This is one of my favorite face soaps. I feel squeaky clean without feeling too dried out. And this soap seems to last a very long time, so don’t let the size fool you. It may be small but I’ve been using it day and night most days for going on four months and it seems I’ve barely made a dent!

I bought this after a previous cleanser ran out, in order to slowly make these small switches to zero waste/more sustainable products. I was surprised by how small the soap bar was when it arrived but its been a great product that last me about 3 months. And this is from someone who washes in the morning and before bed. I am purchasing it again because I love it so much but this time pairing with a sisal soap bag to add some exfoliation. I personally need some more oomph on my face from buildup throughout the day. Definitely reccommend it if you’re interested in making the switch from plastic bottles!

I have tried facial soaps, this being the second one I have tried and used several times. Gotta say I love it! It moisturizes and cleans effectively! Either with a silicone finger facial tool or bamboo facial cloth what have you this works. Some people use their fingers to clean their face, whatever works. The scent is light and the bar doesn’t gunk up excessively. Just store with your soap away from standing water. Wonderful bar overall! I will be featuring more on Plum Brilliance in a future episode of my podcast ‘Greener Thoughts’ and cannot wait. I will buy more facial soaps in the future!

Confused about the size. Specs say 5oz, image of packaging lists 3oz. How big is it?

Couple of questions:
1. “proprietary blend” of essential oils – for the sake of transparency I’d like to know what’s actually in it. What does it smell like?
2. Best way to store?
3. Why does the ingredient list not include “pink clay”?

Hi Sarah, thank you for reaching out! This shampoo bar includes essential oils of frankincense, ylang-ylang, geranium, and lavender for a lightweight, floral scent. We like to store these soap bars out of direct water contact on a soap dish like one of these! Earth Clays are listed in the ingredients for this bar and, because there is no distinction between clay based on color for cosmetics, it is simply read as an Earth Clay for these purposes. If you have any additional questions, we’re here to help at support@earthhero.com!

I’m very impressed by this bar – it is gentle, luxurious, and so moisturizing, but also leaves my face looking and feeling very clean and refreshed! I’ve been wary of facial bars being either deep cleansing, but drying or moisturizing, without a deep clean feel. This one is both!!

I absolutely adore this soap! It’s beautifully made and leaves my skin GLOWING after each use! Feels fresh after each use and hydrates my skin well. I’m convinced that it even clears up acne and small scars too! Easy to use, store, dries fast and lathers pretty well. The scent is nice too, and I hope that it lasts!

This bar is great. At first I thought it was weird because for me it doesn’t really lather in the way typical soaps do—it’s more like slippery than bubbly—but it definitely cleans my face. Regular face soaps would dry my face, which made it oily (I didn’t know this was what was happening until I looked into it). But since this soap has oils in it, it moisturizes my face and I haven’t needed face lotion since I’ve started using it. My face is neither oily nor too dry. This saves me from buying those annoyingly small plastic bottles of face lotion. Also, I agree with others that the little bar lasts a long time.

Like others said the bar is pretty tiny but I’ve used it one to two times daily for about 6 months and it is hardly smaller than it was when I received it. It smells nice and works well.

Question
rachaelmurphy –
Are any of the oils saponified or are they left whole? One user wrote that this lathers, but I see no surfactants listed. Are there surfactants in this product?

EarthHero –
Hi, Rachel! While most commercial soaps rely on sulfates to create their lather, this cold-process soap get its creamy lather from the saponins in the oils that are released during the reaction of lye and oil. These soaps are super-fatted, meaning a portion of the oils remain un-saponified, resulting in a cleansing yet moisturizing bar!

Hi there! This bar will remove non-waterproof makeup and leave your skin feeling squeaky clean yet moisturized thanks to the green clay and gentle oils in the bar 🙂

Normally my face breaks out when I switch facial soaps and that did not happen with this product. I will certainly be buying it again.

As noted in other reviews, this bar lasts for a long time even with daily use. The scent is great and it definitely leaves your face feeling clean. I love that the owner, Apryl, leaves a lovely note for her customers on the order “receipt”.

So far so good and it is easy to lather, although the soap was a little smaller than i thought it would be, but a little goes a long way.

Is it good for sensitive skin?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
EarthHero –
Hi AnnMarie! This facial soap is lovely for sensitive or easily irritated skin. It features nourishing plant oils to soothe and calm dry skin and Pink Clay to gently exfoliate and promote a clear complexion. Always be sure to use with lukewarm water instead of hot, so as not to aggravate skin with excess heat. 😀
