Do you use bar soap or body wash?

Usually I use bar soap in the shower, but I do have a couple of body washes in there as well, if I am doing or going some place special I will use one of the body washes because they smell really good, otherwise I just use the soap. Which do you prefer?

I start with soap to get me clean and then I use body wash to lock in the moisture and make me smell good.

Sounds like a good plan.

I prefer body wash, I love it and I love the fragrance and the lather. If I cannot afford body wash which often happens because I live on a fixed income then it is back to soap for me.

I use either or, depends on what I have. I have some awesome green tea soap that I was getting in my Jerky Direct autoship. My brothers family gave me body wash for Christmas. Once the bar soap was gone I am now using the body wash until it's gone. Marsha

I always use body wash. I have this crazy idea that using bar soap doesn't get yu clean enough. I don't know maybe in the back of my mind I think that the germs and dirt are still on it after rinsing it off. I know it's dumb but there's that little tiny voice that stops me from using it. I use a loofah daily and that's the same thing as using bar soap, right? I'm just crazy, I guess.

i don't like using bars of soap to wash my body in the shower i find it dries out my skin too much so i use body wash on my loofa. its softer and moisturizes my skin better

I use body wash because I have dry skin and soap just makes it worse. I never use a bar of soap (unless I am somewhere they only have bars) always liquid soap.

I am a soap man. I use Irish Spring for manly men. Just kidding. But I actually do use bar soap. Liquid soap or body wash seems like more of a feminine thing to me. I guess I would use it if that was all there was but as long as there is bar soap I will continue to use that.

I use bar soap. I never really got into using body wash. For some reason, I never feel as clean as I do with bar soap. I have used body washes in the past, especially when I receive them as gifts. But, most of the time, I just use regular soap.

I prefer body wash because its in a bottle. Bar soap just sits around collecting germs. I also break out if i use bar soap. I don't know why though.
