Neutrogena Amber Bar Sculpture

The Neutrogena Facial Cleansing Bar, sometimes referred to simply as the "Amber Bar", has been around since 1954.

At a time when opaque animal-derived alkaline soaps were the only way to cleanse, Neutrogena's Amber Bar must have caused a sensation.

The understated product, visually no more than a more-or-less clear amber block and devoid of the manipulative marketing of the day, was made with gentler cleansers which produced less foam and were easier to rinse off, hydrating glycerin and a pH which didn't break down nearly as much of the skin's essential healthy barrier function.

When wet, the bar becomes more transparent.

Neutrogena's Amber Bar set the company's founder (Manny Stolaroff) a template for further skin care innovations.

Artist Danielle Julian-Norton has been inspired to create the sculpture Ambrosia comprising approximately 20,000 Neutrogena Amber Bars.

Forming 7-feet high walls and running 40 feet long, Ambrosia is installed at The Reeves Contemporary Art Gallery in New York City.

In Greek and Roman mythology, ambrosia refers to anything so pleasing in scent that it should appeal to The Gods. Danielle Julian-Norton writes:

"It is the clean identity, amber color, fresh scent, bodily reference, striking surface and translucent aesthetic that inspired me."

The scent of the installation can be detected from as far away as the street:

"It's kind of fun hearing people smell the piece before they even walk into the gallery, so they're trying to pinpoint the smell "what is it, what is it? Oh yeah I knew it was Neutrogena soap."

From helping establish Neutrogena in its role as a pioneer in bonafide skincare, to creating a cult following, to works of art, the "Amber Bar," has certainly come a long way.
