Vanicream Cleansing Bar 3.9 Oz (110 G) Pack of 4 by Vanicream

I got this bar after an itching spell had lasted too long... I still do not know what sets my skin off, but every so often I go a good couple of weeks just being itchy - everywhere! I have changed my laundry soap, and gone to gentler cleansers and been careful around cleaning products, but I have not ever figured out exactly what it is that sets my skin into what I guess is a type of flair-up. There is not any particular redness or rash, with the exception of where I have scratched and the only thing that seems to cause an immediate reaction during one these episodes is direct sun light... it makes me feel a little like my skin is on fire and then I will get a small rash that only last a short time. I have gone through this now a few times and have finally figured out a routine that seems to stop the flair-up... I use three different products - Glyderm gentle cleanser (a face cleanser with glycolic acid meant for sensitive skin) - I use it full body and let it sit about 5 minutes to exfoliate the top layer of my skin in case the itching is being caused by an irritant that has been deposited on my skin. I then use the an anti-fungal soap called PediFix FungaSoap Liquid - it has a strong smell that might turn some off, but I use it in case I am having a mild yeast or bacterial type of reaction in my skin. I let it sit a few minutes and then rinse. I do not use antibacterial soap on a regular basis, because I have an awful time with yeast infections if I do, so my normal cleansers would not necessarily catch a bacterial skin issue. And then last, I use the Vanicream soap. It is gentle and it is able to rid my body of the scents of the stronger cleansers... it also leaves my skin feeling clean, but neither tight or slippery. It is a mild soap meant for gentle skin, but I think it has a mild scent - it does not smell perfumy at all, though. I might repeat the above process a couple of times, but then I continue my daily showers with the Vanicream. Of the cleansers meant for sensitive skin, it is the one that I prefer in terms of scent and how my skin feels afterward. Oh, and I also use a high quality calendula oil, cream or lotion after bath or before towel drying to moisturize and calm my skin. The oil alone will help the itching stop temporarily; but whatever is causing the itching does not go away until I go through the whole routine two or three times. I still have no clue what sets my skin off, but I have a pretty decent arsenal of go-to stuff to quickly start dealing with the situation. And in between, I use this soap and maybe the oil to keep my skin calm. The first couple of times it happened, my routine would also include a soak in RID, in case the itching was being caused by some unseen parasite, but it did absolutely nothing to stop the itching and I surmised that my itching is not due to any type of body lice or pest. Mind you, I never saw symptoms of such, but by the time you itch that long for no apparent reason; you really are ready to try anything to just make it stop.

It was fine. Thank u!!

I have used many soaps that claim to be for sensitive skin, but this is the best sensitive skin soap out there and it doesn’t break the bank!

I have used the Vanicream Cleansing Bar for many years as well as their moisturizing skin cream and lotion...great products for those with sensitive skin. Vanicream products were recommended to me by my dermatologist because I was experiencing horrible skin rashes when using other brands of moisturizers. I highly recommend Vanicream products.

Been buying this soap for years. Its the only one I use on my face because as my dermatologist told me, its one of the few products out there thats just soap.

Reliable company; quick delivery. This is the best bath soap for anyone with extremely sensitive skin like us. Our dermatologist and PCPhysician recommended this brand for everything from bar soap, sunscreen and so forth. Excellent product and service. Thank you. PS: No itching or red rash is a huge relief!

I have struggled with extremely dry, red, sensitive skin on my face for as long as I can remember (I have been diagnosed with Rosacea and Dermatitis). My dermatologist recently recommended the Vanicream skincare line. After about six weeks of using this cleansing bar on my face (in combination with the Vanicream Moisturizing Cream and Vanicream Sunscreen), I started noticing that my natural skin barrier was being restored, and a lot of the redness and sensitivity was going away. It is also important to note that before using Vanicream, I was using an extremely expensive cleansing line for over two years (SOOTHE by Rodan + Fields). It controlled the dryness, but didnt really do anything for the pain and redness I was experiencing. I then developed some sort of allergic reaction and was forced to look for other skincare options. At first, I didnt like Vanicream as much as my old skincare line (the dryness returned when I first made the switch). However, I stuck with Vanicream day after day and eventually got WAY better results. Vanicream has gone way beyond my expectations. Not only is it way less expensive than what I was using before, it actually works to improve all of my skin issues! Im writing this review to help other people like me get back to feeling great about their skin!

My son uses it for the acne on his face, works well

Good product just not from this company to do business with
