Fragrance I usually enjoy the Earl Grey scent. It's not artificial, but has a strong tea aroma, so I feel a bit healthier every time I wash with it. The fragrance disappears after washing. But while washing, the Earl Grey scent briefly puts my mind at ease. 2. Cleansing Power The cleansing power is amazing. Later, I wipe my skin with a toner and check the cotton pads - they're spotless!! I have an oily T-zone and combination skin, and it rinses me squeaky clean. But it also leaves my skin feeling a bit dry afterwards. So I immediately start my skincare routine!! 3. Ingredients We all know Dr. Bronner's has great ingredients, right? I'm not sure if it's because I'm aware of the ingredients, but it seems like my usual stubborn pimples have been less frequent. It's cruelty-free and has kind ingredients, so it gets a big thumbs up!
Cons1. Color Becomes Opaque in Winter The transparent liquid becomes an opaque color at lower temperatures!!! Dr. Bronner's says it's safe, but the changing color makes me wonder if there's an issue... Haha, but since there's no problem, I just keep using it!! 2. Hair Feels Stiff After Using as Shampoo The product instructions say it's safe for men and children to use as a shampoo, so I thought women could use it too! Haha. The scent is great, but... Brushing is absolutely impossible. I can't run my fingers through my hair at all. So I only use it for cleansing and as a body wash now!!!!! Is the lack of major downsides a downside in itself? Haha
TipUse it for cleansing and as a body wash. It lathers well and the Earl Grey scent is so nice. Use a dedicated shampoo for your hair.

I had heard that Dr. Bronner's body soap products are gentle and natural, and when I saw it on the Hwahae post, I applied and was selected. After using it for a month, the best part was the nice fragrance. The scent was not artificial or overpowering, but subtle and pleasant. Just as I had heard, it was also very gentle. Using this product, my itchiness did not worsen, and no new blemishes appeared. The cleansing effect was also good when washing my face. My mother, whose skin and body type can handle just about anything, was also extremely satisfied. She said it was gentle, the scent was nice, and the cleansing was effective.
ConsBased on my own experience, the product was drying. Even though this product is called a body soap and contains moisturizing ingredients, after washing with water, it felt a bit squeaky and soapy. It was refreshing, but also felt slightly drying. Also, because of my atopic dermatitis, I have many wounds on my body, some of which have not healed. When the product touched these wounds, it immediately caused itchiness and a stinging sensation about the size of a little fingernail.

Fragrance The Earl Grey fragrance was not overpowering, which I liked. In the winter, I always apply body lotion to moisturize my skin, and the fragrance blended well without being too heavy. 2. Lather I was worried that without a pump, the lather wouldn't be good, but using a small amount on a shower towel produced a nice lather. A little goes a long way. 3. Acne Soothing I had been stressed out about some small pimples around my neck, but after using this product, they have calmed down significantly. 4. Cleansing Power I've used it to remove facial makeup, and while it doesn't completely remove makeup on its own, it works well as a finishing step after using a cleansing oil or micellar water.
ConsIf it gets in your eyes or genital area, it will feel like hell. When it touches sensitive areas, the stinging and pain is unbearable... is it just me?

I'm not a big fan of Earl Grey, but the scent is not too strong and is subtle, so I felt good after using it. The texture is thin as shown in the photo. But when I added a little water and rubbed it, it lathered up very well, and with a bit more rubbing, a soft, fluffy lather was created. A small amount was enough to create sufficient lather, so it was easy to use. * When the cleanser is in the container, the ingredients on top seem to settle to the bottom. It would be better to shake it a few times before use.^ My facial skin is very sensitive, so I didn't use it on my face, only on my body. Just in case, I tried it on my feet first, and it was really refreshing. Even in the winter when my feet sweat a lot, after using this cleanser, they felt drier and more comfortable. The next day, I used a castile soap all over my body, and it cleansed well and felt refreshing. However, it did seem a bit drying, so I immediately applied a body lotion. But in the winter, any cleanser can be drying, so it's a pass! I think it would be better to use in warmer weather. When I used it on my body, it felt a bit drying, and since my scalp is also sensitive, I only used it on my hair, not directly on my scalp. After using it as a shampoo and then my usual conditioner, it was fine. For those who don't have a sensitive scalp, you could probably use it all over.
ConsOther than my calves feeling a bit dry after using it, there's nothing particularly bad.
TipI happened to pass by Olive Young and saw they were having a sale. It seems I can purchase it cheaper in-store than online. When using it for cleansing, it's better if your hands don't directly touch it, so a rich lather is preferable. For castile soap, you can get a fluffy, rich lather by just adding a few drops of water to the amount you've scooped out and then rubbing it.

This is becoming increasingly important for many people these days - no animal testing!! Yay! I'll come back and update with more thoughts after using it for a longer period of time!
Cons1. Texture Since it's winter, the product has hardened and formed some granules. It doesn't completely solidify like coconut oil, but there are some small granules that appear, and in colder temperatures, the top layer can harden a bit. However, this doesn't really cause any major issues when using it. The appearance may not be the most aesthetically pleasing, and someone might accidentally discard it thinking "What is this?" if they come across the hardened granules while cleaning. 2. Stinging in the Eyes It's normal for soap to sting the eyes, but this product seemed to get in my eyes more often and caused a very strong stinging sensation. I had also bought the Uriage cleansing water, which was supposed to be non-stinging, but I found it to be quite irritating, so it's possible I'm just more sensitive. 3. Packaging Coming from pump-style packaging, I initially had some difficulty getting used to scooping out the product. It seems the hardening in winter, or perhaps an effort to minimize environmental impact, is the reason for this type of packaging.
Tip1. When I don't have a sponge, I cup my hands to scoop out the cleanser, add a few drops of water, and vigorously rub my hands together to create a nice lather. 2. In the winter, I gently cup the product in my hands, then swirl it around up and down to dispense it onto my hands - works like a charm! 3. When showering without a shower puff, the product just keeps getting absorbed, so using a shower puff is essential to conserve the product. 4. If I apply the lather to my face without wetting my face first, it doesn't rinse off properly.

The best part was the scent, which was somehow a healthy scent? Other products had a strong perfume-like scent that I disliked, but this one had a nutty, savory fragrance that I liked! I was also surprised by the rich lather. The cleansing power is better than other regular foam cleansers, and it's particularly good for use as a body wash. Considering the price, I recommend it👍🏻
ConsMy skin tends to get dry in the winter, so the slightly squeaky clean feeling and the slightly tightening sensation were a bit disappointing. Also, when it got in my eyes while washing, it stung a bit, which was a downside.😥

First and foremost, the best part is that even though I have sensitive, dry skin and atopy, I didn't have a single blemish after cleansing. The lather is just right, and it's not irritating at all when cleansing, so I used it without worry. Plus, I'm sensitive to scents, but it's not overpowering at all, just a very subtle fragrance, which I love so much.
ConsFor those who dislike the squeaky clean feeling after cleansing, this might not be the best fit! There is a bit of a squeaky clean feeling.
TipI recommend using it lightly for morning cleansing!

But when I tried this product with my sibling, it was a whole different story! My sibling is someone who really scrutinizes every single ingredient, so we both tried it out and were absolutely delighted and happy with the results! The fragrance was not artificial at all, and it was very pleasing to us. But the best part was the refreshing, squeaky-clean feeling we had after washing our faces. I used to think I could use just about anything, but after trying this product, my mindset changed. I realized, 'Ah, this is why good products are so good!' My sibling was so impressed that they asked me about it and decided to switch to this product as well. I'm planning to use it on my hair and body too today.
ConsIf the packaging is disappointing, then it's a bit of a letdown! But I think it would be very useful to transfer it into a pump bottle and use it that way.

I used the Baby Mild one before, and now I'm using this product that I received as an event item. Once you use this one, you can't use anything else. First of all, the ingredients are gentle, and the cleansing power is outstanding. You can use it on your face and body, but it cleanses the face so thoroughly that it removes makeup in one go - it's an all-in-one. For daily use, it may be a bit too strong, so it's better as a body cleanser. The scent is really nice too. It's not too strong, and since it's a natural fragrance, it's fine. I can't use the detergent-based cleansers sold in stores..I don't like artificial fragrances either. I highly recommend this. It has a thorough cleansing power, but it leaves you feeling clean, not squeaky-clean.😁
ConsYou have to use this product with the foam dispenser. But there's a sinking ingredient? in it It gets clogged and doesn't come out well. The foam dispenser is the problem.

First of all, the scent is really nice :) It's not too strong, but has a subtle Earl Grey aroma that makes me feel good when I'm washing up! The cleansing power is also good. I mainly use it as a body wash, and when I use a loofah, the lather becomes really dense and rich! I liked the squeaky-clean feeling of being washed with Dr. Bronner's when I was using it.
ConsThose of us with delicate facial skin probably shouldn't use it as a facial cleanser ㅜ Let's leave the squeaky-clean washing to those with sturdy, oily skin types ㅜ
TipI use this not only as a body wash, but also ㅋㅋ when hand-washing my Heattech clothes! When you swish Heattech in water with Magic Soap, not only can you wash it clean, but you can also enjoy a great fragrance from the Heattech ㅋㅋ
