For the boys
Date: February 23, 2012
"My husband loves this. He used to have a lot of breakouts on his legs and waistline. Since starting this his skin has improved significantly. It doesn't have much of a scent so its not really my type of body wash but it is perfect for men."

"(I am a Male)
I had struggled with minor-moderate body acne for a while, and finally spent the money on this body wash. Wow! After the first week I was so excited- my skin felt smooth and was clear. I can not believe it worked! I am on my second bottle (about a month later) and can't imagine washing without it. Also, it smells incredible! Seriously, worth every penny."

Love this stuff!!
Date: September 27, 2011
"I could go on and on about how much I love this product! I'm a girl and I still use this body wash. I have tried everything under the sun to clear my back up and this is the only product that works! I saw results within the first day or two. I just use this wash once a day and my skin stays clear! Even after sweating at the gym. Its amazing and smells great too! I'll use this stuff for as long as they make it."

Best Body Wash I've Used
Date: August 19, 2011
Tags: summertime
"If this body wash came in bulk size, I would seriously invest in purchasing it. This is by far the best body wash I have ever used. My skin is fairly normal (dry in the winter months with little need for moisturizer in the summer), so I wasn't looking for a body wash to fix a particular concern. However, I was impressed enough to repurchase this item. Because of the price, I tend to alternate using this body wash with a few less expensive alternatives, but nothing comes close to the silky smooth, clean feeling I get after using the charcoal wash. My skin glows just a little bit more after using it. After a long workout, it's also a great way to draw out the impurities."

Good product, but not worth the price.
Date: September 7, 2010
Tags: All Skin Types
"I loved the packaging, the manly black color of the gel, and even the idea of activated charcoal, using something dirty to get clean. That being said my order was about $25 with shipping. The bottle was about 6/8th's full. Which isn't a big deal except that it costs about 4 times more for 2/3rds less than the stuff I am used to buying, so I wish it was completely full, like it appears in the picture. The scent was close to black licorice, which might appeal to some guys, but not me so much. I understand the idea here is quality over quantity but just didn't feel something that cleans your skin and washes down the drain should cost $25. Other than that I felt the product worked reasonably well, left my skin clean, and without a oily or overly moisturized chemical residue. Just clean which was nice."

"This has a great, refreshing scent, yet not overbearing. Great for a daily body wash. I wish this would last more than 1.5 months for the price...trying the bar next time for better value..."

Simple, rinses clean, great for men or women
Date: June 27, 2010
Tags: All Skin Types, men and women
"Slightly minty with a little earthy rosemary, this is the perfect body wash!
The charcoal deep cleans (even better with a sponge/washcloth/shower pouf), and dosen't leave a smell on your skin or dry you out. For a fresh, fragrance-free (once I'm dressed) start to the day I use Skin Diver & Precipitation body lotion.
I live in Michigan; it gets unbearably hot & HUMID & sticky sometimes in the summer. I use skin Diver morning and night to feel fresh & clean -- simple, not perfume-y, just CLEAN."

"I purchased this product for my teenage son. We have tried virtually every bath gel on the market but none cleaned and absorbed the hockey odors like your charcoal body wash. It also does not dry out his skin (he takes two showers per day) and has helped with his acne breakouts as well."

Great for acne prone skin

"I've always dealt with either clogged pores or acne prone face and back and never have been able to find one solution. For my my back I've even had microdermabrasion and have tried all kinds of gentle, rough, and for acne type of body washes. In my search for the right body wash that would finally work I came across this skin diver active charcoal body wash and in about 1 1/2 week I noticed ALL of my skins impurity's began to disappear. Soon I was able to wear muscle shirts and tank tops without a wondering what others might be thinking about all the marks on my shoulders. I LOVE this body wash and more so origins in general!"

"I use this everyday and it is not just for men. The scent is nice not overbearing. I have used this for about two weeks and it has helped with my bacne. I have not had any major breakouts because it cleans all the dirt and grime and controls the oil. I would recommend this to people who have oily skin and tend to breakout especially when it is summer."
