I saw a young Lady presenting this at Costco the other day. It is suppose to be soap free and keep your skin at a 5.5 ph balance. I would like to know if anyone likes and or has tried this line? I also saw it is sold at CVS,Walmart and Rite Aid. I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks Katey.

I never heard of it -- but I'm going to look it up right now. I'm becoming more aware about the importance of pH these days. So thanks! I'm hoping someone else comes along who has used it.

It's a very nice basic line. Not much to break you out or cause problems. Prices are great at Costco.com or if they are doing a road show in store.

This is a German manufactured line that is well thought of. Costco has good prices so go for it.

Katey, I don't know about this product but just wanted to mention that there are tons of good soap-free cleansers in that pH range. Usually the soap cleanser have a very high pH. Here is one list that I can't verify but does come from a good source, although not necessarily current. But it gives you some idea of what's out there:

SQ3: Thanks for the reminder! Great price on this at Costco, though (as well as some of the others mentioned, I think).

Thanks for that list suzy! My Moisture Boost cleanser from PC tested 5 but I can only do whole numbers on the strips I got. It's good to know that she does that for all her cleansers. All of the PC products I tested were at the right ph.

My hubby was really having an issue with itchy skin and little bumps coming out on his back, We tried so many things that didn't help.I bought the body wash and lotion for him and he doesn't have the problem now at all.

Very good product. I picked up the body wash for me yesterday at Costco.
