I'm hooked on Matsuyama Oil & Soap and have tried several of their soaps, but I feel like this series leaves my skin feeling more moisturized and hydrated during the dry winter months. They offer a variety of scents, but the lemongrass-like scent is something people may not like. Personally, I smell it after a bath, but the scent fades after about an hour, so I felt like the time to enjoy the scent was a little short.
The refreshing scent is perfect for summer!
It cleanses thoroughly, so it's perfect for my skin. The lemongrass scent is also nice, so washing your face feels great.
