That's under $2 a bar at most places, lathers INSANELY and it's vegan (made of coconut oil) and smells amazing. By lathers insanely I mean I can swirl it around in my hands 3x and I have enough soap to cover my entire torso - now that's economical. Plus the people making it in bulk can potentially cause less waste than us - they don't have to recycle smaller containers and ship small amounts of ingredients to us in the first place. (all of which is inefficient and costly/wasteful)
It doesn't leave you with that nasty "moisturizer oily" feeling either.
Local health food stores sell it and a friend who visits India often uses it and it's popular there, Indian people are serious about being vegetarian and not having beef tallow etc.
I just mean by this that there is an option in between the $10 farmers market/Lush soaps for vegans.
But homemade soap is awesome too :)

This soap is as good as any high end product on the market. I thought Lush cosmetics soaps were good, but then I remembered how nice and cheap Chandrika is, and has that super heady spicy aroma.
I use [Chandrika] (https://www.amazon.com/Chandrika-Ayurvedic-Soap-2-6-oz/dp/B00016X212) Ayurvedic soap and find it works really well.
I use honey and tea tree oil to treat my acne. I had pretty decent skin as a young teen, but experience breakouts during stressful and hormonal periods in my life. These two methods work great!
Another thing I've found is that while my skin seems oily, the over-production of oil is actually a response to me drying my skin out with oil-removing products. So moisturizing really helps my skin stay healthy and breakout free! I use witch hazel as a toner/moisturizer, sometimes coconut oil when it's so dry that there's visible flakes. My boyfriend, on the other hand, has genuinely oily skin and this soap is spectacular for him. I use it as well, in the summer, and only on my T-zone.
Oh yeah, and GENTLE exfoliation is your friend. Here is a guide to chemical exfoliants. I'm too lazy to figure out which ones are safe for pregnancy... I use an exfoliating brush like this one
