Sulfur helps the skin shed quicker, thus unclogging the pore and healing the acne. Sulfur also has some antimicrobial qualities that can kill the acne-causing bacteria.

Yes, this soap will dry out acne caused by oil and/or dirt in skin. On occasion an old fashioned doctor will still prescribe it, but it has largely become forgotten with all these newer chemicals that pharmaceutical companies are pushing on the public.

My family and I use it as a facial soap with no problems. I usually lather it up in my hands and apply to my wet face. I would recommend using a moisturizer after washing with this soap as it can cause the skin to become dry unless you have oily skin.

I don't imagine so, it's soap. The purpose is to clean your skin so you will need water on it. Hope that helps.

No it doesn't dry your face out. I love this particular soap. I use it for everything, even to was my dogs. It makes my face really soft and skin really clean!!! I don't have much acne, but my husband has some Acne breakouts on his scalp and it totally got rid of it!!! This is truly an amazing soap!!!

I started using this soap in college due to the harsh water. I found that it didn't strip my skin nor made it too oily. I have used it with various water conditions and I have not experienced oily skin.

Yes. I have been using it daily for the past couple of years. It is a great facial cleanser.

Hello, Miss Brown. I personally would not recommend that anyone use this "unscented" Dove bar soap "for sensitive skin" as a facial cleanser. I think it's more suited towards exclusively being a "body wash".

Yes; I would say it worked best on that. For face acne it worked well to but not as well for anything deep or cystic. Overall my back cleared up within one month and my face looked much calmer and clear minus a spot or two of stubborn cystic stuff. Keep in mind all I did was use standard face washing twice a day and a fresh pillowcase every night- nothing else except these pills (no salylic acid or benzo stuff)

I have used this soap to wash my face my whole life (now 70 years old) and have never found it to stop mosquitos from biting my face. This soap is the best thing to use for a clean clear complexion. Worked for me for over 50 years.

I am a black woman with medium-dark complexion...I can only speak for myself but this soap hasn't bleached my skin and I've been using it for about a year. It has cleared my breakouts and gives my skin a even tone.

I do not know since I have not had that issue; it may be too oily for acne. But I believe in this product for all skin issues otherwise !

i normally use it twice a week, i run a nice bath and just wash my face with dove sensitive soap and then used the scrub rubbing in an upward motion for about 3 mins. i had bad acne after being on the pill. the acne cleared up but left me with red marks for almost 2 years!! this scrub has been the best thing i have used to to help make them fade, quite dramatically actually. After the bath i just use a toned and some antiseptic cream as i don't need a moisturizer.

I have blotchy skin due to acne scars. If I said lighten my skin in my review that wasn't what I meant. It evens your skin tone to it's natural color. The soap exfoliates and speeds up the natural healing process so that your skin becomes clearer much faster than with normal soaps or creams.

I had to discontinue using this soap as I broke out in a rash after several days of use. I used it to control scalp folliculitis. It works except for the rash. There was some stinging. Lather a small cutting of the soap about the size of a dime. Avoid getting in the eyes. Good luck.

Hello Sir/Madame,I purchased this soap for a relative b/c they are staying in a temp facility with an infestation of bed bugs. To date, I have been told that the relative has developed a fungus/lesion on their skin and they have used the soap, which they stated is very nice (smell) and effective in reducing the effects of the lesion on the skin.They do plan to order more of the soap. I believe I will order for my family to.Hope this helps.BestMC
