I'm talking about hand soap, and it doesn't have anything to do with the price of the soap. Why is it that when you wash your hands you have to wash them more then once to get them "clean"? say for example:then other night I was cooking with garlic, my hands smelled of it so I washed them, they still smelled of garlic so I had to wash them a couple more times. I know this because I like to smell my hands after I wash them because I love the smell of scented soap (I know weird) haha but they still smelled of garlic blah :(

I think it has nothing to do with the
strength of the soap, nut with the
strength of the smell of the garlic on
your hands. The smell of the garlic
stays for several hours despite several
times of washing hands. It's a good
idea that you squeeze a bit of lemon juice
on your hands after washing them, to get
rid of the garlic smell. Use the lemon juice
like after-wash lotion.
