soap versus body wash
« on: March 07, 2012, 05:04:42 pm »
Who washes up with soap and who uses body wash? Well I prefer body wash over bar soap I feel cleaner when I use body wash St.Ives is good to use oatmeal and shea butter very good for your skin.

I prefer body wash to soap....lately I have a real "thing" against the slimy, soapy residue in the soap dish. So much easier with body wash - any kind as long as it smells good

I use both, but I prefer body wash.  I like lavender because It has a sweet smell.

I only use body wash, and a bath sponge. Victoria Secret and Bath and Body Works has great scents, and also anything with coconut and shea butter. Followed up with body butter and great smooth, soft skin.

I would much rather have bar soap over body wash!

I prefer using body wash, but I like having fancy bar soaps as decoration or occasional use.

As a former home health aide I can tell you that liquids are safer and healthier than bars.  You, and everyone else who shares the bar, leave germs on the bar that can be transmitted to the next user.  Yuch.  :P  On top of that there's that slimy residue to be cleaned up.  Double yuch.  :bs:  I don't even own any bars.

I use Safegaurd bar soap and have my whole life. Its antibacterial so I don't worry about any germs and it makes me feel cleaner than body washes do.

When washing my hands I prefer soap. I guess that goes back to when I was a kid. However, body wash is great when just taking a relaxing bath.

It use body wash.  It seems that old-fashioned soap might have run its course, but I do remember the days of buying nothing but Zest because, yes, it did rinse off cleanly.  And I loved Ivory because it was so gentle (and it floats!).

I don't think bars of soap are really clean.  I like body soap.  It's also good to use as bubble bath...two uses for the price of one  :icon_rr:
