Don't use it daily! It's too drying that way. Weekly is the way to go, twice a week tops.

1) Cleanse your face as usual.
2) Wet the short edge of the bar.
3) Rub wet edge of bar DIRECTLY on your face. (You will have to re-wet the bar often, but try not to wet the ENTIRE bar--it will last longer if you keep it from getting too wet)
4) Let clay dry (it's mask-like)
5) Rinse off, pat your face dry.

I bought mine in a store in Calgary, Alberta.

Yes, you just use a small amount at one time and it's easy to control how much you use if you wet your face and then rub the bar over it. Don't keep the bar in the shower! let it dry and then keep it in the box.

I have combination skin, but I can tell you that those oily areas benefit from this bar (especially when used as a mask). The clay pulls the excess oil from the oily areas (forehead/nose/chin) while not over-drying my dry areas. If you have acne and use prescription topical medication, you may experience irritation and/or excessive dryness. As far as sensitivity, there are no chemicals, fragrance or fillers in the product. It is 100% white clay so you shouldn't have any issues there.

This definately helped with my uneven skin tone-- it has a great calming effect on redness and is healing blemishes unbelievably well, which of course contributes to a more even appearance. I do think it helps with brightness, as well, as it pulls toxins and debris (which cause dullness) out of your skin and absorbs it. Plus it isn't over-drying, which can make skin dull, also. This is an EXCELLENT products for a number of skin concerns...give it a try! Besides, if you're not happy, Sephora's amazing with their return policy :)

i guess that would depend on how much makeup and other porducts you use. the label says to rinse your skin first. when in doubt, i reach for one of my old standbys: cteaphil or noxema

I use it to prevent blackheads from developing into something worse.

I think that depends on your skin and what you are using it for. Since I'm using it to keep persistent acne at bay (and it's really successful at that!), I'm using it every morning and evening. FWIW, things are going great even though my skin tends towards dry.

You can always try it once a day, say, and then go up or down depending on your skin's reaction.

dear friend, i, as well have very large pores, and uneven skin tone, sensitive skin, very oily...uffff, to sum it all up i have the worst skin. i m always looking for something really good to buy. i thought this was pretty expensive, too, bad since sephora is so good with their return policy, i decided to go for it. this soap i believe will last u 2/3 months at least. u just wet ur face, and wet the soap also, rub it against ur face, to make sure u cover the entire face, i go as far as my bottom lashes, and on top of my eyes, carefully so i dont get it inside the eye. u may need to wet the soap several times, and rub more so that u get more of the product. after that, u wait a few minutes, it will dry on ur skin, i keep it much longer though. then just wash it off. i liked this product so much that i bought one the next day for my sister-in-law. the whole process may become a little messy if u r as careless as i m, getting it on the sink, and around the sink, but it cleans very easily. i say do give this a try for couple of days, keep it f u like it, return it f it is not doing u any good! o, one other thing, the soap may break, after a few uses, which i think is not bad, this way, u can store all the pieces in a ziplock bag, and use one piece every time, it will even make it easier to be applied on ur face, around the curves and all. so i hope this was helpful and good luck!,
