Liquid or bar soap? Which do you prefer?


I like bar soap better. I think it cleans better. I like the ones with a gritty sand paper texture. My hands feels cleaner there.

STRAIGHT LYE.

That's a straight up lie!!!

reply

Nice!

reply

Bar soap, always.

reply

I concur.

reply

Same here. Besides, it lasts longer. I remember commercials from back when liquid soap was first introduced. They claimed that one bottle of liquid lasts as long as four, five, six or whatever bars of soap. Baloney!!

reply

That's right. A decent sized hard bar of soap can last for a couple of months.

My liquid hand soap has lasted since last September and is still going. It's the foamy kind.

reply

Yes, I think foamy lasts longer, though I never thought about whether it was as effective as bar or regular liquid soap. You'd think so, but who knows??

reply

I've discovered that if you dilute the liquid in the bottle, it lasts a very long time. It's the same as liquid soap, just diluted.

I like the foam-making bottles. Got some Dawn, thought I'd refill it with regular Dawn but it's much too thick. So I diluted it to where it's runny and now I've got foamy Dawn that'll last forever!

It's the surfactants in the soap that do the job.

reply

I don’t like to dilute the liquid soap. It always shoots out super far when I hit the pump

reply

Not when you've got one of those foamy soap dispensers.

reply

I agree, not just for the hands,
but shower as well. I dislike using body wash,
no matter how good it smells.

reply

I've converted to liquid hand and body soap, but honestly I don't have a preference. They both have advantages and disadvantages.

reply

Liquid. Easier to use. Washes off quicker.

reply

"Easier"? LOL.

reply

I don't understand why that's funny. You don't really have to lather up much or anything like you do with bar soap.

reply


Liquid for hands, bar for shower. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

I like liquid soap when I have rings on. Bar soap gets stuck in the settings and is really hard to rinse off.

reply

Bar soap.
At least for me, Body wash makes me feel greasy afterwards.
