I got this as a free sample from purchasing the Kose White face mask. As it's a bar soap I honestly didn't expect anything much out of it. However, after using for a week already and actually...

It will make my acne become smaller the next day, and my face will brighten up a tone. However, it cannot stop the new acne keep popping up, so I stop using it.

As other reviewers have noted, this soap is pretty mediocre. It lathers up OK, smells nice, and does a fairly decent job cleaning, but nothing beyond that. For the basic qualities, it's not worth...

I tried to love this but it gave me pimples. I stopped using this and my skin cleared up. I repeated the cycle about 3 times and every time it gave me pimples on my cheek area. I know I should...

I received a sample of this when I bought cosmetics at a japanese outlet. It doesn't lather too well at all...so you really have to rub your hand together in order for it to foam. I'm not sure why...

I have combination skin with occasional breakout. This soap is too drying for my skin and soap foam is very not practical.

This black, hand-made soap is superb! I had stopped using soap a cleanser for more than 15 months, since I felt like it dehydrated my skin, made my skin rough, and enlarged pore. Now I come back...

It's a very good cleaser. It lasts long time. It took me about 2 years to finish one soap. I use it twice a day, and sometimes my hubby use it too.

I've been using this soap for about 3 weeks now and I'm growing very fond of it. It is a deep cleansing soap that doesn't dry out my sensitive skin. In fact, it actually seems to make my skin...
