A beast of a bar, this facial soap is a mighty body care product. Activated charcoal is highly absorptive, allowing it to draw impurities and toxins from the skin. It also reduces pore size and makes skin tighter and firmer.

Our Story

From humble beginnings

Our story begins long before Saltspring Soapworks did: Four generations ago with a grandmother and a farm. Using beef tallow and ash, she handcrafted soap—a legacy that was handed down to her granddaughter and our founder, Linda Quiring. The simplicity of our beginnings remains the essence of our remedies today.

Lasts forever!

I've never had a bar of soap last me so long, I've had this as a face soap for a year now and I even use a lot every time, I don't know how it's still going! It also lathers very well and can remove makeup.

so good

Love this soap, for me with normal skin and my partner with acne prone skin it suits us both and its always in our routine, for years now, and for years to come!

Charcoal soap

This charcoal soap leaves you feeling fresh and clean. It has exactly what you need to replenish your skin and smells amazing like everything else at Salt Spring Soapworks!

Amazing

This soap has been a life saver for me I have food intolerances that makes my skin break out this soap has given me 24 hour of itch relief it’s amazing and a relief please don’t ever stop making this soap
Truly thankful

Awesome

I received a trio of soaps last year for Christmas. I use the charcoal soap in the shower too. I’ve had some issues with my nervous system and weird body odour so I tried this when my long standing antibacterial soap was not working. This soap is a keeper and has helped me control the odour as well it has not dried out my skin like my other soap. I know it has been designed for faces but it’s great everywhere and is gentle enough for all parts in the shower.

I cut back on plastics and have been using your charcoal neroli soap for my face for 3 years. Love it! Great for combination skin. Not at all drying.

Love it!

I’ve been using my bar for a couple weeks now and I am enjoying it. It lathers up nicely and hasn’t irritated or dried out my skin.

Best Bar Soap for Washing Your Face

Excellent product; wouldn't go back to any other product for washing my face. Highly recommended!

Love it!

Have been using happily for years

I really like this soap for my acne prone skin. I found drug store products to be too harsh while not seeing great results. I think this soap reduces breakouts while not over drying.

Best acne product I’ve found!

I’m in my 30s and have been trying to figure out the best ans most natural way to care for my acne prone, sensitive, combination skin since my teens. I’ve tried an endless combination of products and usually return to my medicated cream that seems to work the best.

After a month of using the Neroli Facial bar in combination with the Saltspring Kaolin mud mask twice a week, my skin has cleared, the texture of my skin has drastically improved and my skin is hydrated, smooth and my pores are significantly smaller. My skin feels so healthy and I’m so happy about it.

Thanks Salt Spring!

Love it! 💕 is

I love this soap sooo much! I really can feel how my whole body gets detoxified! And it’s also feels unusual to use a black coloured soap :) pretty exotic! Love it! 💕

Not for dry flaky skin/cystic acne

Lovely bar, and I love the scent of Neroli. However, it unfortunately irritated my sensitive, dry, flaky skin, and worsened my cystic acne. I knowingly took this risk - the sales associate hadn't received any feedback about how this bar affects very sensitive, problematic skin. I will still seek out your other products!

Hello Heather, and thank you for taking the time to review our products.
You are correct that this product was, in fact, not the right choice for your skin type. We are grateful our associate was honest about their lack of knowledge of this product and your specific skincare needs. We hope our training can improve because of a message like yours. Given your particular skin type, I would recommend our Mandarin Rosehip Facial Cleanser as both hydrating and gently cleansing. You could also follow up with a very light face cream to hydrate the dryest areas of your skin.
Warmly, Amber.

One of the best cleansers for oily/combo skin i've ever used!

I stumbled across this soap in a gift shop on Salt Spring and thought I would give it a try after using something similar from Lush. This facial bar has now become a daily staple in my skin care routine, replacing my Paula's Choice and korean skin care cleansers. Its perfect for oily/combo skin - it really does reduce blemishes, blackheads and pores but is not drying or stripping at all. Its an amazing product for $8 dollars and lasts forever. It has replaced my previous cleansers that ran from $30-50.

Thank you for your generous review! Warmly, Amber.

Best face soap

I bought this soap originally for my husband, but I ended up using it. I’ve been using this to clean my face for 2 years, and I love it! It doesn’t dry out your face it has the perfect ph balance, it cleans so nicely! Your soap bars last so long, I use it twice a day for over a year and still have a little left. Thank you for making such quality product

Great!

I bought this facial soap not realizing it was for men. I love it, it doesn't have a strong scent and leaves your face feeling soft and really clean.

Thank you for your review Jenny. We do plan to package this soap for all in the near future. But anyone can use it now !!!!!
