. If you want foam, you'll have to use something that lacks the abundance of glycerin. It'll be soft if it gets really hot. It can ooze, yep, if you set it down somewhere flat on its long and wide side; I put it in the dish on top of a cut loofah (a local goat milk soap maker has one that they pour the soap into loofahs and cut the bars after it's hard-it's my exfoliating one and the leftover loofah soaks up this stuff well and lets me set it on the skinny end)... The ONE soap I use besides the artisan local stuff and this=Kirk's Castille soap, my usual hand washing one because THAT will foam up like no other and doesn't take much... but dang it's a skin-drying mess; ALL castille soaps have always been for me.I'm a delicate flower, I guess, but this even works on my FACE which even face cleansers can't be used on 95% of the time. My autoimmune skin symptoms are at bay with it as much as they will ever be; I don't break out in acne or have the eczema patches from it, I can tell my skin's pollutants are getting out because of how the smell changes (when my skin is barely dirty/just hot and I wash it, the smell isn't there; if I go somewhere that has any oil/grease in the air, that aroma becomes part of the soap which DOES lather in my experience, just NOT apparently how much others want).If you want a "squeaky clean" feel, this isn't the thing-try Kirk's. The squeaky clean thing is great for dishes, but skin? You really DON'T want to strip every ounce of moisture out aggressively unless you have been playing with motor oil without gloves on and need GoJo!Ah, and VARIATION IS NATURAL. To freak out about 3 separate bars when one has what might just be ink on the wrapper... wow, weird/extreme. No one USES soap then vacuum seals it; the sealing process costs way more than the soap; they can just sell other bars for enough to cover the one bar they use. This IS an all-natural product, and the bars aren't super hard, so yeah, if they are stored improperly at a warehouse, they'll kinda melt (soaps DO melt-how else do you think they get them into these shapes?) and be lopsided. I don't buy soap for aesthetic purposes and can forgive the variation since it's not like Clearly Natural are who sent it out that way. The product isn't to blame; the warehouse/shipper would be. I've NEVER seen one with dirt on the plastic, with any massive shape deformity, etc in a retail store (natural product grocers/pharmacies/beauty product sellers have this coast to coast though it does go out of stock every time they put it on sale for under two bucks here-I live in a costly place, though, with a huge consumer base for natural goods). I've bought this for years, though, over ten, and nothing compares to it for general purpose body cleaning.Oh, one other decent bar I use that's way harder and that I mostly get the scrubby oat-containing variant of=Sappo Hill's "glycerin" bar. It's not moisturizing but doesn't dry my skin TOO bad (still HAVE to use lotion after though), and my face would be wrecked, but the one w/oats is useful for the bottom of my feet/between toes since that's the only spot I am kind of aggressive about once in a while-it's alright for exfoliating my legs, too, but the goat milk loofah one is just way better so I stick to Clearly Natural in a natural material scrubby mitten or the goat one that costs $5-6 for a few ounces of soap and ounce or so of loofah (stuff is lightweight).That 365 unscented 'glycerin soap bar' still sits with the 365 not even rubbed out-pity there's nothing I can really clean with it besides my skin that it makes itchy.

I use this for my face and neck area since I have sensitive and combo/random skin. It doesn’t foam as much as others, but that is fine because I would rather the application be true to it’s gentle title than having a soft foam that irritates and breaks me out. This will continue to be my soap until I can find a palm oil and/or plastic free bar soap that is both gentle and clean.

My fam of 5 has sensitive skin---- but we are all sensitive to different things! This soap is well priced, has a clean ingredient list, doesn't smell gross while unscented (I guess sometimes the added scent covers up gross natural smells, lol) and gets my stinky athletes clean and fresh smelling! We have tried every natural and conventional soap brand and this is the clear winner!

My elderly mom likes them because they don't dry her skin.

This is a great soap to shave with!
