26/11/2024, By SandraI first bought the Castille liquid soap of the same brand and it was great as a shower gel, even does wonders for my hair and as a handwash soap in a pump bottle. THEN I tried the soap bar and my expectations were far exceeded. This is a gem of note. I have never, ever, gotten out of the shower without my skin screaming for moisturiser, ever. It's also good on my face and I find I need to apply way less day moisturiser after using the castille bar. I will never be without this soap again.09/10/2024, By LauraA wonderful and more natural soap to use instead of those full of extra chemicals and perfumes. The bar soap is so versatile and can be used to make a liquid castile soap by just adding water. Brilliant and will be purchasing more for sure!30/04/2024, By S GPerfect for hand and body wash. No fragrance and nasties just pure soap :)26/04/2024, By Tracy JI love this soap! The only soap that doesn't flare up the recurring dermatitis on my hands. Amazing for super sensitive skin, and cleans really well. ♥09/02/2024, By KarenSuch a divine soap, foams nicely and feels moisturing all at the same time. Very gentle and luxurious feeling.03/10/2022, By LoekieThe best soap ever for hair ... face ... and body with the added olive oil .. !!!
I do not need a hair conditioner anymore .. my curls stay in for 2 days ???????????? Thank you for the added olive oil ????26/08/2022, By KumiThe best soap with only 3 ingredients! Gentle
Only thing is it dries out your skin quite a bit.
06/01/2022, By NickyI have a fussy skin & most face washes just dont work. This one is perfect. My hubby even uses it to shave with & he really loves it!13/05/2021, By JacquelineI love this soap! I'm allergic to so many things and have sensitive skin. This is the only soap I can use. And particularly now with covid, I really need a soap that I don't react to. This soap is perfect for me. Plain, simple, effective.22/10/2020, By AmsGreat product. Personally, I use this as a face soap for my sensitive skin. It is very cleansing and somewhat drying, however, if you moisturize directly after washing your face it works well. Great service, fantastic packaging (all boxes, tape and padding fully recyclable material), the product was delivered very timeously (ordered late Sunday evening, delivered Monday afternoon).20/07/2020, By JacolienThis is the best stuff ever. I have skin conditions and this soap gave me no reactions. I use it for my hair as well and now my family are it too.11/05/2020, By MakgomoI have sensitive skin and this seems to be helping with easing that. I use it in the evenings only.01/05/2020, By MeghanVery good, bar is exactly what I expected. I used it to make laundry soap and it works wonders.24/04/2020, By NoeleenOnly soap I use! Fragrance Free and although the bar is small it a while.08/04/2020, By NoeleenLove that it is actually fragrance free as so many other say it and still have a smell! Love the feel on my skin especially with dry skin and multi chemical sensitivity! Just wish it came in a bigger bar and was a bit cheaper21/03/2020, By HeiletteThis is still my favourite bath soap. It is very mild and doesn't leave your skin dry or itchy. In summer I don't use lotion as I don't feel I need it. I have very sensitive skin and have used this on my face in a pinch when we were camping.24/02/2020, By MarielI use this soap bar as dish washing soap. It lathers well and leaves my plates squeaky clean. I love that I am not using a liquid that needs to be contained in a plastic bottle or anything chemically. So simple, effective, and faithful to nature #FTNLoves20/11/2019, By MazI use this soap instead of dish washing soap - it is a great plastic free alternative and really works.20/10/2019, By CindyI love soaps that are fragrance free! The price has gone up a bit since the first time I bought it but it lasts a very long time. I even used it to wash my hair. Great product.25/09/2019, By ClemiVery good baby soap! My newborn's skin rashes easily, but with this soap it keeps it in perfect condition.09/09/2019, By VanessaHave been using this soap for a few weeks now. It cleans as soap should and has no perfumes, which is bonus. Will buy again.28/07/2019, By LynneLove this soap. Have Psoriasis and also a very sensitive skin and this soap has worked wonders. My skin feels really soft and moisturized.
P.S. several complaints re it getting slimy, agree, but as usual FTN has come to the rescue with Safix Soap Rest and also Scrub pad made from coconut husks. Saves the soap from getting slimy. A real win.
27/05/2019, By PixiGooThis is one of the best soaps i have used for my sensitive skin. It just about cleared all of my irritation and did not break me out.26/04/2019, By CaroThis is the most gentle soap for my very sensitive skin25/04/2019, By YumnaI use this for everything.. Body Soap, shampoo and laundry. For my hair and clothing the manufacturer recommend a vinegar rinse.. With my hair I use ACV and just usual spirit vineagar with my laundry. Has really made a difference and removes build-up. Love that it still lathers. #allegictococonut06/04/2019, By MeganLove this soap. It leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean. It is a bit gooey though which takes some getting used to. Also the bar is consumed more quickly than conventional soaps12/12/2018, By TaniaAbsolutely love this soap. So creamy and left mine and my kids' skin feeling silky soft.04/12/2018, By CelestLovely soap. Made the switch to healthier lifestyle so easy. Will never go back to the commercial showergel I used before. Use for the whole family as well as face and body. So a all in one product for our family. Also so moisturizing that I don't need to apply lotion on my body01/12/2018, By TerriA wonderful soap for anyone with sensitive rosacea skin. Have come back to it after trying many other products, and my skin is thanking me for doing so.06/11/2018, By Danalove it. I tried melting it down into an all purpose liquid soap which was a messy challenge but it works wonders, so far I have used it to clean my tent, my hair(worked well but i prefer soap nuts now instead), washing clothes, surface cleaner, dish soap, body etc the list keeps growing. The only thing i don't like is the smell, its not a bad smell but its also not a good smell. I used some lemon grass essential oil which eliminates that if you are melting it don, also there is a lemon grass version that I will be ordering soon. Overall i am going to be buying a lot of it.26/10/2018, By LizVery happy with this product. It's not drying and contains no hypo-allergenic ingredients. I searched for some time for such a pure, simple product and have not been disappointed - it smells pleasant too.07/09/2018, By BrookeWorks great - I grate it and use it to make my own laundry detergent.14/08/2018, By JenUse it as a face and body wash, love it. Also use it for my hair, which is coloured, and it leaves it in really good condition.08/08/2018, By HeiletteLove this soap. It has an exfoliating action even though it's soft to the touch. It get's a little slimy/soft right at the end, but still works the same.23/07/2018, By RedbowLeaves skin feeling amazing. Great for shaving. Dislike how slimy it gets but will purchase again.18/07/2018, By MelissaReally great soap! Nice size. Have used it to replace my normal soap in the shower. Foams nicely. Will buy again.27/06/2018, By PriscillaI bought it to wash my delicate lingerie and it works really well as it does not cause any irritation.16/05/2018, By ChrissyVery versatile soap, I use mine to make my own laundry detergent.31/01/2018, By CarolineUse castile soap bar as part of laundry detergent. Clothes come out clean and smelling clean too.21/01/2018, By BronwenThis soap can be anything you need it to be. Make shampoo, body wash, face wash and hand wash. Versatile and safe for anyones skin type.08/01/2018, By JoEvery other soap I have used has left my skin dry and itchy but not this one. Will definitely buy this soap again.26/07/2017, By Abigail SThis is my favourite soap - it cleanses very well while still being gentle and not stripping or drying the skin. Having no essential oils included is great as they often can sting in open damaged skin. It also doesn't get stuck to surfaces very much like other castile soaps do. Very happy this soap exists!20/06/2017, By JessicaThis is a good quality soap. Well packaged and weighs exactly 100 grams. You're definitely getting what is stated on the box. It is mild and has that lovely characteristic Castille Soap scent. A great alternative to commercial soaps but it is rather pricey per bar compared to other commercial soap bars. However, if you can, it's a good investment.03/05/2017, By MorulaneThis soap worked well on my body especially. my face took some time to get used to the itch but after a couple of days I couldn't feel the itch anymore. my only issue was how it just dissolved quickly. id suggest to buy in bulk.22/04/2017, By ColinI previously said this soap seems to be an alternative to Cetaphil for those who also have a 15 minute itching sessions after showering.
After the first few bars this also made me itch (as does 99% of other soaps). I now find the least itching from this soap: Victorian Garden Rosemary & Nettle Soap, which is also a lot cheaper than Cetaphil.17/12/2016, By ColinFinally an alternative to Cetaphil.
Pros:
- It really is gentle on the skin - something many other soaps falsly claim.
- I do not itch after showering
- It does not look like someone used sand paper on my face after showering.
Cons:
- A new block of soap is sharp and hard to use initially
- A bit expensive, but still cheaper than Cetaphil14/11/2016, By YumnaKeeps my dry skin moist. But the soap doesn last long which makes it even more expensive then it already is. Won buy it again.25/10/2016, By BeverlyGreat product that is so gentle on the skin I even use it on my very sensitive and allergic dogs!19/10/2016, By ShivThe soap is a pleasant colour, lathes well and lasts long. Have not experienced any noticeable skin irritation since using the soap. If the product qualifies for endorsement by Dermatologists, the manufacturers should pursue this.30/08/2016, By BronwenThis product is light enough to use on my newborns skin so that makes me very happy.10/08/2016, By SerianeMy mother uses this soap and finds it cleans her skin and hair well without leaving it stripped and very dry.15/07/2016, By EdwinaLove this natural soap, gentle enough for my kids! Even use it on our faces! Will buy again!18/04/2016, By LauraMy father passed away in January this year of cancer, just before he died he had a terrible. Rash and it itched like crazy, it was never diagnosed what it was as he had so many allergies, the doctors
Just gave him cream to use.
About three weeks after his death my mom broke out in the same thing. To me it looked like scabies, So I googled it and the rash the itching the little white things that came out the wounds looked like Scabies.
On researching scabies because now we were all itching, and had the rash, I came across a soap Called castile.
And God bless your company, I ordered you sent pronto and I started using the bar of soap. I would lather it on a face cloth put it all over my body let it dry on me, then run a very hot Bath and redo the procedure in the bath again.
After I towel dried I would lather more soap and apply it overnight. It was two (2) days and my rash and itch was a thing of the past.13/03/2016, By LiezelWe love this gentle soap for use by everyone in the family and even use it as a shampoo bar. Just use some diluted vinegar water as a conditioning rinse.16/09/2015, By sashaThis is so gentle and does not dry out my sin, or irritate it at all! Fantastic product!04/08/2015, By CindyWe are loving this simple soap that is gentle and does the job. Very gentle on my very sensative-skinned 5 year old too.16/05/2015, By TerriHaving battled for many years, including visits to the Dermotologist,trying to find a cleanser for my very sensitive and reactive skin, I have at last found the perfect product. This soap bar has calmed down my sensitive skin and does not cause any irritation or breakouts. I would highly recommend if you have sensitive skin.
