I've been using Redken Brews Mens Cleaning Bars since 1970, when they were know simply as Redken Mens Bars. They are still the same great alternative to conventional soaps for people with sensitive skin like mine. My issues are with the limited quantities one can get in an order even on LovelySkin.com it is a max of 6. I can understand not wanting someone reselling it but there are those of us who need it daily all year long and does not last anywhere as long as conventional soaps. In all the years I've used it the product has not really gone though any significant change in its composition and Redken has reduced the packaging waste to make it eco-friendly and cheaper to produce. Yet the cost keeps skyrocketing - from a fixed price of about $5 per bar in the 1990s to about $10 in 2010 (and only available through licensed beautician), to about $12 per bar in 2018 (when Redken finally allowed some retail an online sites to sell it to the public) at current (2022-2022) pricing that generally runs $18 to $35 a bar. While it is nice to find a site like LovelySkin.com offering them at a more reasonable price $10 - 11 each, it is evident that Redken has lost control of the end pricing of its product and the issue of resellers changing the entire pricing model. Other products are still traded both brick-and-mortar and online as single prices so this is could be fixed.
