The scent is not good, and the lingering fragrance remains. The scent may make some people dislike it.

It feels soft after washing. It seems good that I can do it all at once.

오센틱 아프리칸 블랙 솝 [텐저린시트러스]

The only downside is that there's always a little bit left at the end when I pump it, which can get messy.

My skin suddenly became irritated, but this is the only cleanser I can use.
I use it not only on my face but also on my body.
It's gentle, the fragrance is nice, and in the summer, I don't need to use any other body moisturizers as it doesn't leave my skin dry.

The face wash really doesn't lather well. It's soft when used on the body, but the lather is weak, so you end up using a lot.

It's reassuring that it's natural. The biggest advantage is that it can be used by both adults and children.

It is truly gentle, but it doesn't suit oily skin very well.

1. The cleansing power is too weak. When I used it on my face, I didn't feel like it was being properly cleansed, and instead, my acne worsened, so I stopped using it on my face. Similarly, it was not very effective on my back or arm acne.

2. It doesn't lather well, so I have to pump it several times to use it as a body wash. I typically pump it 4 times when using it as a body wash.

3. When used as a shampoo, it leaves my hair feeling greasy.

1. It is very mild. This is the first time I've encountered a soap that is this gentle despite having 'soap' in its name. It is not at all burdensome to use daily. Even after washing, there is a slight oily feeling left on the skin.

2. It has a slightly tangy orange scent.

I don't recommend the shampoo because there's hardly any lather at all, so I'm not sure if it's evenly distributed on my hair, and I end up using way too much.

The lavender scent was nice, but personally, the tangerine is a no-no ㅠㅠ. How should I put it, it's like the scent you get when you boil tangerine peels in a traditional Chinese medicine shop ㅠㅠ..

The Double Wear foundation I use wears off too quickly! Haha I have a cursed sensitive skin that can't use just anything, but haha I was originally using the Sid Moolid Doctor Trup Milk, and after seeing it on home shopping, I tried the sample and if it's not good, I'll return it, but it's so good! I'll definitely repurchase! Haha!

The lather doesn't form very well, so I end up using a lot of the product. As I have oily skin, I need to pump it 4 times when showering, which makes me feel like I'm using it excessively. It's also not particularly inexpensive compared to regular body washes, so it's a bit disappointing when the lather is lacking and I have to use a lot of it.

I purchased this product from a home shopping channel as it was advertised to contain natural ingredients and was being sold in large quantities. It turned out to be better than expected. The fragrance is also nice.^^ 
I had been using Dr. Bronner's Peppermint body wash before, but this one feels a bit more moisturizing and gentle. Since I really like Dr. Bronner's products, it's hard to pick a clear favorite between the two, as they each have their own advantages.
In any case, I'm satisfied with this product and am using it. I'll likely repurchase it when I run out, if they have a home shopping promotion again.

If you use it as a shampoo, be sure to always use a conditioner as well

I wish there was a bit more lather when using it as a shampoo...

Eco-friendly product!! The cleansing is so great~ The best part is that there is no tightness compared to the cleansing power, and my skin feels much softer!

You can use the makeup remover the same way as a cleansing oil

I'm on my third bottle and it's been fine
When using it as a shampoo substitute, there is a slightly stiff feeling

I'm currently using the all-in-one product
It's especially convenient when removing makeup
The waterproof eyeliner and mascara come off very well, which I like

I have sensitive and oily skin, and I found the shea butter and orange oil to be quite irritating. I would caution those with similar skin types to be careful, as the shea butter can cause acne breakouts in oily skin, and the orange oil can lead to excessive oxidation and the growth of dark facial hair.

The product is good as it cleanses well and has no irritating ingredients, but it seems to be most suitable for dry skin types!
I would not recommend it for those with oily, sensitive, or combination skin types.

The formula has a thick, sticky brown texture, so the fresh feeling is a bit lacking. The brown product drips down, making the sink a bit messy.

I was recommended to use this because the ingredients are good. The refreshing citrus tangerine scent is great, and the large size for face and body makes it convenient to use together.

It's a bit expensive^ And it's too large of a volume, so I wonder when I'll finish using it.

I bought it without knowing much about the style on a home shopping channel, but the ingredients are good.
The fragrance is very nice and the makeup wipes off well.
