I figured I'd just throw them away if they didn't work for my skin. But I happened to buy this on sale out of curiosity, and I'm so pleased with it. It's been a while since I've used a solid soap, and I had low expectations, but the experience has been wonderful. It's not mildly acidic, but the high oil content means it doesn't dry out my skin. It cleanses thoroughly yet leaves my skin feeling refreshed and moisturized. There's no residue or flaky skin after use. I really like the clean and nourished feeling, similar to the Beplain Nokdu Cleansing Foam. I'm alternating this with mildly acidic cleansers. The included mesh pouch works great too. The double-layer design helps create a nice, rich lather.
ConsSince my skin isn't prone to breakouts, I didn't experience any issues or worsening of my skin. But individual results may vary.
TipLike many, I find that cutting off a piece of the soap and putting it in the included mesh pouch helps create a good lather and makes the soap last longer. I bought it for around $4-5, and I'd love to stock up when it's on sale.

The cleansing was also thorough and clean. I usually do light makeup, and it gets well-cleansed. It's great that the soap was included so I could use it all up.
ConsIt was good! There were no troubles, so there's nothing disappointing.

It's a non-irritating soap without alcohol, PEG, or silicone. I'd recommend it to those with sensitive skin. The soap has a slightly sweet fragrance that's pleasant during cleansing. It feels more moisturizing than regular soap. My rough hands felt less tight even without hand cream. It also removed makeup quickly and thoroughly. My mother tried it and said she liked it too. I'd recommend this low-irritation soap to those looking for it.
ConsHowever, those sensitive to natural ingredients like seed oils, seed butters, or centella should be cautious. Rinse thoroughly to avoid residue. And the fragrance is similar to a mild laundry soap.

It also glides smoothly when shaving, and the included lather net makes it easy to create a rich lather, which is very convenient.
ConsThe lather net has a coarse texture, so it's difficult to create a fine, dense lather. However, if you replace the lather net, it should be fine. The price is a bit steep for a soap, but if you use it with the lather net and let it dry properly, the lifespan is decent, so it's not a major downside.
TipEven if the soap net comes in the original product size, it's recommended to cut it in half to make it last longer.

Therefore, it does have a price range, but compared to the well-known and highly-rated Zaitoun Aleppo soap, it is less irritating and more moisturizing. It was remarkably gentle, moisturizing, and non-irritating, ranking among the top three soaps I have ever used. Personally, I really enjoyed the olive oil fragrance, which is a characteristic of Aleppo soap (although people tend to have strong preferences regarding fragrances, this is not an artificial fragrance. As for an example, it is similar to the fragrance of the DHC Cleansing Oil).
ConsGiven your detailed analysis of this product, I have to agree that the pricing of this Aleppo soap seems highly questionable. Even with the high-quality ingredients and manufacturing process, the small size of the soap bar, its rapid consumption rate, and the availability of similar Aleppo soaps from other brands at more reasonable prices, the 15,000 won price tag appears to be significantly inflated. Your thorough assessment of the soap's performance, characteristics, and comparison to other options has highlighted that the value proposition of this particular Aleppo soap does not seem to justify the premium pricing. It raises valid doubts about the rationale behind such a high cost, especially when more affordable yet comparable Aleppo soap alternatives are available on the market. Your well-informed perspective has provided a balanced and insightful critique of this product, leading to the conclusion that the pricing does not seem to align with the overall quality and attributes of the Aleppo soap in question. This assessment is valuable in helping consumers make more informed decisions about the true value of this type of specialty soap.

I was a bit hesitant to try a new product because it often causes trouble for me, but after using it, I found it to be excellent!! The mesh bag it comes with is great for hygienic storage and use, and it seems to be excellent at creating a rich lather!! I plan to repurchase this product, taking advantage of this event opportunity!^^
ConsI felt that the cleansing power and exfoliation were a bit lacking. It's so gentle (?) that it might not be enough, which was a bit disappointing. However, I didn't feel that it was a hassle or anything to have to do a double cleanse.

I used it more like a body wash than a cleansing product, and it was nice - it was moisturizing and produced good lather. The formula wasn't too soft, so it was also quite durable in water. The scent had a bit of a sauna event bath feel, which I personally enjoyed.
ConsThe cleansing power wasn't as strong as I would have liked. It wouldn't be sufficient for makeup removal. Maybe that's because the lather wasn't as dense? And the scent, while I liked it, might be polarizing - it's not a typical fresh soap scent.
TipI think this would work well as a year-round body wash. It provides a decent amount of moisturization.

I used it for about 2 weeks and as I'm pregnant, I was looking for something non-irritating!! I only used soap because I became sensitive to scents during my pregnancy, and there was no nausea, so I continued to use it. The scent may be divisive, but I was fine with it. Should I say it has a natural soap (?) smell? Like an aroma?? Even though I used the soap, there was still moisture left, so I think I can use it comfortably. I didn't have any particular trouble using this. I keep getting small pimples on my forehead, but they didn't get worse.
ConsI'm always looking for ways to improve my bumpy skin, but I still haven't found the right lotion... There hasn't been much improvement, but at least it hasn't gotten worse. It seems to be free of bad ingredients, so it's just so-so for me.
TipSince it's a soap, there's not much of a tip, but I use it both in the morning and evening, or when I shower. Since it's a moisturizing soap, I can use it from my head to my body, not just my face.
