Vanicream Z Bar, Seborrheic Dermatitis & Anti-Dandruff Medicated Bar, 3.5 Oz, Formulated without Common Irritants for Sensitive Skin, 2% Pyrithione Zinc Helps Relieve Itching, Redness & Flaking

Honestly I tried this out of being desperate. My skin flares so easily and can be very painful. I do a lot of steps in my skin routine just to be comfortable to move my face to smile. But I'm always looking for the next thing that will help treat not just manage. When i first tired it, it felt different then I'm used to. I thought it may be drying my skin out too much. But it wasn't too pricey to try and I seen a lot of older methods treating it with a z bar (or similar just different brand) but it's not used a ton anymore. So I figured one or two more tries and if i5 stills feel wrong I would just toss it. Boy am I happy I waited. Just the same day but the end of the night for my next skin care routine. My face didn't feel that address anymore AND it didn't feel dirty and dry and most importantly not painful in any way. I continued to use it about a handful more times and I'm thrilled with the results. It truly makes my skin feel better and I find a lot less build up at the end of the day. It really manages that layer of my skin. I'm so disappointed cause I've tried such expensive methods. And this has been so helpful. I do still do my additional cares (toner, moisturizer, etc) after every wash which probably makes a difference too. But that's more I find has benefit my the most. But this soap is really going to help in thay deeper level. I can feel the difference. Will be buying more and more!

For anyone with rolls or larger breasts, this is great to keep on hand. Even with daily washing and scrubbing (please shower daily) you can still get yeast infections anywhere where skin overlaps. You will not be able to get rid of a yeast infection with normal soap. That's where the Z bar comes in. Its anti-fungal (yeast is a fungus) and using it daily can slowly clear mild yeast based skin infections. Note: this is not a replacement for medical advice, please check with a medical professional before using this to ensure what you have is actually a yeast infection. I apply a lather of the z bar soap to the affected area when it happens and let it sit on the skin while doing the rest of my routine. Please keep in mind that it will A) take a while to work because yeast infections are extremely stubborn and B) you MUST keep the area as clean and dry as possible throughout the day. As for the soap itself, it has no noticeable scent after rinsing/drying that I've noticed. This is also a MUCH more affordable treatment than the liquid serums or using anti-dandruff shampoo (which often uses the same active ingredient). It lasts a long time as long as you keep it out of water so it can dry when not in use. If you put it in a place in the shower where water continually runs on it, its going to dissolve much quicker (like literally any bar soap). All in all, and great thing to keep in your medicine cabinet or bathroom sink.

This soap has honestly been a game changer for my skin. I started using it after a dermatologist recommended it because I was getting rashes on my face, and almost immediately after switching, the rashes cleared up. I’ve always been someone who used traditional foam or gel cleansers, so I was unsure about moving to a bar soap, but this one completely changed my mind. It’s very gentle, doesn’t leave my skin feeling tight or stripped, and my face feels calm and comfortable after washing instead of irritated. If you have sensitive or reactive skin, this is absolutely worth trying. It’s one of the few products I’ve used where I saw a noticeable improvement rather than just “maintenance.” Pros: • Helped clear facial rashes quickly • Very gentle and non-irritating • Doesn’t dry out my skin • Dermatologist recommended Cons: • Currently out of stock (hoping it comes back soon) Overall, I’ll definitely continue to use this and repurchase as soon as it’s available again. I’m really glad I gave this a try.

I saw a video of a gal slathering on H&S shampoo on her face for seborrheic dermatitis but that is a great way to irritate your skin. In fact, there's another video of a dermatologist recommending you don't do that and instead use this exact bar for your face; it's fragrance-free and a lot gentler. I use it on my body as well.

I want to preface this review by sharing that I have struggled with my skin my whole life and do many many things to keep my face (and overall skin) acne/folliculitis-free, including but not exclusive to hormonal birth control, aloe gel, hyaluronic acid, sulphur, etc. Having said all that, using this bar has made a noticeable difference. I have less redness, less inflammation, and overall it gives me a brighter, healthier complexion. After washing, I use a very light moisturizer and my skin looks so much calmer than it ever has. The craziest part is that ChatGPT recommended it! Never knew this product existed before that! Lastly, I'm only giving it four stars because it is not the only product I use and it's not a miracle (nothing is, unfortunately!), BUT this bar has proved itself to be a very worthy and welcome part of my skin routine. I can see the difference every time I use it!

So far I have been using this for about 2 weeks now and it works good the fungal acne I had on my face it’s not itching and pimples are fading away

This product is amazing! I have seborrheic dermatitis, so I first tested it on my eyebrows to check for any reaction. My eyebrows did tingle a bit, but I decided to ride it out, and I’m glad I did. While it doesn’t completely eliminate my seborrheic dermatitis, it helps tremendously by keeping the peeling and flakes away for quite a while. Although it’s not specifically intended for this, I also noticed that it reduced the bumps on my forehead caused by fungal acne and helped dry out my pimples and pustules from hormonal acne. I use it exactly as instructed, and it works well alongside my other skincare products. It’s very very drying but I have a good moisturizer. I love this soap and will never stop purchasing it.

Amazing product! Really feels like it does a whole lot of good cleaning and healing for my skin disorder, without hurting my skin. I leave it on for 2-3 minutes before rinsing off, just to make sure it’s doing the job. (Only downside is that it’s quite expensive)
