This soap from the Cocos brand helps maintain the freshness and cleanliness of your skin at all times. It not only cleanses the skin thoroughly but also provides therapeutic care. The product is part of a special medical line. The key ingredient in the soap is ichthyol, which contains 10.5% organically bound sulfur. It is derived from the distillation of bituminous shale, which contains fossilized marine animals and fish.
Ichthyol has antiseptic, antiparasitic, and keratoplastic properties, reduces inflammation, and can provide localized pain relief. It is often used for healing wounds, constricting blood vessels, and reducing secretion. Ichthyol is recommended for conditions such as eczema, burns, dermatitis, boils, and pyoderma. Cleansing the skin with this soap is a gentle way to apply ichthyol. It thoroughly cleanses the skin of impurities and excessive secretions from the skin glands, acts as an antiseptic, relieves itching, and evens out skin tone. This soap is also beneficial for seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp.

It cleanses well, but I haven't noticed any effect on breakouts yet. However, it leaves a yellow residue on the skin - even a cotton pad after showering turns yellow.
I took a risk because I have combination skin with oily and dry patches, as well as sensitive skin. But I like it. After washing, I need to use a moisturizer, then everything is fine. But the effect is beautiful. I have fewer breakouts and blackheads, a rosy glow on my cheeks - I was even surprised. My skin has become more even. The condition of my back and décolleté has also improved.
I use it and I'm afraid it might dry out my skin. I think that with my skin type, when the cold winds start, I will have to wash my face less often, but we'll see.
I cannot say anything about the soap yet as I haven't had a chance to use it, but I noticed that the soap bar only weighs 87 grams instead of the advertised 100 grams! This is quite concerning, as it is a difference of 13 grams, not just a small margin of error of ±5 grams. This is very disappointing!
I bought it for my husband, although not from here. It's good. If you have acne or oily skin, give it a try! The smell is not unpleasant, it's similar to tar soap.
I just tried this product once and I want to give a warning - it should not be left on the face for a long time as it heats up and turns red, causing a slight tingling sensation. I bought it to fight acne, as I had previously only tried ichthyol ointment. I can't say that having a heated face is necessarily bad, as increased blood circulation makes sense, but caution is needed. It is recommended to apply a moisturizing cream immediately afterwards to prevent dryness. I will continue to use it and will write another report on its effectiveness in the ongoing battle against acne.
This is a great product that really works for breakouts and dandruff, and the best part is the price is ridiculously low.
