Product Overview
This deep cleansing bar soap is another of the best acne wash available and a great product for those who not only have Acne in their face, but their body as well.
Just like the name suggests this soap is designed to deep clean your pores removing all dirt and bacteria that can cause acne.
This deep cleansing soap doesn’t dry your skin making it a great choice for all skin types. The soap is very effective and does not have any strong smells like some of those gimmicky soaps that only make you smell different for a few minutes and give no benefits to your skin.
While there are a good deal of acne washes a lot of them are not really for use outside of your face, you will simply waste too much product covering your whole body while this wash is a bar soap it should last you quite a while.
So Why This Product?
I started using this product after the Cetaphil antibacterial soap was discontinued, I didn’t notice much of a difference in ingredients between this soap and the antibacterial, so I started using it and found great results with it.
After using the antibacterial soap for many years I have found a great replacement on the Cetaphil family of products, if you were a fan of the antibacterial soap the deep cleansing soap will certainly help you.
I notice there isn’t as many reviews of this product as other Cetaphil products, which leads me to think it is not as popular, but now that it has shown to be as effective as the antibacterial soap it will pick up on popularity, so I’ve been using it as my face and body wash soap for a while seeing better results than when I was using a regular body wash.
The Cetaphil brand is a very trusted brand with many amazing products that just work.
You will certainly notice if this product works for you within a week, yes, it is very effective.
Tips and Tricks
Always before and after using any hand soap always make sure you wash it a bit first, this will remove any coating of bacteria that formed around the bar soap when it dried and after you’re done cleaning yourself.
Scrubbing your body and face while applying the soap is very important, massaging your face in circular motion while applying the soap will ensure the soap enters your pores more efficiently, let the soap sit on your face for a little then rinse off.
Rather than using shaving cream or any other product that might react with your skin this soap is a great thing to use for shaving. I simply let it foam up in my face then shave, it is smooth enough that it will give you a great shave all while you are washing your face.
I mentioned you will see results within a week, but you should still try to use for at least a month before deciding if its for you or not.
Lastly, some people might get a reaction to certain soaps or chemicals, if you notice any redness after a few uses, stop using the product.
Like always, do not forget the importance of a moisturizer, you can find the best one in the Red/Dry Skin page. While this product will keep your skin soft it does not have the SPF protection acne prone or scarred skin needs.
If you’re looking for other great products do check the Acne and Scars page, they are fully loaded with more tips, products and information.
Final Thoughts
The Deep Cleansing Soap is a great product to add to your treatment, its’s very effective against Acne. It is gentle, smells wonderful and its deep cleaning properties will make your shower and face routine an easy effective one.
This soap can be used as a full body wash, helping those with Acne in other parts of their body or just as an effective cleaning soap for the whole body, either way you can’t go wrong with this product.
Why continue having to use multiple products for different parts of your body when you can cover everything with one effective soap? this is a fantastic product that will give you results.
As always don’t hesitate to comment or ask any questions and I know this can be another powerful product on your path to Beautiful Clear Skin.
Hi Victor,
My face breaks out all the time, I have tried just about everything. I will definitely give this product a try as well.
Your tips and tricks are awesome. I never knew I should let the soap sit on my face for a little bit, I just always washed it right off.
I also never thought about a bar of soap to wash it before using it. Sounds simple but never thought of it like that.
Great ideas, I look forward to trying Cetaphil
All the best

Hey Ann,
I’m really liking this soap and I know you will too. I try to focus on giving tips and tricks to make the products more effective and easier to use, hope you like it, thanks for reading.
One of my family members had serious issues with acne. She actually used this product and got great results. At first it didn’t work as good until she did exactly what you mentioned about cleaning first. Once she cleaned before use, she had great success. I always asked why didn’t she do that in the first place? She was young teenager and I can say she is doing good now. Good information! Thank you!
