Ethique Sweet orange & Vanilla Bodywash Bar 4.23 oz - (Pack of 3)

This was a second choice after my favorite bar was sold out. It sounded like I would like it on paper, but haven't we all had the experience that sometimes that doesn't work out? This scent is just lovely. The orange comes out nicely and the vanilla just warms it up somehow. 5 Stars!!!

For years, I used Dial Gold Soap. I legitimately liked the smell and feel, but I'll confess that a large part of that aspect of my routine was based on my ideals surrounding masculinity. I thought spending more than $2 on a bar of soap was ridiculous. Well, they changed the formula of the gold soap, and I didn't like it anymore. I had already switched to using nicer shampoos and conditioners, but body soap was my Final Frontier. I still clung to using harsh inexpensive drug store soap as a way of affirming my gender. But the new formula was really drying out my skin, so I decided to give this Ethique soap a try. And I gotta say, I have seen the light. My skin is SOFT, and I feel happy after every shower. The scent is pleasant and light, and doesn't stick around for more than hour after showering (my ideal). It honestly reminds me of those orange soaps you could get in Tokyo that when soaked in water, would fizz away and reveal a hamtaro figurine. So I feel a fun little sense of nostalgia when showering. Anyways, less on me and more on the product. I use it just like a regular bar of soap, scrubbing it directly on my skin. The first time you use it, it isn't super smooth, but by the second shower it glided across my skin just fine. It's hydrating and easy to use. Yes, it's more expensive, but the shipping is free, and you get a little mini when you order too. I am happy and would gladly recommend this product.

If I could rate all of the products I received as zero, I would. No smell for any of the products. So disappointing and what a waste of money. I wanted to try out other brands of zero plastic shampoo and conditioner bars other than what I already use. Obviously a huge mistake. Save you money and buy another brand.

I like the feel of this bar, and it seems to get me nice and clean, but there's no scent. It just smells like soap. Not bad, but not nearly as yummy as the Sweet Orange & Vanilla body butter I got in the same order. I've always been thrilled with Ethique products but it seems a few of us got a scentless batch?

I slowly been getting rid of my bathroom plastic bottles products for more eco friendly. I love ethique hair products! So I thought I would give the a body bar a try. Frist of it does smell like a orange ice pop. Its not a strong smell. Can smell it very well on the bar and little the shower but after the shower I don't smell it anymore. The bar did make me feel clean. My biggest thing I noticed was it left a sticky residue on my skin. I still felt it after I washed it off. I did not like that feeling at all. but after I got dried off after the shower I did the feel the residue anymore. Then I moved on with my morning. Then about an hour or 2 latter. My whole body felt itchy, to my arms to my back. I put lotion on but it did not help at all. I also noticed I started to get a rash around my neck! I did not even itch my neck! It was driving me crazy that I had to take a shower again using my old bodywash to wash the orange bar off me. I felt lot better lot less itchy but still little itchy. This bar is not for me. I am super sad I did not like it and now I have a full bar of it. I have always had sanative skin. but this bar is just not for me. the sticky residue just made my skin lose it. I do want to try an other body bar by ethique. I just don't want my skin to freak out again. Also the money I spent on this bar. I don't know which one to try next, or even if I want to spent the money. If my skin will itch again from it.
