Not worth the trouble
The refreshing scent and lightly exfoliating texture are really lovely. I like the result of the wash on my skin - but have found it's not worth the aggravation of the overall experience. As others have noted, the choice of a bottle with small squirt top is not the right choice of packaging - the product is clumpy in texture and I had to unscrew the top and squeeze right from the bottle, which was still hard to do. So the packaging is a total fail (it needed to be in a jar like a body polish, not a wash). Secondly, the mess left in the shower makes this product not worth using in my mind. If you have an all tile/glass shower it might not be too much of a problem to scrub down after using the product, however I have a shower curtain with a fabric liner, and this product stains the liner. I have to scrub any drops of foam that landed on the liner off after each time I used this product, and I still have light gray stains on my curtain. This product would be nice to use in a spa setting, where I'm not responsible for the mess/cleaning after using!
Nice idea
A charcoal wash is appealing to me, but I did not enjoy this product. It was thin and non sudsing and felt it had zero cleansing ability. It did make a huge mess in the shower. Packaging for this and the face wash is cheap and non efficient for the product.
Too Messy
This is a gentle, charcoal body scrub with a menthol-herbal fragrance that helped alleviate my KP; unfortunately, as other reviewers also noted, it made a mess of the shower. I have a shower-tub combo, and while the charcoal easily rinsed off, there was an ashy grit residue that would not lasted even after a thorough tub scrubbing. I gave up using before getting halfway through the bottle and will not consider purchasing again.
Lovely smell, less lovely shower
I really enjoyed the scent of this (which primarily reminded me of black licorice), and it was a nice texture and didn't dry out my skin. Unfortunately, the charcoal made a mess of the shower, and ultimately was enough of a nuisance to prevent me from buying this again.
Another superhero!
This wash smells so yummy(may be too earthy for some but to me, the dirtier the better!) and it's nice to have an anti-acne body wash option. It mildly exfoliates and is a wonderful little aromatherapy sesh for your shower. I also love the simple clean packaging. I am excited to see if it helps clarify the less than cute backne i sometimes get from working out or just living in dirty Los Angeles. Yay for another Hero!
