Fresh Farmacy

Not sure why the other reviews state this doesn't lather.. while it doesn't have a ton of bubbles per se, it always lathers enough when I rub in the palm of my hands with some water and then I can apply to my face. It doesn't dry my skin out and leaves me feeling fresh without any overpowering smell. I like to break off smaller pieces to take on camping/hiking trips. Very economical - one bar lasts me many months (I use it at least once a day). I intend to use this for a long time!

Great for sensitive dry skin that has occasional breakouts. Soothing, gentle, leaves dry skin smooth. I'm in my mid-thirties with sensitive skin that's extra dry skin throughout the harsh Canadian winters. I use this nightly followed by full of grace lotion bar and use mask of magnaminty 2-3 times a week. My kids (ages 6-10) use this & full of grace too when their skin (cheeks/chin mostly) flare up with rash.

was trying to be more eco-friendly with this naked product .. I can hardly use it because it barely gets onto my skin when I try and rub it in. it's super ineffective and has been sitting in my shower for months.

I've been using this face wash for ~ 4 years now and I used to LOVE it, it was seriously the only thing that worked for my hormonal acne. The formula? changed and now it doesn't lather, and I have to scrape slivers of it to get it to dissolve in water at all. SO SAD about this. Please revisit the formula so it lathers and reacts to water again!

This was my first time using this product. Since I have started using the fresh farmacy I have had zero breakouts! My face feels so clean after using it. I have also used it on other problem areas when I get breakouts and have seen a huge improvement in my skin. I paired this product with the Breath of fresh air toner and they make a great duo!!!

I've been using this for 6 years and it's kept my skin clear and healthy this entire time. I recommend it all the time and I still use it now!

This was my first time using fresh farmacy, and my first time using a face bar instead of a liquid cleanser for my face. I love the detail, color, and fresh smell of the bar. I think it has a modest lather. I can't quite put my finger on it but something leaves me unsatisfied after using it. I don't think I have the correct words for it, perhaps something about leaving my skin squeaky clean so much so that if feels dry? I do think using it generously helps lessen the feeling of dryness, which I only figured out halfway though using it (this was not an intuitive discovery for me). The integrity of the bar has held up, it is still one solid bar even though I am more than halfway through. Also, the pattern on the front was really nice at the beginning, it made washing my face much more fun. I have mixed feeling about weather I will continue to use this, but in terms of achieving a clean face, it certain does the job. I would say I have normal skin and it does feel nicer overall, however I did include various other new products to my skin care routine so I can't attribute it all to this one product. Overall I think the pros outweigh the cons (that I can't even quite put my finger on to adequately describe).

Great formulation for my sensitive skin and perfect for winter as it doesn't over-dry. I've been using this for about two years now and will keep buying! The only down-side is that the new formulation I've bought the past couple times is a bit softer so I feel like I'm sometimes wasting product as it ends up all over my hands when using.

I've been using this product for years now! I just recently bought my first bar in a long time however, so this is my first time having one with the new formula and shape! Mine lathers up incredibly well! Even better than the old formula ones ever did. I personally feel like I'm getting way more product out of it than I did with the old bar. It even still makes my face feel incredibly smooth and soft almost a full day after! I notice the scent is different now. I personally preferred the old scent, but the new one still smells nice. The shape is pretty large and a bit awkward. I can't get it to fit in the lush square tin without cutting down quite a bit. I personally recommend storing it in the fridge and letting it dry after uses to help it last longer and keep its shape! I don't quite understand all the backlash over the new formula? I think it's even better than it use to be!

I definitely notice a positive change in my skin when I use this. My face appears less red and it does calm my sensitive skin. I do agree with reviews that say this bar is dry, but I didn't find it to be unbearably so.
