When I first used the bar, I struggled a little. But then someone told me a tip which I loved. They told me to get one of those facial cleansing brushes (I think Dermalogica do one, and there is Shisedo have one as well). Well you run the brush under water and then rub it on one side of the bar, and it lathers up beautifully, and then you just use the brush to cleanse your face.

You probably could do the same with the Clarisonic (but I haven’t tried that yet so don’t take it as gospel). I do really like Gentle Clean. It smells wonderful, doesn’t overstrip the skin of oil, but does a thorough clean and my skin feels great after using it.

I do travel often, but so far have been taking the large liquid bottle with me (the liquid bottle which is already “ready to use” is my personal favourite, but I do have the bar as well. I have to try Summerwave’s suggestion about getting another smaller dispenser for travelling though – excellent idea Summerwave!

Or you can cut the bar up. I did that, I think I cut it into about 4 pieces and took a piece with me when I am on the road and my brush. The brush just seems to help you get a lather quickly without wasting much of the product, but thats probably due to me and my clumbsy hands. My sister, is able to use the bar without any wastage whatsoever (and I have watched her do it several times and still can't do it the same), but the brush is the closest and easiest thing i have found so far! Excellent idea though re the travel containers. It will definitely help me carry the sections about when they are still a little wet.

I'm in the UK and luckily we don't have a walmart (saw that program about them) but do have places we can get containers from (Boots & Superdrug both do wonderful small, cheap ones) so thanks for the suggestion. I learn so much from this forum, I dread to think where I would be if it didn't exist!
