I have been cleansing my face with a sulphur bar soap called Grandpas Thylox for about 6 months. It has my complexion looking good.....best it has been in 35 years. The product is not loaded with chemicals either, which is good for me since I have ultra sensitive skin. I was using a prescription sulfur/sodium sufacetimide cleanser for 12 months prior and it was OK but still seemed to block my pores a bit. The only side effect I've had with the Thylox is that it can cause some drying/flakiness. It took a little trial and error to hone in on my frequency of use, how long to leave on, etc.
Has anyone used the sulphur bar soap for washing the face? Is it any good? Any side effects other than the sulphur-specific smell? Thank you
It's fairly good, though I prefer leave-on lotions.
You can get dryness. I don't think sulfur stains clothes, but it could tarnish jewelery.
