It helped my Cystic Acne! LOVE this soap!

Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2019

I started using this soap (along with apricot scrub every other day and Mederma/Vitamin E oil mixed in with 3 drops of calamine lotion as follow up daily moisturizer) as part of my cystic acne problem that I recently developed. In the first 2 weeks or so, I developed the zit-alike pimples which pops up every night/day but they disappear in the morning or by end of the day. It was irritating and discouraging at first but as the package warns it is expected. But after 2 weeks, it helped my acne. I LOVE this soap, it smells great, it doesn't leave any residual soap film and makes my skin very smooth! It does make you feel little dried out but I follow up with rose water spray which I let it dry and then use the above mentioned oil-based moisturizer. I don't know if this is the product or the other products in my acne regimen, but my pores also shrunk dramatically. I stopped using all expensive acne products and replaced it with the soap, and my skin has gotten better, and is EXTREMELY CLEAR and has a nice supple glow!!

Those of you who are suffering from severe cystic/hormonal acne, I know you would want to see the result ASAP, but patience is the key... I saw a "DRAMATIC" improvement in my skin within a month. It's been a 2 months now, and people are amazed by how amazing my skin has turned into. I ordered their turmeric soap that i am going to use next, to get rid of remaining of tough scars.

It is an expensive soap but I cut it in to 6 small pieces and use 1 at a time to avoid wasting it or develop any bacteria around it. I used 1 piece in a month, so I am anticipating this soap to last for at least 5 months! I just ordered "Soap Sample Set" from their actual website which has all different types of soap that they sell. I would highly recommend using this soap for those of you who are in desperate need to rid the acne.

Thank you Aspen Kay! Keep up the good work that you do for people, Don't change your formulas EVER! :)

I never excepted this to be my new favorite soap but turns out I was very wrong.This soap is amazing besides using this on my face which by the way reduced the size of my pores and the last blackhead on my nose has surfaced and looks as though it should be gone very soon.I also never ever thought I would even consider using this in my hair but I took the chance after reading a review about someone using this on her child's hair and decided I would too.My hair has never looked so healthy and so shiny. I normally use high end brands of shampoo and conditioner and for a weekly detox I used Alterna detox with red clover to remove all styling products .That said this is by far the best .I will not use this daily on my hair but weekly I will and of course daily on my skin.My Husband also used this and to my surprise really liked this alot his hair looked better than I have seen it in along time.Doesn't take long at all to see the great results ,smells good and not abrasive at all.Has not dryed out my skin or caused any irritation. Also I want to mention how wonderful this company is.I order almost daily from Amazon and I have not had to many sellers email to follow up on a purchase I wish I remembered her name but I'm posting this from my cell phone and would take time for me to go back into my emails, however I wanted to say Thankyou! This is a company that actually cares if you received your order and if your satisfied. Will definitely be placing more orders and highly recommend this soap and seller!

Skin is clear and more even colored.

Pros
* Dense, solid soap that should last a good while.
* 4.5 oz size which is same size as regular bars of soap (sometimes specialty soaps are small so I am glad this one isn't).
* Draws dirt and impurities from my skin.
* Noticed less redness in my skin.
* Makes my skin feel moisturized because of all the healthy oils and butters in here.
* All natural ingredients, nothing fake or chemical.
* Has a unique smell because of the eucalyptus, lemongrass & peppermint. At first I wasn't sure I liked the smell of it because I am picky with scents. I like it pretty good now and I notice when I walk into the bathroom, my bathroom smells cleaner because I have it sitting by the sink.

Cons
* I love that dead sea mud was first ingredient but I wish the activated charcoal wasn't the last ingredient (except for the scented oils). I think it cleans great but just in my mind when I see one of the helpful ingredients towards the bottom, it makes me wonder exactly how much is in there.

Other
* I use a waterfall soap dish I bought from amazon. This keeps it drained so the soap doesn't sit in water.

A luxurious and nourishing soap bar

Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2023

I recently tried the Aspen Kay Naturals Handmade Dead Sea Mud Soap Bar and overall I was pleased with the product. The soap bar had a nice, earthy scent and left my skin feeling clean and refreshed. It also had a nice, creamy lather which I enjoyed. The dead sea mud in the soap is said to be good for the skin and I did notice that my skin felt more hydrated after using it. However, it is a bit pricey, and for the price, I would have liked to see the bar last a bit longer. Overall, it's a good soap bar, but not worth the premium price.

A Very Pleasant Surprise!!

Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2019

Style: 1 PackVerified Purchase

After using a more expensive "luxury brand" Sea Mud soap, I wondered if I was paying for it's name and former reputation. Many reviewers were now complaining of its smaller size, ingredients (basically charcoal), and its price. I was tempted to try its competitor's algae soap, when research led me to this one. I was initially amazed at the price, then the fact that it's 100% natural and organic with nutrient-rich DEAD SEA MUD as a KEY ingredient, with activated charcoal coming in towards the end of the list. I purchased two bars, chancing my sensitive skin to an unknown. After the first two days of using it, I noticed my face itched a little with small bumps right beneath the surface. A well-sized zit appeared on the side of my nose as well!! I was ready to call it quits and return everything when I remembered a period of "adjustment" was to be expected. I used only water on my face for a few days and decided to give it another try. By this time, the zit was gone and afterward, there was no itching. By the next day of using it, my husband complimented my complexion as looking "buttery". I had noticed some smoothness and radiance, but I didn't want to get too excited too quickly. It wasn't until I noticed my HUSBAND'S complexion after he used the soap in his shaving cup. WOW!! His face looks smoother and more radiant, with a more even tone! I keep telling him that he looks younger! I appreciate the company's up-front explanation that this is no overnight sensation, but given a reasonable period of adjustment, you WILL see an amazing change in your complexion that does not cost an arm and a leg!! I first used it only in the morning, but now I use it twice a day and my face is clear, smooth and glowing. I not only recommend it, I am ready to buy a CASE of it!!

A Truly Hopeless Romantic

Hoping the breakouts are the detox phase....

Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2019

I’ll give this charcoal soap a 3star rating for now. Here’s my situation. I’m a middle aged girl who finally got my PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) problem skin under control and cleared up around late 20’s when suddenly creeping up in my 30’s my pores decide they are gonna be big and obnoxious. Nothing is helping. So I decided to give this soap a try. I like the scent. The soap leaves my face feeling so smoothe and clean after scrubbing and not dry, tho I still moisturize. For that day my face is good, but the next day the break outs start. It’s been a cycle for 3wks now, and while on week 3 I have noticed that my pores appear smaller and my skin smoother (besides the pimples) I am still breaking out. It is maybe a little better and tends to be the worst on my forehead. They are big and painful and nothing like what I usually get. It’s starting to defeat the purpose of small pores when I have a face full of pimples. I will give it another week or 2 and see because I really like to see my pores shrinking. The box does say there is a “detox” period of about 2wks so maybe my face is just still detoxing....? I will try to remember to update if it improves. If not then assume the worst and consider the risks when using.

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2017

I'd like to begin by saying that this soap is literally a miracle! I have suffered from cystic acne and generally troubled skin for the last three years and this soap has worked wonders on my face.Dead sea and mud are generally as miracle beauty products, and as a result you may run into many counterfeits/products with a nice label but no substance. Aspen Kay however did ntofail to dissapoint, the ingredients are as simple as can be and the results I've had with this siap have been remarkable. It has a clean and invigorating scent that everyone in my residence hall loves! It also leaves your face feeling minty cool and fresh after washing ,a trait distinct to this particular soap. I know this because I've used about four different varieties of Aspen Kay on my face. I definitely recommend this soap bar for anyone who is looking for something to alleviate acne, itchy, or dull skin. Keep in mind however that everyone's skin is different , so what works for me may not necessarily work for you. The soap bar alone however was not what delivered results. The key to my regimen was using this soap in conjunction with a rotating face brush. This helped to ensure that the ingredients penetrated my pores. Whenever I want to give my face some extra pampering , I oil it with almond oil , rinse the almond oil off , and then proceed to scrubbing with the brush saturated in Aspen Kay. If you want your skin to thrive, I recommend investing in this soap, almond oil, and a quality moisturizer . I like to use Shea butter as a moisturizer! I hope that you all give this soap a try and I also hope that it changes your skin as much as it has changed mine!

It will make you give up your religious beliefs.

I have spent hundred and hundreds of dollars on skincare products for the face. I used Ivory soap for awhile and that was okay, I have combination skin, so it never got very bad but those annoying blackheads would always be on my nose, no matter what I did. Now, I don’t have a history of acne or breakouts, so when I saw the first week of having a few pimples where I had never gotten them before, I was alarmed, but I started strong. I knew that this was a detoxifying bar and was ridding my skin of impurities. I worked in a warehouse in 2010, I had a very bad mishap where Drano (lye) was spilled onto my skin, and I swear since that day my body has not been the same. It got everywhere, on my face, chest, legs, and arms. I am very happy to report that this is the best I have felt in a long time. This soap is fantastic, the best I have ever used, hands-down. I’m trying to tell as many people as I can about it because it is phenomenal. It gives you a wonderful boost of confidence. I know it was lacking for years, as the anxiety of the blackheads on my nose would also make me nervous around people and I didn’t want to get too close so they would see them. It was rough, but I powered through. I want you to buy a couple bars, use one on your face and one on your body, they seem to last a while, sometimes two showers a day is my regimen and the bar for my face has lasted more than a few months and he one for my body will last maybe a month and a half. You don’t need many moisturizers afte using this soap, I use a little jojoba oil afterwards, but you do not need much.
I really appreciate you taking the time to read my review of this life-changing soap. It is a product of most excellent quality, made with care, their customer service is impeccable and their great sense of consideration and concern captures the essence of what a great product should be. A product that presents great value, you know you are spending good money on it but it is so worth it because it helps you, and actually saves you money from trying so many products to finally find one that’s right for you. It has been a pleasure, and may this soap be with us for a long time. Thank you, Aspen Naturals.

I love the smell of this soap. I purchased this as a face soap and I’m glad I did. This soap leaves my skin feeling clean and smooth. I have combination skin and my tzone didn’t get oily throughout the day. I will purchase again.

I was looking for a cheaper alternative to a charcoal soap I had been using but loved. I googled the best charcoal bar soaps and this brand popped up. Quick shipping. Love the product and smells great! Leaves my face feeling very soft. I couldn’t be more happier with my purchase!
