Falls short on so many levels, but it does smell nice

By Derrick H., Lenox, MA, Verified Reviewer

All in all, I found this product to be missing on so many different levels. Before using their products, I happened to clean out the shower pipes, which were running beautifully. After three months of using their products, the drainage is significantly slower. That's because many of their products leave a soap residue. It's especially pronounced with a black soap because you can see it staining the shower after as little as one use.

The company may be onto something in terms of trying to get buy-in from the public. Unfortunately, the products have to stand up on their own, and almost every product has issues. I bought three soaps, the wooden soap holder, and the complete shave kit with face soap, mug, and brush. The shaving soap works well; however, the mug is oversized, and the brush holder is minimalist.

They are working from the Apple playbook. You are to become an early adaptor, happy to promote their products and buy frequently. Unfortunately, the items of value to me were the green soap holder (it does keep soap bars from sliding out of your hands), and the wooden soap tray is good to have. As far as everything else, too many minor issues when trying to justify buying more.

Length of Use: 3–6 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

The smell of the IPA and forest soaps

Shave soap is nice

Boxing from recycled papers

It created a drain issue in the shower, noticeably slower

The black soap leaves a stain in the shower

The IPA crumbled into shards of soap, useless at the end

Ehhh

By Danny V., Heber Springs, AR, Verified Reviewer

I bought a sample kit with different types of soap. To me, it smells like Irish Spring, except for the Bay Rum, which I liked. It is not worth 7 bucks a bar regardless. If you do buy, get the Bay Rum.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Good but bad

By Bo P., Kansas City, MO, Verified Reviewer

I received 3 bars for Christmas and I will say they smell and feel amazing but only after 5 showers the first bar is gone. I feel for how much the soap costs it should last longer than a week. If you have enough money, which is around $43 for 5 bars, then this is the soap for you. After my little stash of soap is gone I will not be getting more.

Great soap but grossly overpriced

By Alex D. , Kalamazoo, MI

I got a few bars and the shampoo conditioner pack and it’s a good product, but the cost is just outrageous and I can get other all-natural soaps for half the price, and the bars actually last more than seven uses. I’m upset. I was so excited that I found a good soap but then my 7 oz bar is gone after one week of showers. Great soap if you like spending a lot of money to be clean. I on the other hand feel the company is overpriced for the simple soaps they make.

Thought I'd give it a try

By Robert G., Florida, Verified Reviewer

To begin with, over $11 for 1 bar of soap. That includes shipping, but come on! I left the same review on their website – too expensive for what you get, smells no better than Irish Spring, doesn't get me any cleaner. And once again, way too expensive! If you use a washcloth, you might get 5 lathers out of that $10 bar of soap. Customer service wanted to make it right by sending me another bar, but once burned...

Update

By Damon W., Ohio, Verified Reviewer

I got the soap and it’s amazing. Order and expect it to take a few weeks to get to you. Once it does, make sure you place your next order a few weeks before you are out. I highly recommend the pine tar. It comes off black but rinses clear and leaves you clean and smelling amazing.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great soap, doesn't last

By Will H., Houston, TX, Verified Reviewer

I fell in love with the idea that it was finally a soap that could heal my dry skin and also give me a manly scent. I was not disappointed.

But then I realized how quickly the soap dissolves. One week. That's how long a single bar lasts. Even with the soap saver.

I only wish it would last longer.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Not sure what everyone else is doing...

By Mike A., USA, Verified Reviewer

I received some bars for Christmas 2020. I am still on my first bar of soap. Granted, my wife was awesome enough to get me the soap saver as well. I use it in the shower only for my body (again, my amazing wife got me separate shampoo), and sometimes use it on a scrub-sponge thing or just the bar itself. Afterward, I place it above the ledge in the corner above and opposite the showerhead. Yes, the soap is softer, but after daily use, I think I am going to use it up in about a week or two. It is now February. With that being said, that bar has lasted for 30+ days/30 showers (at least).

I also just found out that they give Military/EMS/PD a 10% discount on all products which is cool.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Great product (superior)

Better/safer alternative

Advertising (necessary evil, though we pay for it)

Cost is a bit higher (but its a better product)

Pricey but worth it so far

By Josh H., New Market, AL, Verified Reviewer

So the only reason I didn't give 4 stars is because shipping took 17 days and it was $10 for one bar of pine tar with shipping. So, negatives out of the way, I received my bar and the first thing I did was smell it right out of the pack, which was a bit mild but smelled great. Then I practically ran to the shower to try it because I had been waiting so long. Anyway, this stuff lathers so great with so little soap and smelled alot stronger in the shower, which I loved. Overall I am happy and will be ordering some more soap scents to try as well as deodorant and shampoo/conditioners to try as well.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Lots of lather with little soap

Pine tar scent

Very good

By Kaleb W., Gresham, OR, Verified Reviewer

I have very sensitive skin, most other soap companies honestly suck. In-store all-natural soap is insanely expensive and the smells that I like, the "men’s" smells, are typically so fake smelling. I decided to give them a try, 7 bucks a bar isn’t too bad considering that it came to me in less than a week. I got two bars - Spearmint Basil, which smells like a tea, and Cedar Citrus, which honestly smells like a cedar tree rubbed with orange. It didn’t last all that long, which is a shame because I loved the smell. However, I can forgive them because the soap is much softer and rubs very well on my skin. After the first couple of washes, my skin became much smoother. I would honestly go for a subscription after I try all the different smells. I have recommended not only to my close friends but also my dad who had skin like mine but also wants organic natural soap.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love it

By Wade S., Richmond, VA, Verified Reviewer

I have loved Dr. Squatch's soap! Love the variety of scents, and my skin feels so much better. It doesn't last as long as I'd like but I'm fine with paying a little extra to feel this good. Cant wait to get my next order in!
