Still the best glycerin soap (and I've had to try many others when it hasn't been available)
Scent: Unscented
Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
It takes a lot for me to toss out $3 for 4oz of soap, but I've given the Whole Foods 365 harder bars a try and my skin was itchy and dry, Pears has long been a horrible product nothing like its old self (though the old bars always "smelled like grandma" in that 'old lady fake fragrance' way, not the
cozy cookies baking all day scent of grandma)... and a few others, too, that claim to have glycerin but it's way down on the list which goes against the point for super sensitive, easily irritated/inflamed/reddened skin. One solid testimony to this=I took some (I always travel with a few new bars in case I misplace one or my room is cleaned out against the DND/leave it be order) on a trip to Michigan visiting displaced family in that not-great-for-allergy-sufferers area and my brother in law who'd been using unscented Dove was tossed a bar when I saw that 1) they had nothing in there I could use to wash my face, hands etc and 2) his skin was just chronically red and he itched more than he should, even with allergy woes... 2 days, 2 showers later and poof, a big boy back to his Northern Europe creamy-toned skin, ta-da! For me, a huge perk of this=it is TOTALLY great at getting body and deodorant sorts of FUNK away no matter the culprit. Nothing else does it without drying out my skin or worse causing it to feel like I am breaking out in a rash from the itchy after-effects. If your skin is more delicate than a baby's, try it. It's not going to foam up like the junk with skin-irritating SLS sorts of mess or things made from TALLOW=animal fat that will clog your pores up and never quite get you clean, really truly clean. If you want foam, you'll have to use something that lacks the abundance of glycerin. It'll be soft if it gets really hot. It can ooze, yep, if you set it down somewhere flat on its long and wide side; I put it in the dish on top of a cut loofah (a local goat milk soap maker has one that they pour the soap into loofahs and cut the bars after it's hard-it's my exfoliating one and the leftover loofah soaks up this stuff well and lets me set it on the skinny end)... The ONE soap I use besides the artisan local stuff and this=Kirk's Castille soap, my usual hand washing one because THAT will foam up like no other and doesn't take much... but dang it's a skin-drying mess; ALL castille soaps have always been for me. I'm a delicate flower, I guess, but this even works on my FACE which even face cleansers can't be used on 95% of the time. My autoimmune skin symptoms are at bay with it as much as they will ever be; I don't break out in acne or have the eczema patches from it, I can tell my skin's pollutants are getting out because of how the smell changes (when my skin is barely dirty/just hot and I wash it, the smell isn't there; if I go somewhere that has any oil/grease in the air, that aroma becomes part of the soap which DOES lather in my experience, just NOT apparently how much others want). If you want a "squeaky clean" feel, this isn't the thing-try Kirk's. The squeaky clean thing is great for dishes, but skin? You really DON'T want to strip every ounce of moisture out aggressively unless you have been playing with motor oil without gloves on and need GoJo! Ah, and VARIATION IS NATURAL. To freak out about 3 separate bars when one has what might just be ink on the wrapper... wow, weird/extreme. No one USES soap then vacuum seals it; the sealing process costs way more than the soap; they can just sell other bars for enough to cover the one bar they use. This IS an all-natural product, and the bars aren't super hard, so yeah, if they are stored improperly at a warehouse, they'll kinda melt (soaps DO melt-how else do you think they get them into these shapes?) and be lopsided. I don't buy soap for aesthetic purposes and can forgive the variation since it's not like Clearly Natural are who sent it out that way. The product isn't to blame; the warehouse/shipper would be. I've NEVER seen one with dirt on the plastic, with any massive shape deformity, etc in a retail store (natural product grocers/pharmacies/beauty product sellers have this coast to coast though it does go out of stock every time they put it on sale for under two bucks here-I live in a costly place, though, with a huge consumer base for natural goods). I've bought this for years, though, over ten, and nothing compares to it for general purpose body cleaning. Oh, one other decent bar I use that's way harder and that I mostly get the scrubby oat-containing variant of=Sappo Hill's "glycerin" bar. It's not moisturizing but doesn't dry my skin TOO bad (still HAVE to use lotion after though), and my face would be wrecked, but the one w/oats is useful for the bottom of my feet/between toes since that's the only spot I am kind of aggressive about once in a while-it's alright for exfoliating my legs, too, but the goat milk loofah one is just way better so I stick to Clearly Natural in a natural material scrubby mitten or the goat one that costs $5-6 for a few ounces of soap and ounce or so of loofah (stuff is lightweight). That 365 unscented 'glycerin soap bar' still sits with the 365 not even rubbed out-pity there's nothing I can really clean with it besides my skin that it makes itchy.

Great Preshave soap.
Scent: Unscented
Size: 3 Count (Pack of 1)
I use this as a pre-shave soap to soften hair on face and scalp. Due to the high glycerin content, it does not lather well but if does moisturize my skin and soften beard hair. It is very slick and improves the quality of my face and head shaving. It is basically unscented, it does have a faint smell
but it isn’t unpleasant. If you want a rich lathering soap this is not for you but it serves my purpose very well. The cost Amazon is the best I’ve found. Very economical.

Love This Soap !
Scent: Unscented
Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Don't know why one of the 'Rating' categories is 'Scent' - it has none. Don't let the lack of straightaway sudsing up discourage you. This soap doesn't have the additives, chemicals, and foaming agents found in most 'brand name' soaps. An early morning shower before work soap that doesn't leave you s
melling like the hills of Ireland. It works well on affected areas of my skin that this high-dessert, climate causes to break out with an allergic, reaction. Don't know how well it would do for showering after spending an afternoon dropping a trans and pulling a small block for a rebuild. Using a bar, exclusively, in the shower of my own bathroom, the 'three-pack' - around $7, will last just short of one and half years.

Great for sensitive skin
Scent: Unscented
Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is excellent for sensitive skin. Regular soap detergents dry out my skin and cause dermatitis over time. This product is the only soap that does not cause that problem.
