5.0 out of 5 stars Great to use prior to surgery
Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2024
I used for two days prior to surgery, and for my hands post-op before changing bandages. No infections, but it did dry my skin. I like the pump dispensor, easy to access the soap with one hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great all around

I saw some people saying theirs arrived leaking, I had no such issues it was very firmly packaged in plastic without leaks. It’s a good amount of product even if the price is a little higher than I’d like. Pump is very sturdy, I have noticed that the soap tends to dry up and block the opening so I just clean the dried soap out with a Q-tip every so often.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best antibacterial
Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2024
This is the soap that is sometimes used in surgery to scrub a surgical site and it is what some surgeons ask patients to use on their whole body the night before their surgery. It is excellent soap. It is extremely drying though so when I use it to clean my incision I also use a good moisturizer to keep the skin from flaking off.

It’s sterile, easy to use with the pump and keeps my wound clean and sterile while changing dressings.

This is just a very refreshing cleansing to use occasionally. It cleans gently but it’s a great feeling to know you’re killing bacteria. Just really like it. Came quickly, nice packaging. All good

4.0 out of 5 stars Works well enough.
Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2024
A little does not go a long way. It takes one pump for each area, not one or two for your entire body. Got this for problem BO area that regular soap does not help. It works, but it takes a lot to like I’ve covered the area.

5.0 out of 5 stars It Fights the Funk!!!
Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2024
This soap is amazing! I use it to scrub my tush since I notice a slight funk throughout the day. Ever since I purchased it and began using it I’ve noticed that there is ZERO smell. I also use it to scrub my arm pits, and the same… no musty sweat smell. I would definitely recommend if you are battling funk no matter what you’re doing to combat it. I will say that it is a little on the expensive side for what I consider a small bottle BUT it is worth the money.
