I thought that by the time I reached 38, dealing with acne breakouts would be a thing of the past. Sadly, that was not the case. I tried a variety of medicines, face washes, creams, etc. and nothing seemed to consistently work. After continued breakouts, excessively dry skin from various products, I became largely disheartened. After using this facial soap for a short time, I noticed my acne began to disappear. After two weeks of consistent use, I my acne had disappeared and not returned. Months later, I still use only the Sudsy Soapery's activated charcoal and tomato facial soap and have not had one breakout, nor have I fought dry skin even through these rough winter temps. Needless to say, this facial soap is the only product I will ever use!
