Written by Husband of Amazon Member: Since we moved to a different state and I got bit by a hobo spider I began getting skin infections. Once or twice a year I'd have to go to the doctor because I'd get an irritated ingrown that would turn to a skin infection. It's been horrible. Painful, embarrassing, and sometimes terrifying, always inconvenient. I'm an extremely hygienic person, i like to get dirty but I always clean up. I even shower on camping trips! I find a way. So this has been a nightmare. I used to wash with antibacterial soap, then I tried all kinds of different soaps. In a flush of desperation sprinkled with hope, I found Defense Soap. The fact it was created by a Wrestling Coach for wrestlers and martial artists as well as gym rats it was already speaking my language. I've been all of those except a wrestler and shockingly never got a skin infection but wonder if maybe thats what made me a mrsa carrier. Since taking this, I've never had a skin infection anywhere that I've used it. It's worked amazingly well. It smells great, it's incredibly concentrated. It lasts a long time . I have been using it for over a year and will continue to use it. You only need a small amount and it does take a little longer to lather it up but lather it does. Tons! Don't go nuts with it because it will get there just gotta put a little work into it. It's not cheap but if you use a small amount (dime to quarter size depending on what you prefer) and lather up, add a small amount of water, lather a bit more...you'll find you dont need much and it'll last you a while. One bottle lasts me about two months. Which is excellent. I'm happy to spend $8-9 / month to have peace of mind, healthy skin, and smell good right out of the shower! I can't thank the creator of this product enough...truly. It's been hell dealing with this issue and being worried all the time about another inflamed ingrown. Being a clean freak I have driven myself up the walls over the years since these outbreaks began and now I'll be two years without anything anywhere I've used it. God Bless you guys, truly! Read more

Great product. Just ordered an extra bottle since I now started using it as a shampoo as well. Feel nice on the scalp and has ingredients that get rid of the build up other shampoos can cause that blocks hair follicles. It lathersand cleans really well, and is a big bottle, so it goes a long way. Read more

I work in healthcare and see all kinds of communicable diseases and rashes. I also have sensitive skin and sweat A LOT. I work 12-14 hour shifts and walk 10-12k steps per day. I was looking for a wash that could keep me clean whilst helping with the occasional skin breakout. This product arrived quickly and I used it without hesitation. Within a week, my rash cleared up and my sweat no longer smells. I never smelled horribly as I showered twice a day, but I had an odor that was present, if that makes sense. Defense has a tingling sensation occasionally but I don’t think the smell is as strong as others have claimed. I use lotion over it as well as perfume. Now it’s a part of my daily hygiene routine! I swear by it Read more

Only been using this soap for a week, already noticed reduced odor when exercising! My skin feels so clean and nurtured. Only thing I can say bad about it is it is roughly four times the cost of a budget soap. That being said I think the product is far superior and I will continue to use it, already purchased the peppermint scented in a 32oz bottle! Read more

Soap is great I would have given 5 stars but both bottles were leaking and not completely full. Soap seems to work well and leaves you feeling completely clean. Read more

If you have skin issues or a driver like myself who can’t always take a bath every day this is the best soap out there. All of my skin issues have cleared up after using this product. My skin feels refreshing and clean all day and into the next when I use this soap. It’s very effective and a must buy! Read more
