User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Great for people with sensitive skin, but why antibacterial?
First of all, let me say this soap basically made my eczema go away. No more steroid creams or break out rashes. I’ve been using harsher soaps (dial, ivory) my whole life, and when a dermatologist diagnosed me with eczema in my late 20s, I thought that I’d be applying steroid creams on and off the rest of my life for this “controllable disease.” Not so. After controlling the first few rashes, I started using cetaphil bar soap in the shower and the liquid facial cleanser at night, and 6 months later, I have yet to have a recurrence.
However, Amazon stopped selling the standard bar and decided to jump on the antibacterial bandwagon. I see this as an additional chemical, Triclosan, that has dubious benifit can can cause possible harm– wikipedia can tell you more about this. As somebody who has a sensitive skin condition, I do not need additional ingredients in soap. Yes you can buy the non antibacterial bar on amazon, but since it is not carried by amazon, the price comes out to be 75% more. Crummy.
4 Stars Works well
This product was recommended by my son’s skin doctor because he was getting sores on his skin & since the use of the soap it has diminished significantly

5 Stars Skin Soothing Soap Succeeds
I used to use this soap during the winter when the effects of heating and cold air made for tender, easily chafed skin. But time and needs change and I now use this product year-round. This soap is gentle to the skin and does not leave much residue as those commercial dry-skin cleansers. This is the anti-bacterial version although there is a ‘plain’ version. It’s expensive as soap goes, but I have found that the six-pack by-subscription set up Amazon provides brings the per bar cost way below what you’ll find on the pharmacy shelves.
There’s little fragrance [unlike most commerical soaps] to irritate either the skin or the olfactory. Using a wash cloth, it makes rich suds and it rinses clean. Beware placing it in on a soap holder in the direct stream of your shower. Because it is a super-fatted soap it will wash away before your eyes if you aren’t careful about placement.
5 Stars Good deal
This bar soap is great. As I have a little baby I need to use some antibacterial soap, and this one is the best. As well I use it to wash my hands and in a shower as well. It is moisturizing. I think it make acne go away.
