    After using Zest soap for decades I am now very disappointed with the product. It use to lather well, smell good and now hardly does either. They even changed the color from a nice looking green to some ugly pale green. They cheapened the formula, it does not give much lather anymore. They made a so called new hand hold by removing about 1/3 of the bar so you get less soap for your money in the same size box. They must think all Americans are stupid and can not figure out what the Proctor and Gamble company is really doing is saving company money. I would rather pay a few cents more per bar for a great soap product like they use to have than buy this cheap product they are selling now. I am now looking for another brand. Not a Proctor and Gamble product.

    I'm currently using zest body wash... It has a fresh scent, lathers great, but leaves my skin dry and itchy.

    This stuff is a very good bar soap but it will dry out your skin if you use too much ! Other than that it works great.

    I like Ivory. Don't like all those foofy smelly soaps. Feel like I need to wash again with all that perfume in them.

    We used to use it. It has tallowate (cow fat) in it. Gross. We use LOccitane now and love it. Our skin is not dried out and it cut down on shower scum buildup!

    Im happy to announce to you of the spring burst zest bar soap, its Great, it lathers well, and smells like spring, also, i tried there new body washes, one was a ocean breeze, and the other was a floral blossem scent, i never tried the citrus body wash of zest, someday i shall try it, im normally a dove and caress bar soap user, but due to this hot, muggy heat here in hawaii, zest sure comes in handy to make you feel clean, my Husband is one faithful user of zest, he likes the original blue, but i like the tropical fresh, and the spring burst, and sometimes the anti-bacterial bars, I sure hope zest company will manufacturer a body wash in anti-bacterial!! aloha!!

    Zest spring burst bar soap is my favorite soap ever! I used a body scrub pad in the shower each and every day, and the Zest creates mountains of lather! The lather lasts through the whole shower, and I feel super clean when I'm done! It does make my skin a little dry, but I always use a moisturizer, so it doesn't matter! The scent wakes me up in the morning, and it lifts my spirits! I look forward to my morning showers because my body scrubber really refreshes and energizes my skin, while the Zest wakes me up and leaves me clean! I love to clean my shower and tub, and I love to scrub, but Zest doesn't leave much buildup at all, so for some that would be a plus!

    Why do they claim to have a cleaner rinse than other soaps? I've used it before and it does nothing but make my skin tight and leave a gross waxy residue behind.

    I really like using Zest. It lathers very well and I enjoy the wide range of scents. It rinses very well and after a shower I feel clean and smooth. I highly recomment Zest for a great feeling of CLEAN!

    This soap is terrible! I was in the shower, and dropped it and it cracked and splintered to a billion little pieces. The scent is way to strong, and my skin felt tight after.

    Zest used to be better, it seems that their bar has gotten smaller and it leaves you with some sort of waxy residue on your skin.

    I love Zest! It smells great and keeps me feeling clean. However, I now only use it on my face. It does a pretty good job of keeping my face from becoming excessively oily.

    I'm a Coast user, and I tried Zest recently. Can't say that I like it. No lather, feels dry and generally do not get a clean sensation.

    Zest smells fine, but sometimes when you use it you can have a hard time getting a good lather, once you do it cleans fine. Another down fall to Zest is that it falls apart easier than other soaps I've used.

    I refuse to use any other soap. This is soap that should be on the cleaning aile of the store. This soap keeps my bathtub clean, I feel extremely clean after using it and I smell GREAT!! The different fragrances are awesome and I don't think there is another soap out there that could come close to competeing. This soap is "unrateable" if that's a word. Thank you for a job well done!!!

    Zest is quite alright. I like variety and I use alot of different soaps. Zest is one of my favorites because it really cleans your body and it does make ya feel good. The nice smell stays around all day but isn't overpowering. Zest is also gentle on my sensitve skin. Not bad eh?

    Zest rules! I grew up using it and still use it to this day! It obviously does a great job getting me clean because nobody has ever complained about my body odor. Plus, it leaves very little scum in the shower or tub, so you spend less time cleaning and scrubbing as you would with other soaps.

    It has less additives then most. I love the clean feeling after a shower.
