This bar-in-a-jar comes with a nifty sponge you use to create deep cleaning, brightening foam. And the USRx Even Tone Cleansing Bar, $33, contains kojic and azelaic acids to fight inflammation and even out skin tone.

With the help of salicylic acid and eucalyptus oil, the PCA Blemish Control Bar, $38, fights breakouts and soothes the skin. It comes with a sponge you use to create lather, which you can leave on for two minutes as a zit zapping treatment.

The Erno Laszlo White Marble Treatment Bar, $45, contains a blend of exfoliating fruit acids to seriously lighten hyperpigmentation. It also has willow bark extract to speed up the skin's natural exfoliation, making it glow.

The Dove Beauty Bar was the original facial cleansing bar, and the latest version -- the Dove Dry Oil Beauty Bar, $5 -- might be even better. It's wildly moisturizing thanks to argan oil, and it smells like a summer vacation.

If you're a natural beauty aficionado, Root Science checks a lot of boxes: The products are natural, largely organic, vegan and cruelty free. The Root Science Cleanse Facial Cleanser, $20, is a simple yet truly fantastic bar cleanser that's made with organic coconut, olive and palm oils, and it leaves skin feeling so soft you may not even need to follow it with a moisturizer.
