In the past, the excessive heat caused my skin to react and I had to use a steroid cream to ease the pain. However, I started using the No. 3 Zen Bar as well as changed my eating habits, and I no longer need the steroid cream. Also, the body exfoliator provides "A Whole New World" bathing experience. My skin feels soft and fresh from my No. 3 Zen Bar. The owner, Tamara, provides extraordinary customer service! Trust me, you will not be disappointed in the products.
