I bought this a while ago at a hot spring resort and liked it, so I've been using it regularly ever since. I wanted to try it again after a long time, so I bought two! I've been bothered by bumps around my nose, so I only use bar soap to wash my face. This soap thoroughly removes oil, leaving my skin feeling refreshed and not tight, and it has a nice, invigorating scent. A foaming net is essential. I tried washing the sponge I use to spread liquid foundation with this soap, and it came off perfectly. The cleansing power is impeccable.
It takes longer to lather than body soap, and because it's a solid soap, the foam isn't particularly bouncy, but it leaves your skin feeling very clean after washing, and it thoroughly removes stickiness and sebum, leaving your skin feeling smooth and refreshed.
It has a lovely hinoki scent. I use a foaming net to lather it up and then wash like a face mask, which feels amazing. My skin doesn't feel tight after washing. It doesn't sting, so I can use it with confidence. However, while the soap is curved to make it easier to hold, it's a little difficult to use because it's too large vertically.
It's a fairly large size, so it lasts a long time, lathers well, and doesn't seem to go flat easily, so I didn't have to worry about friction. However, it does strip away a lot of oil, so it left my skin feeling quite dry. It wasn't great for washing my face.
I've been using this for a long time at my parents' house, so I bought it because I wanted to use it again after a long time. It leaves a very clean feeling. I wanted a softer way to remove dirt, so it no longer suited me.
