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

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:

lathers well, washes away completely, leaves you feeling clean.

I have allergies and many things irritate my skin; To the point of psoriasis, yes, I have very sensitive skin. I've tried many soaps and after using one bar I'm hooked.

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

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.

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.

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.

Pros:

Affordable alternative to Cetaphil products. Nice clean fragrance. Good lather. Long-lasting bar. Easy to rinse.

Cons:

Hard to find. When Walgreen's stock runs out, I have to order it via Amazon.

Unbelievably good product...leaves skin feeling soft instead of 'squeaky clean'. You won't find a better moisturizing soap for this price.

Pros:

Super!! My skin is super sensitive to life and as long as I wash this off fairly quickly with luke warm/colder water its great (morning and night! ...My skin is sensitive to hotter waters. Now i need a moisterizer that doesn't hurt it.

Cons:

Hard to find, I stock up when I can find it.

I love it to pieces!

Pros:

Removes my makeup very well, is very affordable, and will last forever.

Cons:

Stings my eyes if it gets in them and is a little drying.

A good cleanser to remove the daily dirt and makeup.
