The verdict
Beyond the listing

The soap is noted for leaving skin soft and clean without dryness, though some find it finishes quickly and a few report the body wash formula feels oily or leaves residue on skin. The mint variant received mixed feedback, with some finding the fragrance less appealing than the original.
