Review: The soap has a slight "rotten egg" smell to it, but it does leave your skin feeling clean! - I have very oily skin. It's to the point that in the middle of the day, I need to blot my entire face to get refreshed. I typically use Origins natural skin care products, but since I get adult acne, I have to incorporate a 7% benzoyl peroxide gel on my face after cleaning and toning. This typically works out for me, but on the weeks when I encounter more stress, I sometimes break out and need additional help. I usually look for some sort of salicylic acid solution to target any new breakouts, and I find it helps get me back on track. For my latest breakout, I did some research on desertcart.com and found the 10% sulfur/3% salicylic acid bar soap from DermaHarmony. The 3% salicylic acid is why I initally came, but the 10% sulfur intrigued me further. I have never used sulfur in an everyday skin product, but apparently it's been used for thousands of years for problematic skin conditions like acne and excessive oil. I decided to give it a go. When the bar first arrived, I opened up the packaging and gave it a smell. It did have a light "rotten egg" aroma to it because of the sulfur, but it wasn't overbearing. I used warm water and lathered it up. I gently massaged my face and body with the suds and left it on for a few minutes (they say to keep it on for at least 1-minute). After rinsing it off, there was a noticeable difference in how clean my skin felt. Afterwards, I dried my face, and continued with my regimen of toning, applying benzoyl peroxide, and moisturizer. For the regular user, this is may too drying, but with my oily skin and moisturizer, my skin was in equilibrium. I even noticed my face didn't get as oily as it typically does in the middle of the day! Overall, I think this bar can help people with oily and acne-prone skin. It does have a slight smell to it, and I found it makes my shower smell a bit since it's in an enclosed area. During the day, I can sometimes pick up on the sulfur as well, but asking my girlfriend, she said she doesn't notice it at all. It may depend on how sensitive one is to certain smells. I do like the fact that this bar gives me a good sense of balance in that it helps with oily skin and helps dry out any blemishes. If I feel my face getting too dry, I just add moisturizer. Try it out, and see if it works for you!
Review: Heck yeah it works! - Since it seems to work for myriad skin issues, I got this to see if would alleviate stubborn lichen planus symptoms. I used it in the shower, so used it on my face, too. It was fine, great lather, no odor, no dryness or skin irritation of any kind. So far no improvement on the LP, but holy shhhhh, completely unexpectedly my face looks amazing. Pores shrank to zero. Even more impressive considering this is during an extended period of blistering high summer heat & suffocating humidity, which usually makes my oily skin go wonky. I can't ever remember using a bar soap on my face. This company's bar soap is more potent than the liquid face soap it sells, so I guess I'll be sticking with the bar. Kinda pricey for body soap, but just used for face the cost won't be bad.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much of the coconut oil, palm oil, and table salt are actually in this soap? Individual percentages please**
A: Just so that we’re clear on this point, there is zero coconut oil and palm oil in the finished soap.  Some customers object to there being a slippery oil in a soap.  After all, oil is Comedogenic (clogs pores). How can that be? It’s because the palm and coconut oil get converted during the manufacturing process by way of a process called saponification.  

As a first step in the manufacturing process coconut oil and palm oil are converted into Sodium Palmate (a sodium salt of fatty acids derived from the oil palm), Sodium Cocoate (a sodium salt of fatty acids from coconut oil with lauric acid being the primary component), and Sodium Palm Kernelate (a sodium salt of the fatty acids derived from the oil of the palm kernel).  73.74% of our soap is made up of these substances.  Too much lauric acid in a formula can feel drying unless properly balanced with high superfat and/or high unsaturated fatty acid content. We cannot break down our recipe further than this because the formula is proprietary (e.g. if we gave away the percentage breakdown of these ingredients a competitor could make our soap).

I’m just guessing that this question has something to do with an objection to palm oil.  Let’s dig into that a wee bit.  DermaHarmony uses sustainably and responsibly sourced palm oil.  

Palm oil is a type of edible vegetable oil that is derived from the palm fruit, grown on the African oil palm tree. Oil palms are originally from Western Africa, but will flourish wherever heat and moisture are abundant. Palm oil is grown throughout Africa, Asia, North America, and South America, with roughly 85% of all palm oil globally produced and exported from Indonesia and Malaysia. While only 5% of the world's vegetable oil farmland is used for palm plantations, palm cultivation produces 38% of the world's total vegetable oil supply.

Palm oil production at one time occurred (and still does occur) at the expense of biodiversity and ecosystems in the countries where it is produced (e.g. cutting down rain-forests).  That’s not the case any longer for Certified Sustainable Palm Oil. Palm oil that is certified by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) respect criteria that reduce the negative impacts of palm oil cultivation on the environment and communities. Is RESPO palm oil perfect?  No.  In fact, most anything manufactured or grown outside of the developed world (those countries that care about the environment) hare negative impacts on the planet.  The problem here is that many oils just cannot be cultivated in the USA. Using other vegetable oils might seems like a practical solution to help the environment.  But, using other oils would create similar environmental and social impacts.  So the best course of action - in our opinion - is to source RESPO palm oil.

Palm oil is the most widely consumed vegetable oil on the planet, and it is in about half of all packaged products sold in the supermarket.  It is also the most used oil in soaps.  If you object to soap (which is always made from oil) then your other alternative is a Syndet bar (known as a cleansing bar). The word “syndet” is derived from “synthetic” combined with “detergent”. Technically it refers to the binding that occurs between different detergents, also called surfactants or tensioactive agents. Syndet’s are full of chemicals.  Right now consumers are slowly move away from chemicals, chemical processes and the surfactants widely used in Syndet soap manufacturing. ‘Natural’ is what folks want.

We start with oil and end up with a rich triple milled soap base. Certified oil is imported in the USA and we process the oil into a soap base. And because of the soap making process, none of the original oil is left behind after the transformation.  

The soap has 0.25 (1/4 of one percent) table salt.

**Q: Why isn't the sulfur percentage and salicylic acid percentage listed on the product label?**
A: When we reworked the label to comply with the April 2017 federal standards for labeling, we put the ingredients in descending order according to the amount of ingredient. Our compliance team would not approve percentages on the product label because that could signal that our product is an OTC and not a soap (that would change how we're able to market the product). We're selling a soap. This is a well loved and popular soap for cleansing.

**Q: Is this sulfur soap safe to pack in a checked bag on a plane?**
A: Yes.  You should not have any issues from TSA with Sulfur & Salicylic Acid bar soap. The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint.  I typically cut-off a small section of the bar or travel with a used bar that is smaller. Smaller is better when dealing with the TSA.

**Q: Are brown spots in the soap normal?**
A: Brown spots in our 10% Sulfur soap is normal.  It is caused by small flakes of sulfur.  There is no harm in using this soap.  It's natural. There is a product photo on the listing page that shows a bar with spots.  

When we're packaging the soap into the doboy wrapper we reject bars with too many spots.  These bars are cut-up and used to make new bars.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gentle, skin softening sulfur soap
*by M***I on December 4, 2017*

I did a lot of research when looking for a sulfur face soap to hopefully help with rosacea break-outs on my nose. I am an older person with dry skin, and many reviewers cited the drying nature of sulfur soaps in general and also the off-putting smell of sulfur. I chose to order DermHarmony mainly due to a shorter list of ingredients (aka, fewer additives). I would have preferred NO salicylic acid, but nearly all the sulfur soaps contain it for some reason. I received my order yesterday. Upon opening and using this bar of soap last night, I noticed first of all that it had NO SMELL. No, it not only doesn't smell like rotten eggs; it doesn't smell like much of anything at all. Secondly, it did not cause the awful drying or burning that so many people reviewing sulfur soaps complained about. I noticed a mild "tightening" of the skin when it was on, but it appeared to rinse cleanly off, and my skin felt very soft afterward. I happened to notice a strange new break-out pimple near my hairline last night as well, so I used some sulfur soap on it, left the soap on for a few minutes, and then rinsed it off. I usually use a small amount of Aveeno regular lotion before bed, and that is all I needed after washing with this soap. This morning I lathered this sulfur soap and used it only on my nose. I left it on for about 10 minutes, then rinsed it off. No burning, no redness, no smell, no excessive dryness. After two uses, it does not appear to have have an affect on the rosacea either way, but I know it can take awhile to see results. However, also this morning, I noticed the pimple near the hairline is now a barely noticeable small bump under the skin. Whether the soap had a part in clearing it or not I can't be sure as it might have gone down on its own overnight even without the soap (but, it is my first data point). I rate this soap 4 stars for a gentle sulfur soap that softens skin with minimal drying. I probably wouldn't do well with anything stronger, so this was a good choice for me. I'll update my review and add a star if I find that this soap is effective in helping to treat rosacea break-outs or even to rapidly clear that occasional pimple of unknown origin.
