Sulfur in soap? I honestly can say that I was a bit apprehensive in testing this product out and wasn’t sure how it would affect me. Having used a handful of products from Adovia, I know that while many of their products offer quality due to my sensitive skin, I must use them with precaution.
After receiving the soap I wanted to make sure that I tested it out first in a small area that is not as sensitive as others. The Adovia Sulfur Soap retails for $16 (on sale currently for $10.00) through the Adovia Amazon store front.
Adovia natural sulfur soap is enriched with minerals from the Dead Sea. The soap is infused with lush Olive Oil and aloe vera, as well as the Dead Sea minerals so while it is cleansing your skin it is still gentle. Three percent of sulfur content helps to remove / dead skin cells and your pores are unclogged. Any harmful impurities and oils that embed themselves deep into the epidermis are targeted and dissolved by this sulfur soap leaving your skin feeling and looking clean and acne and black heads start to improve. To help to keep the skin supple and hydrated, Adovia Sulfur Soap is packed with Palm and Palm Kernel Oil as well.
As many of you know – I don’t suffer from Acne or much breakouts unless my monthly friend is in the neighborhood and I do have very sensitive skin. Often times certain products may dry out my skin to the point that it causes my Eczema to flare up. I tested this product in small areas where I know is not as sensitive and didn’t have an issue with it though I did notice that while it didn’t strip my face of a lot of moisture, places that would have been a little more oily (like my forehead), it eliminated the oil from. My skin felt nice and soft, not dry at all and I was quite impressed with it all around. I did get a hint of a scent, but it really smelled of a soft soap scent, nothing too strong for me which I liked. The company did mention that they recommend that you start using this soap slowly (which I did) so your skin can adjust to the healing sulfur which is not common in soap products your body / face may be accustomed to.

Overall – I don’t think I have ever used a bar of soap for my face and while I can’t use this soap on a daily basis, I think this would work perfectly during the summer months when my skin is the most oily. I did notice how quickly this soap worked to remove excess oil and dirt from my face and because of this, I know a few people that would definitely benefit from this product and I’ll be suggesting it to them. Since my skin is overly sensitive while I think this product is pretty cool and definitely works, again – it will be something I’ll have to use selectively. Because it is in a bar form, that also means it will be difficult for me to use it up and keep the bar sanitary in the process – but I do think this product is pretty cool. Have you tried anything like this before? What are your thoughts on this product?

I’ve never tried sulphur in soap either – I reckon it should work on acne since there are sulphur-based acne treatments. Thanks for the review!
thank you 🙂
My face is so dry, this would be a humidity weather choice and summer months only too. Good to know 😉
yes girl… same for me. My husband has a bar and likes it… my sister too… but for me I think too much during the dry months for me.
I need to try this, after my sons my face is like a 15 year old smh
if you do – let me know how it works.
I really like that they told you to start out slow. That is such great advice to keep your skin safe and keep you happy. I don’t really like bar soaps, but I think this may be worth a try for people with acne is it is probably easier on your skin than the harsh chemical treatments.
Oh yes, my skin is so sensitive, I’m so glad… because I don’t need a bad flare up :/
This is super interesting. I never even thought about a sulfur soap before!
Me either… so it did freak me out a bit at first.
This looks interesting, I’m bookmarking this for later. I have oily acne-prone skin so this is something I’d want to try. 🙂
🙂 I hope it works… 🙂
Might be a good soap to use once or twice a week like an extra deep cleanse or something!
same… I think it is for me just a once a week thing.
This definitely sounds interesting – I think I’d be wary about using it every day though.
same – I could not use it every day… my husband does and it works for him… my skin too sensitive.
My skin is really dry but for the Summer months this might work nice!
🙂 It’s not bad of a price… I just suggest taking your time in trying it 🙂
This sounds nice!! Great review!
thank you 🙂 I think it is pretty good.
Great review!
thank you 🙂
