I was really skeptical of this at first, the only other time I used a face wash bar left my face stripped of its natural moisture and it felt awful. Since starting to use this though, my face feels less tight and I don’t have to rush to get the moisturizer on like I did before. My skin is also clearing up a lot and my skin tone is becoming more even!

Like some other reviews mentioned, this can come apart easily if you’re not careful, but what I’ve found that helps alleviate that is to rub the bottom (where the water collects, leaving it really soft) on my face rather than the top and that has been working out very well for me.

Overall, I’ve been using this for at least 2 or 3 weeks and I absolutely love it, I will be buying more in the future!

Maybe user error?

No strong feelings about the hydrate face wash. It seems fine, but I'm not quite sure the best way to use it. It's not super pleasant to apply directly to my face, but rubbing it in my hands first doesn't seem like it works great either. Maybe I missed something!

Alright face wash

I have been looking for a solid face wash bar. I just used some natural soap bar with simple ingredients such as olive oil and others. Some worked fine and some dried and tightened my skin. I do like this one because it's plastic free packaging. It felt weird when I first used it because it doesn't lather up like regular soap. I initially thought my face wouldn't be cleaned because I didn't feel the lather. But I guess it's ok and I just need to get used to the feeling. My face does feel less tight after using it. So, I probably will continue using and order it.

SoWai, thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Hydrate face wash. Our Hydrate face wash is not meant to lather, but rather is a creamy cleanser. Hydrate still cleans the face without a lather.

If you prefer a lather, we recommend our Cleanse face wash. Lathering face washes are best for oily or acne-prone skin because it helps remove excess oil from the skin. However, they are not ideal for dry skin, because they can be very stripping and overly dry out skin.

Thank you for giving plastic-free a try!

So gentle

I love my HiBar shampoo and conditioner, and when I saw a face wash at my grocery store, I had to try it. I’m so glad I did! I love this stuff! It’s gentle and leaves my face soft and not at all tight. It cleans well and the best part: FRAGRANCE FREE!

This is fantastic to hear, Ninab! Sounds like the face wash is perfect for you, and so many positives! You can feel good about taking care of your skin and the planet!

They asked, we answered

  • Q: How were these bars formulated? 

    In developing these natural skin care products, we took a high end gentle amino acid-based face wash formula meant for a bottle, meant to be a liquid, and worked with it for over a year to make it a solid bar.

  • Q: Do your face wash bars contain fragrance? 

    No, all 3 facial bars are fragrance-free. Based on our studies we discovered that most users did not want a fragrance in their face washes.

  • Q: What is the pH level of your face wash?

    The pH is between 4.5 and 5.5, matching your skin's pH level.

  • Q: Can I use Renew as a daily face wash?

    Renew is a gentle exfoliating skin care face wash. It is recommended to be used a few times a week, just as you would any exfoliating face wash.

  • Q: Is ALL HiBAR packaging recyclable?

    Yes. In fact it's compostable as well. And we use plant-based inks. Our shipping materials are also either compostable, recyclable or biodegradable, including any packing tape or product protection. If it arrived in plastic, it did not come from us!

  • Q: Is HiBAR compostable?

    Our plastic free deodorant container is made from cardboard and is curbside compostable. They do compost and can be done at home, just like regular compost. But, if you are using the compost dirt to grow food, it’s probably best to use compost material like food scraps and other food grade, food by product material. You can compost our packaging to turn it back to the earth and use it as a filler somewhere.
