Pros
The fragrance is delightful and it lathers up nicely. When I wash my face in the morning, it leaves my skin feeling moisturized without any tightness. I love that it comes with a magnetic soap holder, not just the soap itself.
Cons
There's absolutely nothing to complain about. I'll probably buy it with my own money when I run out.
Tip
While using a foam net creates more lather, I preferred working up the foam in my hands as the soap tends to break into smaller pieces in the net.

Pros
The all-in-one aspect was the best part! It lathers well, and I was worried it might wear down quickly, but contrary to my concerns, it's firm and doesn't get mushy. It's also gentle, and personally, I loved the refreshing scent. After using it, there was no tightness, and it rinsed off cleanly. The rich lather meant I didn't need to work up a foam separately. With other shampoos, I always had itchiness when my scalp was dry, but after using this product, that never happened, and my scalp felt nicely hydrated.
Cons
For me, there weren't any downsides, except maybe that my hair felt slightly less smooth? It's far from causing dryness though.

Pros
The best part is being able to cleanse, shampoo, and shower all at once. Personally, I love the scent - it lingers in the bathroom long after shampooing and showering. After cleansing and showering, my skin feels hydrated. Miraculously, I noticed less hair fall after using the green bar for shampooing! I had tried a specialized anti-hair loss shampoo recommended by a friend due to unexplained hair loss, but saw no real results. Surprisingly, the Celedoc Cica Green Bar seems effective for hair loss. Plus, it seems to give my hair more bounce even with just shampooing. The included drying net works great as a shower puff, making it convenient for body washing without any discomfort. It lathers well, and my skin feels less dry after showering. I was worried this all-in-one product would run out quickly, but the green bar is quite solid and doesn't soften easily, so it should last longer than expected.
Cons
The soap holder that came with it wasn't really necessary, so I didn't use it. For a company promoting zero waste and minimalism, it would be better to send holders only to those who really need them. While using it as an all-in-one shampoo works great, static after drying hair seems unavoidable. I hope they could develop a shampoo-specific bar that solves the static issue. Those who prefer a squeaky clean feeling after cleansing might have mixed feelings about how this feels on the skin.
Tip
The soap looks luxurious and comes in a sophisticated, high-end package, making it great for gifting. While results may vary individually, I highly recommend those struggling with hair loss to give this a try. You might even want to subtly gift it to friends dealing with hair loss.

Pros
※I have sensitive, oily skin with blemishes on my face and body ✔Scent: It has a typical cica scent, like fresh herbs. If you're not sensitive to fragrances, you should be able to use it without any issues! ✔Texture: This soap leaves your skin feeling moisturized after use, not dry! It's not recommended for those who prefer a squeaky-clean feeling. ✔Blemishes: While it didn't cause any noticeable irritation on my face or body, I didn't see significant soothing effects either. It doesn't seem particularly effective for calming blemishes. 💎Overall: I recommend this for people who dislike the drying effect of regular soaps and are looking for a moisturizing option. However, I wouldn't recommend it to those specifically seeking to soothe blemishes.
Cons
It's disappointing that it doesn't seem effective for calming blemishes. The soap also seems to soften and wear away faster than expected.

Pros
I've always had a prejudice against soap bars because all the ones I've used before left my skin dry. But this one wasn't as drying as I expected! In fact, when I used it on my body, it left my skin feeling pleasantly moisturized - not slippery, but just the right amount of hydration! While it was slightly drying for my face, it lathers up really well. Above all, I loved how convenient it was to use as an all-in-one product.
Cons
The scent is a mix of lemon and grass, which isn't really my favorite, so that was a bit disappointing. Also, I'm not sure if it has any soothing effects. Overall, it seems like a decent, no-frills soap that's good for everyday use!

Pros
The lather is fantastic. I had a preconception that a solid soap-like product would be hard and inconvenient to use, but it actually creates foam faster than other cleansing foams (that require hand friction). The foam is pleasantly dense and soft, causing no irritation to the skin. Eco-friendly packaging. I've heard that soap-based cleansers are better for the environment than regular cleansing foams, though I'm not entirely sure... Leaves skin feeling hydrated. Honestly, for someone who prefers a squeaky-clean finish, it felt a bit lacking, but... there's definitely a sense of refined skin texture. My skin didn't have any major reactions, and since my skin condition is currently pretty good, I can't really comment on its effectiveness for blemish relief yet.
Cons
The scent isn't particularly pleasant, so I wouldn't recommend it as a shampoo or body wash. Still, it might be useful for treating back acne. Somehow it feels drying... Right after cleansing it doesn't feel dry, but even with my usual skincare routine, the dryness doesn't seem to go away easily. The stand they provided - I'm not sure why they included it... While it's nice for hanging the product, given that they're promoting eco-friendly packaging, it feels like an unnecessary addition.
Tip
Just install the stand and hang it in a mesh bag, haha!

Pros
The scent was a bit unfamiliar to me, but I loved how my skin felt so hydrated after washing. It left such a pleasant sensation.
Cons
I haven't found any downsides yet. However, if I had to say something, I suppose it could be a bit firmer in texture.

Pros
Scent - When I first opened the product, there was a slight herbal scent that made me hesitant. However, when I actually washed my face, it released a woody aroma that helped reduce stress and gave me a healing sensation. I usually use foam cleansers followed by soap when washing my face. While I enjoyed the squeaky-clean feeling, it often left my skin feeling tight. This soap, however, leaves my skin smooth and hydrated after cleansing.
Cons
Due to seasonal changes, mask-wearing, and makeup use, my skin developed redness and blemishes, and my skin texture worsened. Using this soap alone didn't completely clear up these blemishes, so I had to use additional skincare products to calm them down.
Tip
On days when I'm tired, after completing my cleansing routine, I put this soap in a foam net to create rich lather. Then I wash my face in a massaging motion, which helps alleviate fatigue. The woody scent is absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend it for the fragrance alone!

Pros
First off, I loved how the tea tree scent wafted out even before opening the product. The cleansing process was gentle, not overly squeaky, and after rinsing and patting dry, my skin still felt hydrated without any tightness. The lather is quite rich. I've been wearing less makeup lately due to mask-wearing and was unsure if I should use a foam cleanser, but this soap resolved my dilemma.
Cons
While I didn't find it softening as quickly as others might, possibly because I'm used to softer soaps, it's true that it's more pliable than regular soap. I'd recommend storing it in a holder or mesh bag.
Tip
While it lathers well just using your hands, I recommend using a foam net to create an even richer lather before cleansing.

Pros
1. The scent is absolutely delightful - I could smell the wonderful aroma even before opening the box! After washing my hands, the lingering fragrance made me think this would be perfect as a body soap. 2. Being mildly acidic, it's gentle and moisturizing. Unlike soaps that leave your skin feeling tight and dry, this one leaves a soft, supple feeling with a nice glow after patting dry. 3. It lathers up beautifully without much effort. 4. With houttuynia cordata and centella asiatica as main ingredients, plus citric acid and hyaluronic acid, it seems promising for blemishes and back acne. The antioxidants should also help prevent skin aging.
Cons
1. The presence of natural oils, linalool, and limonene might make it unsuitable for those with allergies. I personally only use products free from 20 specific ingredients and common allergens. 2. While I'm a frequent soap user, this one is on the softer side. It cracked as soon as I put it in the soap holder. If it falls during use, I'll need to use the provided soap net. 3. While 'cica' usually means soothing, the combination with acids and fragrances might not suit sensitive facial skin. Update after 2 weeks: Surprisingly, when I used it for face washing in the shower out of laziness, my skin improved dramatically. The acids seem to be working wonders - my skin feels hydrated and looks brighter.
Tip
As winter approaches, using this soap with its wonderful fragrance in a warm shower after work will be incredibly relaxing - no need for separate aromatherapy oils. The included soap holder is quite luxurious, and given the soap's softness, using it with the holder or soap net would be ideal. I'm grateful for the thoughtful packaging, and I think this soap would make a lovely gift. It seems to be in a similar category to Zum bars.
