refreshing soap for your face as well as your body [SEP] this black soap bar feels as thick as a brick but feels great on my skin it is made with activated charcoal and has the coloring of charcoal but thankfully not the scent under a hot shower it releases a nice minty scent and the hardy soap appears to less vulnerable to melting away in the soap dish unlike other softer soaps i have used it is made for men but i do not see why women cannot use it as well as it is refreshing it is best used for the face as it cleans out your pores but as i wash my face and body in the shower at the same time it is a perfect face body combination soap
