Pros
I like that it highlights the full list of ingredients. 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.
Cons
However, 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.

Pros
This is Aleppo soap. 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).
Cons
Given 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.

Pros
(Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review) In the summer, I have oily skin, and from the seasonal change to fall and winter, I have combination skin with blemishes. 1. When I first received the soap, the scent was nice~ It was quite strong, almost like an air freshener(?) Over time (about a month?), the strong scent faded, and a mild grain scent remained. 2. The size was small, but it had a substantial feel, and it came with a soap net, which is nice. It lathers up very well. 3. I used it in the morning and evening, and also tried it as a body wash during showers -> The usage experience was good, and no blemishes popped up The soap is gentle, and after cleansing, my skin feels incredibly soft! As a body wash, it leaves a slightly drying feeling. 3. I used it to remove simple makeup like cushion, mascara (Etude), and eyeliner (Secret Kiss) It took two uses to get a soft, clean feeling, and it removed the eye makeup (mascara, eyeliner), but you still need a makeup remover to fully take it off.
Cons
1. Being a soap, the hygiene management is a bit lacking. 2. Considering the price, the size is a bit small. 3. The scent is milder than a typical grain soap, and it leaves a soft feeling after cleansing, but I'm not sure if it's worth repurchasing...

Pros
The foaming was really nice and soft, enveloping my skin well. The bubble-making pouch(?) helped create even more abundant bubbles, and the scent was just wonderful^^ A healthy fragrance.. haha. It thoroughly removed my makeup, but still left my skin feeling clean and not dry at all - a gentle feeling with powerful cleansing power... However, the Kiss Me mascara was a bit lacking, haha. I usually double cleanse, but I purposely just used the soap to wash my face this time, haha. I've been using it consistently and it's been great^^
Cons
Hmm, there wasn't really anything disappointing, but since I tend to use makeup products that are hard to remove, I'm not sure, but the black mascara was left on my under-eye area. So I took off one star, but I'm actually quite satisfied^^ It cleans out my pores so thoroughly~
Tip
I don't have any special tips, but if you're using a waterproof mascara, I'd recommend using an eye makeup remover first before cleansing, and that should work great^^

Pros
This product is very good for sensitive skin^^ I have been suffering from atopic dermatitis, and this is gentle and moisturizing, which I really like. 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!^^
Cons
I 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.

Pros
The soap seemed to be gentle, which I liked. 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.
Cons
The 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.
Tip
I think this would work well as a year-round body wash. It provides a decent amount of moisturization.

Pros
I was selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and used the product for 2 weeks. 1. Sensitive Skin As I have sensitive skin, it's been a challenge to find the right cleansing foam. I've been using a lot of snail, centella, and madecassoside soaps from Sidmool. After being selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and trying the product for 2 weeks, I found that the soap is gentle and my 'body' feels clean and refreshed without any trouble. 2. Polarizing Fragrance! Personally, I really enjoyed the fresh, herbal scent. The herbal fragrance was very appealing to me!
Cons
1. Miniature Soap Dish The soap dish is too small, and not much lather is produced, which was disappointing. The soap dish seems to be intended for hanging and drying the soap. 2. Sensitive Skin 2 The soap worked well on my body, but not on my face. Looking at my face, the lower part has broken out in pimples and acne. Of course, this is still ongoing... I switched back to the handmade soap I was using before after just 2 days of using this one.
Tip
I recommend purchasing a separate soap dish.

Pros
* This is a review left by a Hwahae Trial Reviewer * As I have dry, sensitive skin, I pay the most attention to moisturization and irritation when evaluating products. The product comes with a mesh net, which is great for creating a rich lather, and it's also convenient to hang it up for storage. Using the mesh net, the lather becomes incredibly voluminous. I used it not only for face cleansing but also as a body wash, and it did not cause any breakouts or allergies, and was completely non-irritating. I was really pleased that the ingredients did not contain any harmful components, but since it's fragrance-free, the scent is not particularly pleasant. It's not completely odorless, and has a similar aroma to oils, which may be divisive, but I personally prefer it over herbal scents. The cleansing power is able to remove some color cosmetics, as shown in the photo. However, waterproof makeup will not be removed, so you'll need to use a dedicated makeup remover.
Cons
I thought it would be more moisturizing than a regular cleanser, but it seems similar. In fact, it left my skin even drier than some low-irritant bubble cleansers. The squeaky-clean feeling was nice, but the dryness was quite disappointing.
Tip
For the Benton soap, it would be better to do a thorough first cleanse with a cleansing water or oil, and then use this as a light second cleanse. It could also work well on days when you've only worn a light sunscreen.

Pros
The foam was great when used in the mesh - it produced a lot of lather which I really liked. The bubbles weren't super dense, but they were light and fluffy. The scent was also very pleasant - a subtle herbal fragrance that wasn't artificial or overpowering. I felt refreshed every time I cleansed with it. The cleansing power was average, but sufficient enough to leave my skin feeling clean without any issues. And I definitely noticed that it helped reduce my oil production - my skin felt fresh and comfortable afterwards, without any irritation.
Cons
This soap didn't work very well for my oily, acne-prone skin. While it did seem to help control oil production, I would often get a few new blemishes after using it. It's a shame because I really liked the formula otherwise. Folks with dry skin may find it a bit drying, so extra moisturizing would be needed. I think this soap works better for oily skin types in the summer rather than the winter.

Pros
It's gentle and free of artificial fragrances and colorants, so even sensitive skin prone to breakouts can use it comfortably. I was hesitant to switch from a cleansing foam to a bar soap, as changing my skincare products usually leads to breakouts for me. But I tried this with faith in the gentle ingredients, and I'm completely satisfied. Just a little water lathers it up nicely, and it cleanses my face thoroughly without drying it out. It's amazing that such a gentle formula can still produce a rich lather. I want to keep using this product.
Cons
None. It's gentle enough to be suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and I'm satisfied using it as a sensitive-skinned person.
Tip
If I leave it on the soap dish, it seems like it would dissolve every time it comes into contact with water, and dust in the air might also settle on it. So I store it in the mesh bag that came with it. The lather is so good that I don't really need the mesh bag, so I just hang the mesh bag on the towel rack and keep the soap in it, which allows the soap to dry out quickly and stay clean.
