Still too pricey but a great product
I've been using Redken Brews Mens Cleaning Bars since 1970, when they were know simply as Redken Mens Bars. They are still the same great alternative to conventional soaps for people with sensitive skin like mine. My issues are with the limited quantities one can get in an order even on LovelySkin.com it is a max of 6. I can understand not wanting someone reselling it but there are those of us who need it daily all year long and does not last anywhere as long as conventional soaps. In all the years I've used it the product has not really gone though any significant change in its composition and Redken has reduced the packaging waste to make it eco-friendly and cheaper to produce. Yet the cost keeps skyrocketing - from a fixed price of about $5 per bar in the 1990s to about $10 in 2010 (and only available through licensed beautician), to about $12 per bar in 2018 (when Redken finally allowed some retail an online sites to sell it to the public) at current (2022-2022) pricing that generally runs $18 to $35 a bar. While it is nice to find a site like LovelySkin.com offering them at a more reasonable price $10 - 11 each, it is evident that Redken has lost control of the end pricing of its product and the issue of resellers changing the entire pricing model. Other products are still traded both brick-and-mortar and online as single prices so this is could be fixed.

Redken Brews Mens Bar
I absolutely love this soap even being that I'm a woman. Leaves my skin so smooth & soft. After using this soap I can't imagine using anything else.

Superior Syndet Bar
This ticks all the boxes as my favorite bar ‘soap’; very mild, yet rich surfactant cleanser (used in better baby bars), skin-friendly acidic pH level, and clean, masculine fragrance. Definitely on the pricey side, so stock up during the (fairly frequent) 20% off sales.

For women also
I have been using this soap for 2 weeks now and I love it...when I was a teenager I used Redken Amono Pons sadly they don't make it anymore. Anyway I will now be using this soap. It smells good an the lather it great. Try it, you won't be sorry.

50 years!!!
I was introduced to this product in 1971 by a hairdresser in Beverly Hills. Until recently it was known simply as the “Redken Men’s Bar” but the same great scent and formula seem to have survived the rebranding. In addition to the great results for my hair & body (yes, I use all over) the smell is just what I want: not overpowering, makes it’s presence known and isn’t “perfumey”. Obviously, I wouldn’t still be using it 50 years later if I didn’t like it a LOT!!!

Wonderful product
I haven't used this product for many years and was happy to find out its still available. So gentle, and wonderful for my skin. A little lather over a blemish or irritated skin and it clears the area.

I Love this soap. I am a woman, it is NOT JUST FOR MEN!! I have used this for years, and I use it regularly, but conservatively due to the price. I don't leave it setting wet after use, as to not waste it I LOVE the smell, and it is very nourishing to my skin, does not leave me dried out.

Works for girls, too!
I love the smell of this bar! I use it as a shave cream. It's super easy to lather up on your legs (it's not super bubbly, but it provides a nice layer of protection), and since it's so balancing, it does a great job of preventing razor burn without leaving sudsy foam in the shower or sink. It also helped a lot in the transition from dry winter to humid spring by balancing out my skin!
