Greek Olive Oil Based Soap Bar - Natural and Pure Plant-Based Castile Bar Soap - Unscented - Hypoallergenic - (New & Improved Formula infused with Coconut Oil) - 7.9oz Bars, Pack of 4

I make vegetable oil soap at home but have never made 100% olive oil soap as it is considered tricky to get to set properly. I cannot believe the price on this soap - one 8 oz, give or take, L'Occitane bar is $10 ($12 Canadian as I am currently residing here temporarily). Mondo terrific value. Speaking from experience as a soap maker, these bars are hard, which means they last a long time. They don't have added fragrance, which is a plus for me, as I don't generally add fragrance to my own soaps. It does have an odor, not unpleasant, and I'm clean smelling, soap smelling, after use. My son and father have contact dermatitis issues with some soaps so this is an ideal soap for sensitive skin, including I'd say infants, although my son is now an adult and I don't have a baby handy to give it a test. My husband complained that the bars get slimy in the soap dish if left in water (duh) and that they left his skin feeling slimy too. Translating into regular person speak, my skin feels moisturized and yes, a touch oily (olive oil - duh again) after use but in this ultra dry, overheated Canadian winter, moisturized is a big plus. And don't let the soap sit in water, tilt it in the dish or get a dish that drains. I use a washcloth lathered with soap, not the bare bar, so the size isn't particularly an issue for me. I think cutting it in half or thirds is a great idea for those who find the size too much to handle. You might find some green transfer to a washcloth, but I prefer a thinner, cheaper washcloth over a huge plush and expensive one any day and the green will generally wash out in the laundry. I've given my daughter a bar and will order some for her directly to her US address if she likes it. I think if we're not given the news that we're going home this summer, I'll order some sent to my parents' house for me to bring back. The delivery from Greece was slow but it arrived. I had some more expensive soap to burn through in the meantime. And my husband will use whatever I find at the big box of Wal.

Discovered this soap on a trip to Greece last year. What I like most is that it cleans well, has few ingredients, and has a satisfying lather, especially when used with a loofah. it does not leave my skin as dry as big brand soaps do, and I should also mention that I do not have sensitive skin so I cannot speak to its allergic effects on folks who do. The only drawback I can think of is that the scent may be a little off putting to people used to, or prefer richly scented soaps. It’s not a bad scent, but more of an earthy, natural oil-based scent, but one that does not linger on the skin like heavily scented soaps do. Just a natural, honest clean.

This is an excellent product! It is a true olive oil soap made in Greece that I’ve been using for years. There is no scent, it is mild on the skin, and the bar size is not skimpy!

I've been using this soap for about a week and I'm really pleased. It is natural and unscented; it has a mild olive oil scent when using it that disappears soon after rinsing. It leaves my skin feeling good and not dried out. I've even beem using it as a shampoo without conditioner with good results; my hair is clean and combs out well, neither dry nor oily. This is the same soap sold in smaller and more expensive bars under the same name. I received four individually packaged bars, a total of about 1 kg, more than 2 pounds, in great condition. The bars are too big to use individually, but they cut easily lengthwise and crosswise with a chef's knife without crumbling.

The Soap itself is perfect and is ideal for very sensitive allergic skin. While it lathers adequately, you won’t find billows of lather with this soap because it doesn’t contain the coconut lathering derivatives present in almost every other soap on the market, even so called Castile soaps. The scent is best described as a clean soap like scent, neither off-putting or offensive. As someone who cannot tolerate fragrance in personal products, it was fine with me. Skin is left refreshed and clean without any itchiness or irritation. I’ve taken off one star from my review because the soap was banged up with corners chipped off because of rough handling and or delivery…a shame because it is a beautiful appearing bar of soap. Instead of using plastic bags, perhaps Amazon should deliver this fine soap in a box.

I don’t use anything other soap and haven’t for a long time. I only buy this. I could type a novel about how I found this brand but I’ll just say that my skin has always been super sensitive and I suffered skin allergies for over 30 years, and finally I found a magical herbalist who sold me this soap. It’s a lifetime staple for me now. I used to be grossed out by bar soap and always had one hundred different products, but that all went out the window. Do yourself a favor and start using this forever. It’s even safe for your face. I love the way it makes my skin feel and I do use it on my face sometimes. SAFE for everyone without all the chemical crap. BUY IT! You won’t be mad, I promise.

My purchase last week of this soap will be my last. I was a big believer of this company, and this soap until my last order arrived when I learned that they have changed the ingredients so drastically they had to issue a new UPC code for this product, as it is NOT the same as it's predecessor. Lets start off with shrinkflation... the bar got smaller by .5 ounces, yet the price has continued to climb. The previous product had Aegian Sea Salt, the new version has no less than 5 different sodium compounds to replace the Aegian Sea Salt. This is not the same product it was before, and I will not be buying it again

I have severely acne prone skin with a lot of redness and eczema. This soap is fantastic. I use it on my face, body, etc. and no breakouts, no residue, and my skin feels far more supple and soft. Irritation has decreased. Skin isn't so stripped after a shower. For the price, it's amazing! The fragrance does smell like sniffing a bottle of olive oil... but it doesn't linger on your skin.

Excellent soap… been using for years… I love it.

المنتج ذو جوده عاليه و لا يحتوي اي روائح مضافه يوجد الكثير من التعليقات السلبيه حول رائحه المنتج على انها كرية. و الحقيقه ان رائحه المنتج تشبه نوعا ما رائحه دخان الحطب. و في الغالب ان هذه الرائحه يكتسبها المنتج خلال مرحله الطبخ فاذا كانت رائحه الدخان/الحطب لا تناسبك فهذا المنتج قد لا يناسبك

Very good. Doesn't smell extraordinary but it helps. No more falling hair.

Excelente Qualität. Die beste Seife die ich je hatte. Sie reinigt ohne die Haut auszutrocknen, hat keinen künstlichen Duft oder andere Chemie. Ich bleibe bei der Seife.

The og of castile soap. Beautiful, non drying, no odor on skin no perfume.
