I'm writing this review because I feel that this soap gets needless bad reviews. Let it be known that this is not a soap for drier or more sensitive complexions- and that DHC recommends this for...

I used this soap along with the toner and lotion set for oily skin. It works well in terms of controlling oil, but not too well for controlling acne. My skin is very prone to acne but isn't too...

For some reason I was jonesing for a facial bar soap. I planned on buying Clinique acne bar soap but apparently they it's discontinued. I went to a DHC counter and the lady referred me to this...

Pure Soap has been a lifeline for me, in conjuction with DHC's Cleansing Oil. I've had acne-prone skin since my teens, and nothing I've used over the last 25 years has ever kept my skin clear AND...

A perfect cleanser for oily/combination skin types. It's probably drying for those with dry skin to begin with (they might be better off with Mild Soap). This came with the Blemish Care Set, and...

My skin loved this on my first bar of soap but then on my second purchase, it didn't seem to lather as much and didn't help to clear my skin. I think the DHC washing powder is so much better than...

I can't believe the difference this soap made for my skin. I had been using Neutrogena's Fresh Foaming Cleanser, which worked fine and kept blemishes at bay, but I think it was dehydrating my very...

I've had acne my whole life and nothing, including prescription creams, have been able to clear it up. I tried a sample and liked it so got the full size. I wasn't expecting any miracles, but by...

I like using this soap when my skin is feeling too sensitive to handle anything else, like when it gets too dry in the winter. Also lasts for a long time if you get the big size.

This soap last a very long time. I don't like to use soap on my face. Perfer more gentle and liquid facial cleanser.

Holy cow. A soap for $10 THAT I ACTUALLY LIKE! Use the Balancing Toner and Acerola Gel afterward, and you've got a winner for oily/sensitive skin. At night I use the Cleansing Oil before the...

I love this soap. It makes a nice lather, and then rinses off completely, no mean feat with the super-soft water we have here. I personally don't find it drying. I've used both Pure Soap and Mild...

I would rather use Mild Soap because this soap is very drying. Mild Soap works for acne prone faces as well.

I LOVE this soap. I have very oily, acne prone skin and this does such a great job of removing oil and debris. I love DHC's soaps b/c they wash clean and don't leave any residue. This leaves my...

I got a sample of this, and I like it a lot better than the Mild Soap. I have oily skin, and this gets rid of all my greasies. However, you need moisturiser after this, since it tends to dry out...
