Provon Antimicrobial Lotion Soap - 16 oz Pump

It’s cheaper and same quality. Better to purchase through here.

Perfect for medical uses.

I scrub my hands after work daily and this soap makes my hands feel cleaner before I have time for my next shower.

I ordered this soap a week ago in a desperate attempt to rid myself of the dreaded "nose bump" on my left nostril piercing. The piercing shop I went to is the best around, extremely reputable and this is 100% somehow caused by me or my dumb inability to heal at the rate of perfection. I was advised by my piercer to spray this saline solution onto the piercings (I got both nostrils pierced on the same day) once in the morning and once at night. I can't say why but my right piercing healed well. I had a bump for a couple weeks but it never got quite as inflamed as the left side.I am kicking myself hard for avoiding taking pics on that side/not taking a before pic because I AM BLOWN AWAY at the results I have witnessed. Even over night, there were results!!!! I got home late (6/12/21) and ripped my beautiful brown box open to soothe the tender bump. It was, indeed, soothing. There is a medicinal feeling to this soap. You can tell the antiseptic qualities are getting in there. This is my method... I dampen a q tip and use it to dampen the piercing. I dampen it again then use a drop of the soap on the cotton. I form a lather against clean skin, then use the lather to go around a few times, lifting the post gently so the soap can really get in there. I let it sit a moment and then use the other end of the q tip to rinse it off. I Just started doing the inside of my nose the other day, for good measure.I couldn't be happier. I really couldn't ask the soap to work faster, as my body is the one who's slacking here. I tell myself DON'T OVER DO IT because i just want to wash the thing with the soap. It feels good and every time I do it gets a little better. IDGAF if they gave me 1/3 of a bottle for $20, this stuff is worth its weight in gold for a person suffering from self inflicted facial deformity (or any painful or unattractive piercing mishap). No joke, at 1 am tomorrow it will be a week and the thing is almost gone. I've had it for at least 2 months, trying to be patient using saline, time, and the occasional sea salt "mask". I'm looking forward to seeing how a fresh tattoo heals using this soap.

My teenage daughter raises rabbits for show and sale. She uses this soap anytime she gets scratched by the rabbits and so far it has helped with preventing any kind of infections from the constant scratches.

I recently got a couple of tattoos and, from experience, I know how important it is to keep new ink well cleansed and free of bacteria. I do have regular antibacterial soap at home but it has a lot of fragrance in it and not much antibacterial properties. I once used a soap called Hibiclens Antiseptic/Antimicrobial Skin Liquid Soap when I had MRSA on my cheek which is a very serious bacterial infection that doesn't respond well to antibiotics. It was amazing. I thought I would buy some for my tattoos but my tattoo artist suggested I didn't get it because it is red in color and has a high amount of fragrance. He suggested Provon so I got that. Hibiclens has a whopping 4% of the chemical that zaps bacteria and other germs. This soap only has .3% (not 3% but 3/10th of a percent) of the same ingredient so, if you want a really heavy duty antibacterial soap, go with Hibiclens.For my tattoo needs though, this works great. It is light yellow and has a slight medicinal scent. It is very concentrated and just a little is plenty to wash a tattoo or your hands. It rinses off well and isn't drying. I have been using this soap on my new tattoos and they have healed fine. No peeling, no scabs, no infections! I have a couple of touch ups scheduled and a big cover up so I will be using Provon for that work too. I feel it is better than run of the mill hand soap that calls itself antibacterial. Some studies have shown that they are not even effective at all at killing germs!The bottle of 16 ounces is a little pricey so I wouldn't use this soap on daily hand washing basis but I do use it daily on the tattoos and when I am doing a job with my hands that gets them germy or grimy. I really don't think most people need more antibacterial ingredients for things like piercings, tattoos, and everyday hand washing. I do think, if you have a really nasty bacterial issue that needs to be dealt with, Hibiclens is much more effective. It saved me from hospitalization and losing a chunk of my cheek where the super infection had embedded itself. Too bad it is so red that it could stain tattoos or I would use it on them as well just to be very cautious.Still, I am happy with this soap and will purchase it again for tattoos and other things when I want to be sure I zap mild bacteria and germs and get the area super clean.

It is a great hand wash to kill germs. And it is easy on your hands with the added lotion.

I've had this for a month or so, and just started using it this past weekend on a couple of troublesome piercings. It is working great so far!. Packaging was also excellent--there were no spills.Edited---February 7, 2019I had to come back and edit my review because after a little under two weeks of daily use, the "piercing gun bump" that I've had on my helix for over TWO YEARS is gone! I got my helix pierced in September 2016 and immediately got the protrusion on the back of my helix. I've tried everything, and struggled with it for the last 2+ years AND it was still flaring up intermittently. I had ordered this in November, but hadn't started using it. I was having a major flare-up and started searching for helix flare ups on YT, when I found a video where the young lady had gotten her helix pierced with a piercing gun and had trouble healing it. She stated that she had used this soap and a popular saline spray that healed her piercing. I came back to Amazon and read EVERY review on the soap. I decided to try it since I already had the soap sitting in a cabinet. My piercing just got better and better with every day of use. I love this soap and will always use it to clean my piercings.
