Q: Is this non-scented?

submitted by Suzanne - 5 years ago
  • A: Yes. It has a slight scent. Nothing overpowering. It is not so strong that I would return

    submitted bywhitney - 7 months ago
  • A: It's 2023 (last Q/A 3 yrs old): current label lists "masking fragrance". Tried soap bc of the Q/A responses here, and it's scented. My whole bathroom smells like that tiny bar of soap.

    submitted byBeth - 2 years ago
  • A: Hi Suzanne! Yes, this product is unscented. I hope this helps!

Q: Is this a baby product? Or is this for adults?

submitted by Panpa - 7 years ago
  • A: Just in case anyone else has that same question. The box lists "every age, every stage, every day" so it would seem anyone could use. These bars were recommended to me by my sons pediatrician when he was just a few months old due to eczema looking dry skin. He is two years old now and I still use this soap for him exclusively; If not for the cost, I would use this myself because it smells SO good and makes skin so soft.

    submitted byMandy B - 7 years ago
  • A: Hi, Panpa. While these cleansing bars are ideal for dry, sensitive skin, they do not specifically list safe for baby's skin. For babies, we recommend the Cetaphil Baby Soothing Bar. Hope this helps!

Q: It would appear to me that each bar is about 4.5 Oz. And if the total weight is 13.5 Oz, then there should be 3 bars in total. Please confirm that there are 3 soap bars for $9.99

    I used this facial bar for a while, considering I have oily skin, and it works really well. It’s a creamy product. It comes in convenient little cardboard boxes. It has a mild yet pleasantly noticeable scent.

    IMO, "gentle" skin cleansers should have no added fragrance, especially if you are prone to eczema. This does have an added fragrance, and to me, it was unpleasant. I had to wash numerous times with a different cleanser to get the scent off of me. I just got over a bout of eczema and this is definitely not the skin cleanser for me. I got the three pack and threw them all away. Too bad, because I generally like Cetaphil products, but not this one. Going to have to look for another product, one that is unscented and has the NEA (National Eczema Association) label.

    This product has been a game-changer for my sensitive and eczema-prone skin! It leaves a slightly oily texture at first, but it dissipates after a bit, which I'm good with. Plus, it's fragrance-free, so that's a win. The packaging is sleek and minimal, just the clear Ceramic logo. Only downside is it's a bit pricey for a soap.

    Very nice simple cleansing bar. I found it does not stripe my nature oils or make my skin tight after use but does a great job at a gentle cleanse. Would recommend.

    I don't know what's going on with this skin bar soap. It used to have a nice scent. I don't know if it's with the company the store the delivery, but it doesn't smell or feel like the same set of feel that I usually use, strange i've been using a soap for a while and it always had a fresh sense about it, now nothing absolutely nothing. I'm so disappointed. This was my soap for life.

    Listen I actually like scented products but OMG. From the moment I cracked the wrapping on this bar I knew I'd made a mistake. I used it a few times, trying to make it work, but no. Just no. It fills the entire bathroom with this super strong powdery, perfumey scent (very 'grandma', forgive the term). My spouse could not stand the way I smelled after using this haha. Not for nothing, it also felt irritating and burned the bejesus out of my eyes no matter how hard I avoided them. I find this pretty expensive for what it is too. Remembered Basis bar exists after this experiment and I've been much happier ever since.

    I’ve been using this for a few weeks and it’s been incredibly gentle on my skin while still feeling clean and refreshed after every wash. It doesn’t dry out my skin like some other soapsand the scent is very mild and non-irritating. Simple, no-fuss packaging and good value for money too.

    I’ve been using this product for a while and I absolutely love it. It’s great for sensitive skin. I’ve tried other expensive face cleanser, and they don’t work as well as Cetaphil. The texture is light and smooth and not overly scented. I definitely recommend adding this to your facial daily routine.
