There's liquid soap, you know. Didn't need to shove anything inside anywhere to stay clean.

Liquid soap/body wash is a sham. It's just the company selling you less soap by diluting it with water. Bars of soap are more economical.

I'm old enough to remember when body wash was not the normal and now soap bars seem to be used less than body wash.

Liquid soap is a bitch to rinse properly.

I've never once found that to be the case, and I love those super lathery ones too

It rinses just as any other state form soap, what are you talking about

Astroglide is not a brand of liquid soap

This is a common problem... You need to buy "body wash" from the supermarket or pharmacy. Not the "wash" from the body shop.

I actually wasn't aware of soap bars before today. I only see those for hands, not the whole body. Reading these comments, I'm not sure if it's more of a generational or cultural difference.
