Zirh Body Bar - Smells fresh and helps clear body acne.
Zirh Body Bar Ingredients List
Overall Rating: ★★★★☆
Price: $$ ($10-$20) – Available at Amazon.
Scent: Fresh, cool, slightly citrusy.
I Like: how the alpha hydroxy acids help to keep body acne and breakouts at bay. The refreshing fragrance. This bar lasts longer than the usual drugstore-bought soaps – it doesn’t soften up in the shower.
I don’t like: how the soap can dry out the skin if used too often.
Zirh’s Body Bar is ideal for anyone who is battling acne of the back, chest, arms, neck, or buttocks. That’s right – our bottoms are prone to occasional acne breakouts and ingrown hairs. The soap’s alpha hydroxy acid content helps to clear the skin. The bar smells fresh – citrusy with a hint of menthol. I recommend using this soap as a compliment to your everyday soap or body wash. If you use the Zirh Body Bar all the time, you run the risk of drying out your skin – something that could actually cause more breakouts. At $15, this soap is on the pricey side. However,
it holds up very well in the shower. You don’t have to worry about the bar prematurely disintegrating. If you’re regularly experiencing body breakouts, give the Zirh Body Bar a try. Don’t forget to moisturize after every shower. It will help keep your body from overproducing oils, which could lead to acne. Please note: Use this bar soap on areas other than the face. Using the Zirh Body Bar on your face may result in dryness and irritation.
Update (9/21/11): I just found out that Procter & Gamble is killing off the Zirh brand. More info can be found here and here. I suggest stocking up now if you like their products.
