Take Care 10% Sulphur Soap 190g Bar

Great for back acne and face acne. This is a medicinal product due to the sulphur. As it contains sulphur, it unsurprisingly smells like sulphur. This smell is actually unpleasant and your bathroom and towel will smell of it for a while after you shower and dry. It does not stain. the smell does not linger on your skin. You will get used to it after a few weeks. Do not expect this soap to smell of flowers or be a cosmetic or pampering type product, despite descriptions I've seen of 'flowers of sulphur' being used to make this product. Im pretty sure no flowers were used at all.This is a small price to pay as it has helped me greatly reduce my back acne from multiple painful boils to almost nothing with just a few times a week. I leave the lather on for a minute or two before washing off on the affected areas. After its success on my back I used on my face and it worked on my face acne too. It can dry the skin a bit though so you may need a moisturiser. One bar lasts forever though. I started using mine in January and it eventually ran out in May. Very impressive!

I decided to write this review after a while, as I wanted to give the product time to see if it really did do anything for me. I want to start off with a little introduction to my skin care.I am in my early 30's and suffer from accute acne and have done so for 16 yrs, I have used everything you could possibly think of, steriod creams, medicated acne cleanser's, clarisonic, etc......... I started to take Dianette tablets a year ago as a last resort, I found it helped other things like controlling my greasy hair but it wasnt making a huge difference to my skin. after being on it for 9 months, I was getting frustrated and tried finding something else that may be effective. While shopping on amazon for a facial cream, I noticed on the bottom of my screen "amazon recommends" product, it was a bar of soap. I looked at the ratings on it and they were not far off from 5 star. I read the reveiws and they were fantastic, I decided to give it a go as I was spending silly amount of money on cleansers that were not doing anything for my pocket nor my skin. I have been using this bar for 7 weeks now and I still have more than half the bar left!!! ok, now lets get to the point.....the first few weeks I didnt notice much apart from the fact my old spots were drying fast, after that I noticed my breakouts were less and now 7 weeks on almost non existent!! it has definitely helped keep my skin grease free. I would recommend using a oil free moisturiser with this, one which is also frafrance free, as the fragrance in all products esp the ones which are artificial frangrances provokes breakouts. I would highly recommend this item for all ages and definitely for people with severe to moderate acne.

I've had horrible itchy, lumpy skin problems for years. Decades, in some cases. Various diagnoses include demodex follicultis and sebhorreic dermatitis. The skin on my facial T-zone, chest, arms, scalp and elsewhere has been mottled, blotchy, scaly, livid, sore, etc, etc. I've been through so many GP & dermatologist prescriptions and self-prescribed treatments, I can't begin to list them. That includes everything from topical and oral antibiotics to high-strength steroidal creams.A 'why not' moment led me to try this soap. After showering with it - using it on both my face and body every day - I was astounded to find that almost all my years-long skin problems had totally vanished in less than a week. My facial complexion is completely transformed and I've never looked better. The advanced oiliness around my nose and cheeks has all but disappeared, along with blotchiness and red patches around my hairline, ears and elsewhere. A particularly angry, recurrent patch of dermatitis on my chest has completely gone without leaving so much as a trace, as has lifelong pimply 'gooseflesh' along the backs of my arms. All gone! I am humbled :-)Of course, everyone's skin is different. But this stuff certainly works on mine. I'm absolutely delighted that after so much discomfort and experimentation, the answer to most of my problems turned out to reside in a simple, inexpensive bar of pleasantly-scented soap. Unreservedly recommended, and at £3.95 a pop it's not going to leave you out on a financial limb if it's not as effective for you as it has been for me.

This was bought as a get back to basic natural soap as I had that day been put on antibiotics long term for my acne(I am in my 30s) and told no medicated soap etc will make any difference, so I thought why not try a natural soap designed for acne, after reading reviews I decided to give it a go. I have had the bar for around 2 weeks now, I am using it at night time to wash my acne ridden places(please note I was diagnosed with nodule acne), and a ph balanced soap in mornings. I can definitely see the difference it is making to my skin(too soon for it to be meds), , I have has very few new spots appear and the ones I do have dry out very quickly, my skin is healing and feeling smooth again. To me(and my family) the soap smells like burnt matches, not unpleasant at all, it lingers on your skin, so make sure you are ok with the smell. The actually bar is going to last me a long time, I am so pleased with it as I have spent a fortune on other products that don't work...this is reasonable priced and does the job....you must give it a try!!
