“Very hard to use as doesn’t lather. Too mild a peppermint scent for my tastes.”

Hi Kay, Thanks for your feedback! We're sorry it didn’t lather as expected and that the peppermint scent wasn’t quite strong enough for your taste. We really appreciate you giving it a try and sharing your thoughts — it helps us improve! Warm regards Mikaela-Team gruum

“This stuff is amazing in really hot weather. I first tried it on holiday in Europe last summer, but last week (June 25) during the heatwave I used it again. It's a lovely soap with very little lather that cleans the skin very well but the peppermint and menthol in it means that when the breeze hits your skin as you get out of the shower it has a cooling effect. Using Sval before bed helped me get a good night's sleep.”

“Really good product, used after showering with wet legs. Rinsed off after about a minute and was such a refreshing feeling.”

“As a peri-menopausal woman I get very hot after a shower. I get overheated and sweaty when getting dressed and drying my hair and end up feeling like I need another shower. This wash bar has been brilliant for keeping me cool while I get ready.”

“A little disappointed as there is no ‘creamy’ layer despite using this bar for 4 weeks. I do not think it will ever wear out as it’s like using a smooth pebble.”

“Certainly fresh and minty but is so strong the coldness continues after a shower and cold burns the skin a little. Also, if you don't like applying aftersun as a bar, instead of a liquid, it's not for you.”

“Just tried this bar after a day in the sun of Mexico. Wow.. the heat has gone instantly and it has taken the sting out of the sunburn.. think I may be using this all night as the refreshing coolness it brings is wonderful .. take one with you on a sunny holiday for sure. Highly recommended.”
