After a lifetime of rashes and breakouts (and not always in the most desirable places), I had my dermatologist culture a rash: I have "contact dermatitis," triggered by fragrances and additives in skincare and household products (even those advertised legitimately as "natural" and purchased at natural foods stores). I was told to change everything I used to clean and scent myself, with the Vanicream product line as the place to start. The Z-Bar is creamy and luxurious, and leaves me feeling no less clean and moisturized. Most importantly, I'm now rash-free.
For those with skin ailments, eliminating fragrances and additives -- and using the Z-Bar in the shower -- may be the place to start. Here's hoping! - (Was this review of use to you? If so, let me know by clicking "Helpful." Cheers!)
A natural redhead with very sensitive skin and finding anything that works for my acne topical has always been a nightmare. I tried this for my upper body and back acne that started to appear again after I went off birth control and this has made a WORLD of difference. I was getting acne so badly it would just turn into legitimate wounds on my breasts! Yeah, not cute. It was damaging my self esteem a lot so I tried this. I saw results right away seeing wounds that took weeks to heal, starting to finally really dry up and heal. My skin felt SOFT. The lather of this bar I really love and I’ve never used a bar of soap that leaves your skin feeling SOFT! It can dry your skin out if you use it regularly or often so get a sensitive skin friendly lotion like vanicream or anything else for sensitive skin that is none pore clogging. It usually dries out my neck the worst but I rather deal with some dryness over tons of uncomfortable, painful acne being mortified to wear a tank top or ever take my shirt off with a sexual partner. I feel way more confident in my skin now!!!

On first use, we washed her hair once with this to treat her scalp followed by a second wash with her normal fragrance free product. The bar soap rinsed out very quickly making the bath time go faster. I have to say this soap has a wonderful pure soap scent and her hair came out soft and less fly away than usual. It's so nice knowing it is fragrance free as well.
I think we will keep using this as it is easier than trying to squeeze their zinc shampoo out of the bottle and we like that they both have the zinc to treat the scalp.
This is what my curology expert said:
Zinc helps both ordinary acne as well as acne breakout made worse by pityrosporum (malassezia), a fungal organism commonly found on skin, as it has antimicrobial activity against acne-causing bacteria and fungus. Zinc may suppress sebum (oil) delivery from the sebaceous glands, perhaps by anti-androgenic activity.
Most people are not irritated by this, but do start gradually; use a 2% Pyrithione Zinc Bar Soap on the face / neck 3x a week in place of your regular cleanser (doesn't matter whether AM or PM). If your skin is not becoming dry or “tight,” you may use the zinc soap more often, even every day. Many people can use it daily, but some become a bit dry, so use your judgment. Lather the bar soap in your hands, apply to the face, and leave on for a minute or so before rinsing off. Keep the soap on a holder with perforations so it doesn’t stay damp, and give the bar a quick rinse before using.
