This has been my go-to soap, whenever I tried to use other soap I always keep coming back to Olivella. Olivella is a well made basic soap, one of the nicest among those commonly available at drugstores and supermarkets. Its simplicity is reminiscent of other olive oil soaps like savon de marseille. Olivella softens into a creamy jelly, a soft and non-stripping low lather, which worried me initially, thinking that it'd melt away within a few weeks, but it lasts a fairly long time. I used this soap from head to toe, yes you read it right, I used it in my hair, in my face and in my body and with that Olivella soap makes it economical. I have very oily skin and I have no problem using this soap. Its a low lathering soap so you might need a sponge/puff to create good lather. The smell is odd at first, faintly vegetal clay, like the earth itself but after a while I came to enjoy it, almost like an anti-perfume, fresher and cleaner than the powdery musks and synthetic florals of 'soapy' perfumes. And lastly, it will keep your wrinkles at bay, yes its true because it has anti-aging ingredients that helps skin moisturized after used. I highly recommend this soap especially during the winter months.
