The scrubber shape was especially great at loosening the trapezius muscle area. Personally, the sandalwood fragrance also felt luxurious, making the shower experience more pleasant. It gave the feeling of being at a spa, even when self-managing. The biggest advantage is being able to do body care while saving time. Being able to massage during the shower time was really great.
Cons- Cons: It seems like the shape needs to be maintained with consistent use, and it would be good to store it properly (on a soap dish, etc.) and dry it after showering to maintain it well! It's not a major downside, but there are some things to be mindful of when managing the soap.
TipIf you massage from the neck towards the trapezius area when there is a slight moisture, you can get an even more pleasant feeling! I massaged from the neck > trapezius > collarbone > armpit and along the arm line, up to the lymph nodes, and felt my whole body relax after the shower!

In reality, the sandalwood scent is neutral and can be used by people of all ages. Just like in the picture, the shoulder massage feels really refreshing. The lather forms well, and it's a unique feature compared to other body soaps that you can use it for a scrubbing massage. Addition: Using the sharpest part, massaging the armpits is really great... I was just doing shoulder and leg massages, but doing the armpits is truly orgasmic.
ConsIt's still okay for now, but I feel like it might start to crumble after some time. Also, when I used other body soaps, there was an additional plastic wrap before the case, but this one was just the soap, which was a bit surprising. And just like others said, it's really slippery.
TipInstead of a soap dish, I attached a soap holder to the wall. This works better for this soap as well as other soaps to prevent it from getting worn down!

It was an eco-friendly paper packaging without any plastic, and the scent was so nice~ Even before unwrapping the paper cushioning, the subtle and luxurious sandalwood fragrance had already permeated, making me feel good. So it seems very suitable to give as a gift without excessive packaging. Just like the gentle and long-lasting scent of body wash or shampoo, this ampoule stone also permeates the entire body with fragrance as you lather it. So it seems to last longer than perfume or body mist. It's a scent I personally really like, and this product is truly great. The ampoule is tightly packed, so the lather itself has a bouncy, elastic feel! It's not as voluminous and bubbly as a cleansing foam, but it's dense and rich. So even though my skin is generally dry, I didn't feel the need to immediately apply lotion after washing. I think this soap would be suitable for those with generally dry, dehydrated skin like me. The ampoule makes it a bit slippery, but it rinsed off quickly and cleanly, without leaving any residue. The charcoal? ingredient seems to give a refreshing feel, more so than other body washes. I think I'll feel even more refreshed in the summer. The cleansing power is good!
ConsWhen I first used it, the bar soap shape was quite firmly gripped, so I was able to press and massage the areas on my shoulders, thighs, and calves that felt stiff while showering. While it may not be able to fully relieve muscle tension (since it is still a soap), the blood circulation/lymph node massage seemed effective. And in terms of grip, since I have relatively small hands and weak grip strength, I almost dropped the soap a few times. It's quite slippery, so it's not easy to hold on to. For those who dislike the slippery feeling, this product may not be suitable and could be a point of contention.
TipI would recommend this product for those with combination to slightly dry skin types. The dense, rich lather and good moisturizing properties make it suitable for people like me with slightly dry skin. As for a tip, it seems crucial to properly dry the soap. To use the bar shape for a long time, it would be best to use a soap dish or drying rack to keep it well-dried.

Fragrance: The sandalwood scent was calming and relaxing during my shower, with a natural and sophisticated aroma that had no strong likes or dislikes. ยฐ 2. Efficacy and Effects: My body type is dry with chicken skin. If I use body washes with a lot of surfactants or don't apply lotion after showering, my chicken skin becomes itchy, reddened, and worsens. I only use body washes with natural ingredients, and I tried the Ampelstone for 2 weeks. The Ampelstone contains 15,000mg of bifida ampoule, which hydrates dry skin, and it has mineral-rich Dead Sea salt and charcoal that help absorb impurities and sebum, effectively soothing my troubled and chicken skin. Although I didn't expect much massage effect from the bar shape, the grip felt good, and the soap remained firm even after multiple uses, providing a gentle massaging effect.
ConsThere was almost nothing disappointing about using the Ampelstone, but if I had to point out one thing, it would be that when I wanted a stronger massage effect on my knotted shoulder or calf muscles and rubbed the soap too hard, it would sometimes slip out of my hands and drop a few times. Although the firm shape of the soap didn't get deformed easily, it was still inconvenient when I dropped it. Personally, I think having a plastic handle part would help prevent it from slipping.
TipWhen using it, try not to rub too hard to get the massage effect, as it's not a real scrub bar. Gently press and massage it instead to get the best results.

Fragrance***** When I first received the product, the fragrance from the product box was incredibly good, but when I took out the soap and smelled it, it had a hotel amenity scent, which surprised me ใ ใ . When washing, the sandalwood scent comes out subtly. The scent is so subtle that you have to sniff it on your skin to smell it. Of course, the fragrance disappears when you apply the body lotion ใ ใ . I originally like woody scents, so I was satisfied with the scent when washing. 2. Usage ->Overall, it was good! The product description mentioned something about being coated, and I think I understand it now. It has a feeling between slipperiness and smoothness, and the coating disappears when you wash it with water. It's not a scrub product, but it gently removes dead skin and impurities, and the cleansing power is good. ->Lather*** It's not enough to just lather it with your hands, so I used a lather net and it was much better! But then the soap gets used up much faster ใ ใ .. ->Moisturizing*** It's about the same as a regular body wash! It's not too dry or overly moisturizing? If I had to rate the moisturizing effect as high, medium, or low, I'd say it's about 'medium'. ->Exfoliating effect?* It was okay to use on my shoulders or arms ^^ .. But it slips in my hands, so it's hard to utilize the exfoliating shape of the soap. It slipped and fell, and the soap got dented... As the soap gets smaller, it becomes harder to use.. Personally, I think it's better to use a body wash and then use a loofah for massage ใ ใ
Cons->Purchased with my own money? Cost-effectiveness? Depending on the user, but I like a lot of lather, so using the lather net, the soap gets worn down and washed away quickly.. I think it would be difficult to use it for a month, so the cost-effectiveness isn't that great for me ใ ใ *****It would be great as a gift, either to give or receive! The packaging is high-end, the fragrance is good, and you can use it without worrying about the price, so it would be a pleasant experience ใ ใ
TipSince the soap slips in my hands, it was difficult to use, but as I tried to grab it carefully, as shown in the photo, I was able to hold it without much effort and use it stably without dropping it! Just hold the top part with your thumb and index finger, and wrap the remaining three fingers around the bottom part.

At first, I liked the woody scent so I kept it in my room and took a big whiff (haha), and the fragrance was really strong then. But when I used it in the shower, the scent seemed to become more subtle. However, after I finished showering, the sandalwood scent lingered softly on my skin, which was fascinating and pleasant! (Maybe the strong scent was because I scrubbed quite vigorously and for a long time! haha) โญ๏ธUsage Experience While using it, it felt very soft and moisturizing, but after rinsing it off, the finish was more squeaky clean like regular soap. I'd like to let those who prefer a more moisturizing finish know about this aspect. During use, it felt very moisturizing. โญ๏ธAs a Scrubber? To be honest, before using it, I thought 'If it's a soap, it'll definitely get soggy and fall apart in water. How can I use it like a scrubber?' But it was actually quite sturdy when I used it. So I was able to firmly scrub my shoulder and neck muscles, and it didn't disintegrate. However, those who are used to using regular scrubbers may be disappointed, as I couldn't scrub as vigorously (I couldn't press too hard either).
Consโญ๏ธDownsides It was a bit difficult to store. Unless I bought a separate soap dish, I didn't have a good place to put it. I ended up putting it in a soap net and hanging it, but I'm not sure how others would handle the storage. And since the entire thing is soap, it gets slippery, so I couldn't really scrub my legs properly. If it had a hole or loop, it would be easier to hold onto.
TipFirst of all, since it's in the shape of a scrubber, it's difficult for anyone other than a long-armed primate to use on your back. So you'll need to either work up some lather separately or go through an extra step of using a body wash. Also, you need to rinse it thoroughly to avoid any residue. If you just want a gentle shower that loosens up your shoulder and arm muscles a bit, then this would be a good purchase.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe soap has a rich, creamy lather that indicates it contains a lot of serum. As I usually like to create a generous amount of lather when body cleansing, I found the lather to be excellent. The sandalwood scent is quite strong. The fragrance lingers even when the soap is just left sitting, so the scent permeates the surrounding area. I personally enjoy this scent, and have purposefully left the soap in the shower to allow the fragrance to diffuse throughout the day. The soap seems to be quite firm in texture. I was worried it might become too soft and mushy when pressed, but it maintains its shape well. It appears I'll be able to use it for a decent amount of time before it starts to wear down. However, I'm curious to see if the firmness will be sustained even as the soap gets used up and thinner. Some other soaps I've used tend to become more delicate and crumbly as they get used up.
ConsAs it is a bar soap, it can be a bit slippery. It's also quite thick in texture. Rather than feeling like it's massaging the muscles, it's more akin to a lymphatic drainage massage when rubbing it on the skin. The strong scent, which I mentioned as a positive in the previous review, can also be a downside. While I personally enjoy the sandalwood fragrance, my roommate does not. And since the scent permeates the entire shower area, I've had to keep the soap in a separate case to contain the aroma.
TipI find the soap can be a bit slippery to use, so I've been wearing shower gloves when using it. Since the towel I normally use has a glove-like shape, I've found that wearing it helps prevent slipping and allows me to create an even better lather.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI thought the packaging could have provided more fragrance, and if needing to store it, I was concerned about moisture exposure. Aesthetically, it was also a bit lacking. While improvements could be made, personally I would still consider purchasing this product again in its current state. The value proposition is good, and overall it was a satisfactory product!
ConsAs I mentioned earlier, the massage function of the exfoliating pad is something I'm not sure it can fully deliver on. To be honest, a regular round body soap of similar size could probably provide a similar massage experience. Or if the size was adjusted to be a bit smaller, it might be easier to grip and massage with. ++ For those sensitive to fragrances, this product might be a bit daunting to use, as the fragrance is quite strong. In a way, this could be seen as both a pro and a con. Personally, as I don't have sensitive skin, I absolutely loved the fragrance!
TipI would recommend trying it with a loofah as well :) The lather it creates is absolutely amazing, haha. However, using a loofah means you'll lose some of the massage functionality...

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsIngredients and Fragrance - The soap lather is incredibly dense and creamy, like snail mucus. The feel when massaging is so pleasant. But then, the rinsing is incredibly refreshing. I love sandalwood scent, so the fact that Dr. Brush only uses sandalwood is perfect for my preference. The lingering fragrance lasts long, so I can use it with a fragrance-free body lotion or gel-type lotion. It's not drying, so I don't even need a cream. Packaging - 100 out of 100. The paper packaging without plastic is eco-friendly and looks very premium. It would make a great gift. Exfoliating Pad Shape - This is addictive. I just can't stop massaging with it. It feels so cooling on the shoulders and calves. However... the downside is that it gets smaller over time. Please make an identical replacement. It doesn't melt, so I can use it together with the soap.
ConsSince it's a soap, it gets slippery, so I want to apply a bit more pressure for the massage, but it keeps slipping away... The exfoliating pad is so tempting though.
TipThe lather is great and soft. You can just lightly wet your hands and massage, and the cleansing effect is good. Before rinsing, try massaging the shoulders and calves with the exfoliating pad. It'll wash away the day's fatigue. Be mindful of water loss during storage. Due to the many moisturizing ingredients, it tends to dry out!

Packaging) The eco-friendly packaging was very pleasing to me. Fragrance) The fragrant sandalwood scent. It has a calm and slightly neutral feel. The fragrance lingers long after showering~ No need for perfume haha (Sandalwood fragrance is said to have a calming effect on the mind and body) Stone massage effect) The shape of the stone felt like it was well-researched. The wide parts were great for massaging the neck, trapezius, shoulders, upper arms, sides, waist, thighs, and calves, while the narrow parts were perfect for massaging the collarbones, Achilles tendon, and lower calves. As someone with severe leg edema, sitting in the bathtub and massaging myself made the swelling go down! Foam texture) The soap is infused with bifida serum, so the texture is dense, smooth, and slippery. The foam is also rich and great for gentle massaging. Usage) It felt extremely dense and slippery when using, making me wonder if it would rinse off well, but it rinsed off cleanly. After patting dry, my skin felt moisturized and soft! I usually need to use a body cream even in the summer, but after using the ampoule stone, a light lotion is enough to keep my skin hydrated. Exfoliation) It's not as strong as a scrub, but it does provide decent exfoliation. The more I use it, the softer and smoother my skin (especially my legs) becomes. In the winter, I use the famous S* product with Dead Sea salt and oil scrub, but the ampoule stone is perfect for summer :) Hardness of the product) It's not too soft. After using it four times, the size only decreased slightly. If you let it dry properly after use, it should last a long time :)
Cons(From my personal perspective) *The product is very slippery, making it difficult to grip during body brushing massage. (This may be an issue for those with sensitive skin) *The lingering sandalwood fragrance after showering may be overbearing for those who don't enjoy the heavy, earthy scent. *(Or is it just me?) I felt a cool, refreshing sensation after showering, almost like using a menthol shampoo. This tingling effect may be perceived as irritation by those with sensitive skin.
Tip*After using the soap for massage, don't rinse it off immediately. Instead, massage your body with the remaining slippery foam. The foam has the perfect texture for massaging! This will double the exfoliating effect and moisturizing benefits!! *If you're in a rush in the morning, try using it after work when you have more time. It's so relaxing, the fragrance is lovely, and it's pure healing :) *To prevent the soap from wearing down too quickly, use a magnetic soap holder! But be sure to remove the holder before using the soap, as it can cause injury if the soap gets too thin.
