Love this soap!! Yes, it is a bit pricey, but you're definitely getting a lot of bang for your buck! The combination of charcoal and jojoba does a great job of exfoliating and leaves you feeling extremely clean. The scent is top notch as well and lingers on the skin for a while after showering. I've had numerous compliments lately on how good I smell! The bars seem to last a while as well unlike a lot of other bar soaps out there. I would highly recommend treating yourself and grabbing a couple bars of this soap, you won't regret it!
