The scent isn't overpowering, but it's a bit unique. It might be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance.

Surprisingly, my skin didn't feel dry after cleansing. It lathers up really well, creating a rich foam. Great for sensitive skin, as it's gentle and non-irritating.

Thylox, Acne Treatment Soap with Sulfur (유황비누)

While the scent isn't unpleasant, it has a distinctive fragrance that might not be for everyone

It lathers up better than expected and seems to have good cleansing effectiveness

Innisfree sells a face mask with sulfur in it. That's good too!

After using it for about two months
I've used about two and a half bars of this soap. When I was using the first bar, I was in tears thinking, 'I've finally found it, my holy grail soap...!' But after finishing two bars, it's like everything's gone back to how it was before. There's no effect anymore, and if anything, I'm getting more breakouts... Farewell, sulfur soap.

Since I started cleansing with this soap, my skin feels a bit dry. It was fine at first, but now, a month into using it, I've noticed that my skin, which has been super oily for over 10 years, feels tight and cracked if I apply my usual light layer of skincare. But I guess I could just apply a more robust skincare routine... If only it would stop the blemishes...
I feel like those with super sensitive skin or dry skin should be careful when using this.
If you start to feel dryness, I recommend using it only 2-3 times a week.

I'm leaving another review after using it for about two months...! Please check out the not-so-good points too.

If sulfur works well for your skin, give this a try...
Since I started cleansing with this, my blemishes have significantly reduced...! I've been so stressed about acne that I've tried everything under the sun. I even went to a traditional Korean medicine clinic for herbal remedies and got laser treatments, but nothing changed, so I had just given up.
If only I had known earlier that sulfur works so well for my skin...
I'm almost done with one bar now, and I've been using it morning and evening every day. I love that it's not irritating to my skin.
Plus, its cleansing effectiveness is truly impressive. I use Estée Lauder Double Wear foundation, and I do a first cleanse with this soap, followed by a second cleanse with Round A'round cleansing foam. Before, when I used to double cleanse with just Round A'round, I felt like my makeup only came off after the second cleanse. But with this soap, it feels like everything is removed just with the first cleanse.
My skin used to be so oily it was like a oil slick, but now the oil is gone to the point where I wonder where it all went.
The absolute best thing is that I'm not getting new blemishes...

1. Given its potency, daily use is a no-go. As someone with super sensitive dehydrated skin, I use it once every two weeks.
2. Be careful - they say if metal accessories touch your skin after using this, the color of the accessories can change

1. Only available for purchase on iHerb
2. The sulfur smell... it'll be your unwanted bedtime companion that night
3. It's quite drying!

When using this product, I create a lather, leave it on my face for about a minute, and then do a rolling massage.

1. Excellent at removing excess sebum
2. It really brightens up my complexion

I'm not sure if it would be suitable for those with very dry skin. Being a soap, it seems to strip away even necessary oils.

For a bar soap, it gives a clean and refreshing feeling. Knowing it's prescribed by a doctor provides peace of mind.

The downside is that it can be drying. Make sure to follow up with your skincare routine. The scent is not particularly pleasant.

Excellent cleansing effectiveness with minimal irritation. You can actually see your blemishes calming down.

The downside is that I don't think it's quite suitable for those with dry skin.

It lathers up nicely. I bought it on my dermatologist's recommendation, and I think it's pretty good.

As far as I know, it's only available through international shipping, so you need to buy it in advance before you run out

It effectively removes dead skin cells while also not causing any major blemishes, so I've been using it consistently

It's so drying... Seriously, it's incredibly drying. Even with my oily skin, I can feel the deep dryness.

Highly recommended for oily skin! It really works wonders - goodbye excess oil and sebum!

After using your foam cleanser, gently cleanse with this soap as well. Make sure to use it consistently morning and evening, and you'll see those closed comedones disappear (it even cleared up my back acne!).

Since my U-zone is dry, I did feel some tightness after washing. However, it's definitely less drying than other soaps. The only downside I can think of is that it's not very well-known in our country, which might make purchasing a bit inconvenient.

I have combination skin with an oily T-zone, dry U-zone, and dehydration issues. My forehead was constantly plagued by stubborn closed comedones! Even after changing my skincare routine and switching to a low pH cleanser, those pesky bumps would reappear just when I thought they were gone, causing me so much stress. But amazingly, after consistently using this soap for my morning and evening cleanse, I noticed the closed comedones starting to disappear! My friends even commented on my bare face, saying the bumps were gone! Plus, my T-zone is definitely less oily now. If you're struggling with oily skin and closed comedones, you absolutely must try this!

It's extremely drying. It completely strips away all moisture, making my face feel tight and shriveled. While using this, my eye area became so irritated and painful that there were times I could barely open my eyes.

Great for removing facial oil. I usually have very oily skin, but when I use this, my face doesn't get as greasy even in the afternoon.

Be cautious, as the sulfur content may thin your skin over time.

I'm not sure if it actually helps with blemishes. It removes oil so effectively that it makes my skin too dry. I used to be fine with just toner, but with this soap, I had to layer on essence and cream. Otherwise, my skin felt like it was cracking. Also, those with super sensitive skin should be careful as it might cause a tingling sensation. And if it gets in your eyes, it's absolute torture.

When I first used it, my skin seemed to brighten up and I really loved it. But as I continued using it, I'm not sure if I've built up a tolerance? I have acne-prone, sensitive, oily skin, and this product definitely removes excess oil. There's a slight sulfuric scent, but you get used to it after a while.
