Auto-translated from the reviewer's original audio

I'm going to share my experience, of course, after using it for a month and a half or more, the licorice extract soap. Of course, one of the reasons that made me buy it is that many people praised it for unifying skin tone and brightening it with continued use, especially in dark areas.

But so far, I haven't seen any results, to be honest. Of course, it has licorice and shea butter for moisturizing. For the first three uses, it gave me an amazing glow on my body and about 20% moisturization. After that, it stopped. I don't see any benefit for moisturizing the body anymore. It cleanses, of course, it cleanses very well, but the problem is I haven't seen any unifying results from it.

And after that, I started to feel that I had to moisturize twice a day so that my skin wouldn't be too dry after using the soap. Of course, this is the first jar, and this is the second. Its size, wow, or its volume is about 500 ml. For its price, I bought it for around 30 riyals from Nahdi. Its size is really, really good, it lasts a long time, the quantity is generous.

This is a new jar, of course, I haven't used it at all. Of course, among the things they mentioned on the website is that it's suitable for sensitive skin. My skin, of course, is not sensitive. But even so, it's good and cleanses, but anyone who wants to buy it for unifying skin tone, I honestly don't recommend it.

I haven't seen any results in unifying. On the contrary, my skin is the same, except that it made me moisturize twice a day. To avoid dryness. The glow it gives is also nice. Its scent, for me, I don't like it. Its scent isn't bad, but it's a mix of licorice and shea butter scent. So those who like them will like these scents and will like the soap.

Of course, it's a set. Maybe if I bought the whole set, I would see results. I only used this soap. I'll open it and show you how generous the quantity is inside. Of course, its packaging is really great, mashallah tabarakallah. The quantity is full to the top, even the lid.

So its scent is acceptable, or good. But for me, I don't like these scents. And it's true that it doesn't stay on the body, but when it mixes with water, what a smell comes out! So it will suit people who like shea butter. I feel the shea butter in it more, its scent is more prominent.

So this is mashallah tabarakallah, a good quantity, and it's 500 ml.

Celia Soap Bar Review Summary

I tried Celia soap bar, which contains Greek licorice extract. I found it suitable for all skin types, especially sensitive skin, and it didn't cause any irritation. However, I didn't find it to be an exceptional product that I'd stick with, and I believe I'll look for alternatives in the future. The quality was average compared to other products, but it serves its purpose well for those looking for a gentle soap.

Worth it if you're looking for a gentle soap suitable for sensitive skin, but don't expect spectacular results.
