Olive Oil Soap Papoutsanis (12pcsx125g)

Tired of dry and itchy skin and the products I tried were not helping. I did a little research and found that olive oil soap was suppose to be very good for both. Tried a few different soaps that said they were pure olive oil, but found they actually had palm, coconut or other oils added as well as other things I could not pronounce. They did smell good, but did nothing for my skin. Found Papoutsanis on Amazon did some research and discovered it only had 4 ingredients all of which I could pronounce. Decided to give it a try. Can't tell you how happy I am that I did. Itchy dry skin has gone away. I gave a bar to my 82 year old mother who was having the same problem and she is just as happy. I also gave it to my aunt and a friend and they are now using it. I know some people have complained about the smell, but all I can detect is a faint earthy smell that is gone by the time you are done drying off. It is great in the shower it does not turn to mush like other soaps and it also seems to last longer. I have used it to wash my hair and it makes it squeaky clean and leaves no scent in my hair. I have just ordered 12 more bars so that I don't run out. Can't believe how fast it got here considering it comes from Greece. Would highly recommend this soap.

Smells ok for olive oil soap. Not overpowering. I use for wet felting and this is by far my preferred brand.

This soap is so moisturizing and silky feeling. It smells like all natural olive oil soap bars do, and I kinda like that—a natural, clean, slightly herbaceous, kinda earthy scent. It's not overpowering though and doesn't linger noticeably after rinsing. Just leaves your skin feeling moisturized, with no film or greasy feeling left behind. There is a bigger version of the bar (8.8oz vs. this one at 4.4oz), which I prefer as the thick ones tend not to melt in the shower/soap dish environment, but always take castile soaps out of packaging and store them open to the air for as long as possible before use (2-3 weeks is best). This "cures" them and makes them last longer in a wet environment. It cleanses well, is very moisturizing, a decent price comparitively, and doesn't disintegrate the way lower quality castile soaps can. I saw a couple reviews stating that this soap.. burned their skin or had some extremely drying effect? I can only assume they received a knockoff product seller with a tainted product pretending to sell Papoutsanis (unfortunately still happens on here; always check your sellers) or maybe have a previously unknown allergy to olives/olive oil. The soap only contains olive oil, water, salt and citric acid and absolutely felt like those were the only ingredients to me.

I’m allergic to coconut and most soaps have coconut derived products in them so I was so happy to find this one I use it on my hair and body because it is olive oil based and it works for both , it feels divine on the skin, cleanses really well, and has a natural olive oil scent. I like that it still lathers like regular soap. Now the cons is the size isn’t that big it’s on the smaller end for soaps and it doesn’t last long at all. Will still repurchase and still love it.

I love this soap! It DOES dry out your hands... (But I've found that EVERY SINGLE Olive Oil bar soap does!) For some reason, I had this intuition to try to wash a Crystal Glass with this soap (using a dish BRUSH) and it worked SO MUCH BETTER than ANY liquid dish soap I've ever tried! I've never seen that crystal glass look so shiny and new! AMAZING! I still use the soap for my hands too. I like how clean my hands feel, but you definitely will have to lotion (or petroleum jelly - which I use) you hands afterward! I also love the natural smell. I know some people don't like the smell, but Americans are so used to highly scented soaps. Get used to NATURAL smells Americans! It's LOVELY! Earthy!

The first couple uses were AWESOME, so clean, lots of suds, then after that, it didn't have any power. Used it for another week and then cut in half to see if I just hit a "bad layer", nope, still didn't clean. Maybe I got a bad one, not sure, but I can't recommend and I won't reorder.

Good value for a great quality soap. I use it on my body and face. It is so moisturizing and makes my skin feel great, which at 62 is very important. I won’t use any other cleanser.

So I love that this soap is an olive oil soap, I use a lot of Mediterranean and indian soaps, so the smell doesn't bother me, it smelled like a shoe box with some other form of odor that i have forgotten, the lather wasn't as sudsy as wanted it, which I expected, because that was the one thing in the reviews everyone seemed to agree with, but to get to the juicy part, this soap was not at all moisturizing, I don't know what people are talking about, perhaps they are comparing it against something,maybe because they love the idea of the soap, but it left my skin feeling squeaking clean and a bit tight, now what I will give it, is that even though my skin felt squeaky clean, there was this in between texture to my skin almost as if, like drying but I'm doing my best to leave you with something, maybe a tiny bit of the olive oil,but still very drying, and I am comparing the moisture that I feel a soap should leave you with,to caress and Amish farms soap

I have very dried skin and eczema often flares up. After a week using this product, I can see an improvement on my skin. It's no longer scaly and dry like before and there is less itchiness.

Great soap, doesn’t strip the skin

Lovely soap, great quality, pure product. I have not found a better soap

何度もリピしています。 以前はマルセイユ石けんを自分で使っていたのですが、オリーブオイルが高くなり過ぎ、またかき混ぜるのも大変で、色々と試していました。 こちらが、自作していた石けんの洗い上がりに近くて、しっとりします。 お安いし、大満足しています。 ただ、香りは原料のかおりで、香料は入っていないので、自然派好みの方に良いと思います。

Solid pure Olive Oil soap bars. Greek Quality that outlasts most bars, and keeps its fragrance even when the bar has shrunk.
