C. O. Bigelow Mentha Exfoliating Bar Soap 2-Pack, 7 oz Peppermint & Walnut for Smoothing Rough Skin

C.O. Bigelow Mentha Exfoliating Bar Soap is a peppermint-infused exfoliating body bar that gently buffs away dead skin with crushed walnut powder while leaving a cooling, refreshing sensation.

This aromatic bar combines peppermint oil and finely crushed walnut shells to provide a brisk, invigorating cleanse that helps smooth rough patches on elbows, knees, feet and body. Crafted by C.O. Bigelow in the USA, each 7 oz bar is designed to rinse clean and fit standard soap dishes, offering a straightforward upgrade to your daily shower or shave routine without harsh residues.

How does this soap exfoliate without being abrasive?

The formula uses crushed walnut powder as the mechanical exfoliant, sized to remove dead surface cells while rinsing away clean. Combined with a creamy soap base, it gives a scrubbing action that is effective on rough spots yet gentle enough for regular use on thick-skinned areas.

• Crushed walnut powder provides controlled, natural abrasion.
• Pleasantly foaming soap base helps suspend and wash away debris.
• Rinse-clean formulation prevents gritty residue.

Will the peppermint oil be too strong for sensitive skin?

Peppermint oil delivers a cooling, tingling sensation that many users find invigorating; its intensity depends on individual sensitivity. If you have very sensitive skin, test the bar on a small area first, or use it primarily on less delicate regions like feet, hands and elbows.

• Peppermint oil gives a cooling, revitalizing effect.
• Best suited for tolerant or less sensitive skin zones.
• Patch testing recommended for highly reactive skin types.

How do I use this bar to improve shave results?

Exfoliating before shaving removes dead skin and lifts hairs, helping blades glide more smoothly and reducing the chance of ingrown hairs. Lather the Mentha Exfoliating Bar over wet skin to exfoliate, rinse, then follow with your preferred shaving product for a cleaner shave finish.

• Exfoliate briefly over the shaving area before applying shave cream.
• Rinses clean to avoid clogging razors or leaving residue.
• Can reduce roughness that contributes to razor drag and bumps.

What practical details should I know about size, packaging, and ethical claims?

Each pack contains two individually wrapped 7 oz bars, each measuring approximately 4 x 2.5 x 2.12 inches to fit standard soap dishes. The bars are made in the USA and are labeled cruelty free (not tested on animals), making them suitable as a personal treat or gift.

• Includes two 7 oz bars, individually wrapped for freshness.
• Dimensions compatible with most bathroom soap dishes.
• Made in USA and marketed as cruelty free.

Who is this for? The C.O. Bigelow Mentha Exfoliating Bar Soap is ideal for anyone who wants an energizing shower experience plus targeted exfoliation for rough areas—people who like minty aromas, prefer natural-texture scrubs like walnut powder, or want a simple pre-shave exfoliant. It’s particularly useful for those seeking a non-liquid, travel-friendly option that rinses clean and doubles as a revitalizing body scrub. If you have extremely sensitive or compromised skin, consider a patch test or consult a skincare professional before regular use.
