| Pros: | Cleared up my acne for a very short time, seemed to help with oily skin. |
| Cons: | After using it for weeks, i've been getting more whiteheads and blackheads than ever.. my acne seems to burn. (Which never used to happen) Didn't seem to work after awhile. |
| Bottom Line: | It's a really cheap product, so it's worth a try .. but for me, it just seemed to make everything 10x worse. |

| Pros: | I had heard alot about this product so I thought I would give it a try. |
| Cons: | I didn't like it. I don't like the smell, or how it is hard to wash off. Also, to anyone who is animal product conscious, this product has animal fat by product in it (sodium tallowate) |
| Bottom Line: | My acne has seemed to spread from my chin only to under my nose and a little on my nose since using this. I have cystic acne. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | Clears up pimples. Gentle. Affordable. Easy. Clears up pimples... |
| Cons: | Not one. Come on people! Any soap in your eyes is going to sting! |
| Bottom Line: | I LOVE BASIS. After year ten years of having several zits all the time and trying everything under the sun including Proactive, to no avail, I finally gave Basis a try at a friend's recommendation and only after giving up hope. It changed my life! If I use it twice a day, my skin stays clear. In rare times that I do get a zit or two, consistency with Basis and dabbing on a little tea trea oil clears it right up. |

| Pros: | Great at washing off all dirt and makeup. Also, helps to shrink pimples. I would highly recommend using this while on "The Regimen." |
| Cons: | Be careful washing off eye makeup with this. It burns terribly when in contact with the eyes. Also, if your skin is very dry, this will dry it out even more. Be sure to use a good moisturizer with this. Oilier skin won't have to worry about drying. |
| Bottom Line: | This soap is at a recession-proof price, it is very effective, and takes of makeup as well. You really don't even need to buy toners or makeup removers with this. Wonderful! |
| Recommended: | Yes |

| Pros: | Basis Sensitive Skin Bar is GREAT for acne prone yet sensitive skin; Works best when used consistently, twice a day; After approx. 1 month, my skin is much clearer; Does not irritate my skin; Gets rid of makeup and oil. |
| Cons: | n/a |
| Bottom Line: | I a 33 year old woman with very sensitive, fair skin that is acne prone. I have tried numerous products over-the-counter as well as dermatologist prescribed and have always come back to this soap. I have also spent a great deal of money on "fancy" natural products from Whole Foods, Sephora, and department stores and this is a superior product. The price is extremely reasonable. I have been back on my Basis soap for a little over a month and my skin is MUCH improved. I am not sure why I ever stopped using it. As with anything else, be patient (e.g. 1 month) and use consistently. If you introduce other products after beginning Basis soap you will never know if it is truly working or not. BELIEVE ME, this soap is WONDERFUL. Hundreds, maybe thousands of dollars later, I have found that simplicity with diet, makeup, and Basis is KEY. |

| Pros: | Excellent soap, decent lather, fragrance free, cheap, easy to find |
| Cons: | Dries skin a bit, lather may not be thick enough for heavy beards |
| Bottom Line: | I have recently found this website and decided to try the regimen. I do not have a serious acne problem, only a few pimples and some red skin. Since using this soap, my pimples have gone away and skin has improved. It does dry the skin so I use some Cetaphil moisturizer. But I can find this locally, always keep a spare bar, and it's much better than the "guy" soaps that are overwhelming in fragrance or cause breakouts. |

| Pros: | The combination with Retin-a Micro and this soap is amazing. The retin-a micro doesn't really dry/peel on my face. The soap helps my face dry and peel even more. The peeling of my skin due to the soap is helping my dark spots lighten up. Amazing! |
| Cons: | Really nothing is wrong with this product. |
| Bottom Line: | It's an awesome way to dry and clean your skin very well. It's inexpensive, and it works. What more can you want? Give it a try, you have nothing to lose! |

| Pros: | Great at taking off makeup, and so cheap. |
| Cons: | Tends to be a bit drying and stings if you get it in your eyes. |
| Bottom Line: | I have to say that I've tried everything. I don't suffer from acne horribly, but get zits here and there depending on the time of the month. Since I stopped using the three step system that costed me approx. $60.00 a month and switched to this mild bar soap my face has dramatically improved and for $2 for every 2 months you can't complain too much about that. Give it a try...what's $2? I saw improvement in my skin in just a couple days. |
