I respectfully disagree with body wash being more convenient for travel. A bar of soap in an inexpensive travel soap case definitely takes up much less space than a full size bottle of body wash. . . and you don't have to worry about running out if you use travel size body wash. If you are deploying and need to take a few months' worth of soap a multi-pack of bar soap is more compact than the equivalent in body wash. Second, I've never had a bar of soap accidentally come open and leak. On a final note, if you plan to do some sink laundry (socks and skivvies) the right bar of soap can double for both hygiene and laundry.

Real Men Real Style all the reasonings you said about body wash is why im loving so much with that soap (i also liked how you added the "eww gross" part on the 3rd reasoning lol) Body wash all the way!
@RealMenREalStyle, as a fellow service member in the navy, you probably heard of the uniform change that all naval personnel excluding marine corps, are moving to type III NWU woodland camo. Now the boots are 1000 times more comfortable than the black leather mainly cause I can do all day in them, however I've been struggling to find a good set of boot socks, I've always defaulted to the Dickies black Dri-Tech Crew socks, mainly cause it's what my feet like and are used to and don't flare up like they did in boot with the government issued ones did, and could take a beating on duty and in the wash. However I'm missing just a little bit of support in my feet, any recommendations at all? P.S thanks for the awesome discounts and style tips, bought a couple of products that sponsored your videos i.e Vincero, KK&J ect.
omega17ds I also use both, I have body wash for, well, my body, and I use a bar of soap to clean my face because I get a ton of oil on my face and it's awesome to just make it disappear.
I always found bar soap lathers up much better than body wash. It also seems to leave a cleaner feeling. Some of those body washes feel like a film of soap is still on you after washing it off.
Regarding that "film" same with liquid laundry detergent. I went back to washing my clothes with powder soap, and my clothes come out feeling light and without having that "greasy film" on them.
I see people always complaining about paid sponsors. Given that I'm a Buisness student, I can respect your grind, whether it's you, Alpha or Jose. Great video!
I always use bar soap. Reason: I sweat a lot and in the tropics, my pores are always with dirt. So I have to use a loofah to scrub my body and it is best with a bar soap. I use body wash when I am not at home or in a cold area, where I do not sweat a lot. But they are both good. Important is to be clean and smell good all the time :)
I've tried both, and Body washes just gave me horribly itchy skin from all the beads and whatnot they shoved in, I just use Dove Men bar soap, lasts a long time, does the job, and when i'm getting a new bar, I just slap whatever's left on top of the new one in a hack to get save soap
I use bar soap on days where I have sweated a lot. It overall does a better job of removing oil and dirt. Body wash for days where I want more of a fragrance and I'm not as dirty. Great video Antonio
I started with body wash because it's been growing so rapidly in popularity, it seemed logical that people prefer it if so many are switching. But it was always kind of awkward and slow to use, and I never felt a huge difference if I decided to skip it aside from some key areas. Then I forgot to pack it on a trip once and had to use the hotel bar soap, which was this local deal with charcoal in it. That was the most refreshing shower of my life and I'd never felt so clean. That was partly due to that soap being unusually awesome, but it totally sold me on the bar for its speed and ease of use.
I've used both multiple times on different occasions and I personally feel the bar of soap leaves my body overall cleaner. With the body washes I've used they always seemed to leave a sort of film on my skin that was a definite no go.
I use both based on my mood. Despite its dehydration effects on the skin, I still tend to reach for my trusty cheap bar to lather my body. Tip for all: avoid using a bar of soap on your hair as it strips too much of the essential oils. I've been scolded by my hairdressers everytime I go 😅
I'm a bar of soap guy. I like the simplicity. I don't even have to use a sponge or anything. But I use a soap that's actually great at moisturizing, so that removes the negative part he mentioned. This is the main feature they advertise about it (1/4 of it is moisturizing cream). It's Dove Men + Care
I personally like Duke Cannon bar soap. I switched from body wash to this bar soap almost 3 years ago. I feel cleaner, look cleaner, and it works well with my sensitive skin, without irritating it.
I used to be all body wash until I tried Shea Moisture bar soap. It's an African mix that has a subtle but great scent, it also moisturizers your skin so I don't have to put on lotion if I don't want to. Great product 10/10
I use Ivory bar soap for washing everything, including my hair and beard. Contrary to what many will tell you, I find that it is much more gentle than any of the body washes I have used. It leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated without the additional use of lotions. However, I do still use shea butter to moisturize my beard. I like the way it makes my beard feel, and it's cheaper than the commercial beard oils which are available. But, I am not certain that it is still necessary. For many years, I had very frustrating difficulties with seborrheic dermatitis, and the flaking that goes with it. When I grew a full beard, I had to find a solution to it. After much trial and error, I now use Ivory soap, and I occasionally treat those areas with vinegar. I no longer have those issues with dryness, flaking, or dermatitis, at all. Best of all, Ivory soap and vinegar are both dirt cheap and last forever! I hope this will help someone else.
I heard that bar soap retains bacteria. In any event I prefer the body wash products. I wet up, soap up, rinse and repeat. I also look for mildly fragranced washes with the exception of those that match the cologne I might be wearing for special occasions. But as you say, I avoid over doing it even then. I think if you can get a strong smell of the cologne you are using you need to find one that is more compatible with your personal pheromones. Let your body heat do the rest for you.
I've always debated this myself. Even googled it and read a few articles. Glad to finally see someone talk about it and even better that there's a video now. Thanks.
Bar soap for me. Whenever I use body wash I never feel quite as clean. I guess it's the "moisturizer" in the bodywash. I'd rather just get clean and use lotion to moisturize my skin.
In case you weren't forced to watch two ads prior to getting to the video, theres a nice minute and a half ad about 30 seconds into the video. Oh, goodie.
Am I the only one who uses a bar of soap by lathering it on my hands and then applying it to my body (as opposed to applying the bar directly to the skin?). Anyways, I'm mostly a body-wash man for the scent.
While body wash could be gentler on the skin, it also contains highly allergic components like Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and other trashy components. So I prefer Bar Soap+Moisturizer.
Antonio - I'm compelled to comment and appreciate your videos - I think you do a great job and I learn something new each time I see one. You have great delivery, never superfluous, very accessible and down to earth despite being fashion related and honest (though you advertise, you do so honestly .. and even voted for the humble bar soap;)) - Thanks and all the best
Body Wash. I find they last longer, and I use a shampoo/conditioner/ body wash most of the time. But I will grab a bar if it is on sale or something seasonally scented.
I go back and forth. One time I use Bar soap in the summer cuz it's hot and I get sweaty. Another time in the winter I will use liquid soap because my skin can get very dry.
*Liquid Soaps = Healthier - Want LESS TIRED or LESS SLEEPY after Shower? Get rid of all your Bar Soap and use Liquid Soap and you will thank me later! Oh, BONUS... NO CLEAN Shower or Tub too!*
Reason I switched from bars to washes is cause of the moisturing properties of body washes. I have dry skin and they do really help keep my skin hydrated better. Not completely but better. Plus like someone else mentioned I really got tired of the bar dropping in the shower. Was annoying!
I've used body wash for as long as I can remember but switched to soap bars about a year ago and am hooked, so many great fragrances for men!!! On a positive but also negative side they last for ages compared to body wash and just can't wait to try new one!! The downside....... Dropping a new bar on your toes........ It's a Bastard!!
A good bar soap is no different in price from a body wash and doesn't last as long, that's assuming you use like others said (Ivory, Dove, Etc.) If you use Natural stuff ( not tested on animals, detergent free, etc. ) they will be similar in price and the body wash will leave your skin better and last over a month.
@@chadworley8389 The soap is actually made with cheap ingredients. You can tell when you actually have it in hand. It isn't milled soap, so it melts down VERY quickly. You'll get a maximum of 4 showers out of a single $7 bar. That's TERRIBLE value. The lather is nowhere near being a thick as they advertise (Harry's soap is the champ in this department) and it tends to leave a film on you. You'll actually have to "push" the lather off of your body in order to keep the residue from lingering. Also, some of the fragrances aren't that strong outside of the shower. They only stick with you for a few minutes after toweling off. The "fragrance" of the Cedar Citrus in particular (which is actually the best smelling one) vanishes almost instantly. Probably because there is no real fragrance in it, basically it's an unscented soap with essential orange oil added to it. The rest of them don't smell that great, in fact, some of them smell quite peculiar. Pine Tar, specifically. It smells literally like a chemical floor cleaner, and kind of like a urinal cake. Do you want to rub that on your body? The Gold Moss smells like a Grandmother's bathroom. And some of the other scents (Area 51 in particular) smell floral and girly, which is odd considering that this product is being aimed at "manly" men. If you want to try real men's soap that has thick lather, cleans deep, rinses clean, smells great and lasts a long time, I recommend trying Harry's bar soaps (especially the Shiso!), Art of Sport soaps, or Caswell-Massey's luxury bar soaps (Newport, Jockey Club, and No. 6 are recommended). But, don't buy Harry's from Amazon, only buy it at Target where it's $3.99. Amazon is OK for the other two brands.
@@kropking Damn man, I was looking forward to that soap, Lol. Thanks for the advice, really appreciate it. I currently use Every Man Jack & CREMO body washes. Not sure if you tried those brands, but both have body washes & bar soaps and have amazing masculine scents, especially CREMO
I prefer organically made soap bars. It seems to last a lot longer for me (if I store it correctly) When I read the ingredients on body wash it turns me away. If i cant pronounce it I don't want it on my skin.
I normally use body wash on my face, and continue with the bar soap for the rest of my body. Interestingly, I do this pretty much for the exact reasons pointed out in the video. Body wash is more gentle and moisturizing on my face, while the bar of soap gets the job done quickly and efficiently. By using a combination of the two, I find it is also very economical because your not going through body wash like crazy.
I truly enjoy your videos. they inform me and my dad lol . we like to always present ourselves with highest degree and we could not have done it without you. hands down favorite channel
Bar soap all the way. I always buy the best classic brand (a solid old fashioned brand, preferably one that has been going for at least a hundred years or more) I can afford, like Penhaligons, Floris or Truefitt & Hill and I wash hair, face and body with it. I was taught how to do this by the matron of my prep school and have been doing it for 58 years. Never had a problem.
I use Dove Men+Care 1/4 moisturizer bar soap. Works wonders for me. Doesn't last as long as traditional bar soaps but feels great on the skin and exfoliates as well!
Recently started using body washes and have tried a bunch of brands and not very satisfied. I am used to the rich lather of a bar and no body wash brand has even come close to the lather. It just makes the skin slimy so the hand glides more easily to help clean but little to no lather. BTW to those who say they have dry skin, you guys should try something called Castile soap or Bastile soap, it may not smell the best but I'd say it's equally moisturising as body wash and has the added benefit of being environment friendly(that soap itself bio degradable). It's basically a soap made with pure olive oil. If you find some place that sells handmade soap it's more likely that it has no added chemicals or preservatives so you can be sure whatever you are using is 100% soap and only soap and not some weird chemicals that we can't eat. If you can't eat it don't put it on your body.
I agree and disagree. Bar soap feels better, more authentic, especially when it’s natural. But I like the smell of body wash and how much easier it is. But bar soap is just better to me
Bar of soap. It is so much easier and efficient and I can use up every bit of it. A tip, you can get a scented bar of soap like irish spring or whatever you prefer, drop it in your sock draw and it scents everything up.
After having been a body wash man for most of my life, I switched to bar since I can find natural bars more readily. To help keep it for months and months, I cut maybe a quarter off and keep the rest in the original cardboard box. After using that piece, I keep it in a small plastic bottle to keep it out of my sons' hands.
I have been using Dettol bodywash for 2 months. I always notice that even after rinsing myself, there's always traces of white foam on my body. I am always a thorough washer and I always use my hands to wipe my body thoroughly when I shower. But this Dettol bodywash keeps leaving traces. Not only that, after I shower my skin still has this slippery feeling and feels itchy
Usually body wash but will try bar of soap. Im partial to imperial leather body wash but their soaps are where they got their fame so will try one. Imperial leather foam burst is a lot of fun as well, pretty much expanding foam for your body
Antonio, if you're reading these comments here is my concern. I have stuck with bar soap solely for this reason: Fragrance. I like the way my cologne smells. I get compliments on it. It is a good fit for my body chemistry. My worry with shower gels is the fragrance will at a minimum take the focus off my cologne and at a maximum, overpower it. Your thoughts.
Fantastic video! I like using body washes. Lately, I've been using a body wash from Irish Spring. It's fantastic ... and it makes me feel great every time I use it. You should try it sometime.
You must be buying some cheap crap soap then because Bar Soap & Body washes are about the same, sometimes the wash is cheaper if you buy a pack of 3 or 4 and last longer than the soap.
Hahaha...I know u say bar soap...I also a bar soap guy..Because bar soap can deep clean our body & if I use bar soap I can easily scrub my body much more than body wash...Awesome review
Antonio that shirt looks a little tight on your collar area. Maybe you should unbutton one more button. Idk maybe it's the style too, it just seems like it to me.
I've always tried to use body wash especially since I've always had eczema and other skin problems. Bars like you said tend to dry my skin out way too fast, I might try a few brands just because, but even then I know I'm safer using body washes.
if I lived on my own then maybe I would go with the bar soap but I live with my family and the thought of someone cleaning their ass with bar soap just puts me off. so the clear winner is the body wash for me at this time of my live. Great video as always Antonio =)
*Liquid Soaps = Healthier - Want LESS TIRED or LESS SLEEPY after Shower? Get rid of all your Bar Soap and use Liquid Soap and you will thank me later! Oh, BONUS... NO CLEAN Shower or Tub too!*
I just go out and buy a bar of zote then drill a hole through the center and loop a piece of rope thought it. works great and had never given me problems
Thank you gentlemen for your tips. I have tried loofah but it's just too much hassle to first foam up the loofah and then use it. Also, the foam doesn't stay for long.
Bodywash and a loofah usually, I'm a sweaty guy and usually have to wash up twice because once doesn't make me feel clean and body acne. So I noticed my body acne isn't as bad because I can exfoliate too. I use bar soap and rags too either way...I get clean
I respectfully disagree with body wash being more convenient for travel. A bar of soap in an inexpensive travel soap case definitely takes up much less space than a full size bottle of body wash. . . and you don't have to worry about running out if you use travel size body wash. If you are deploying and need to take a few months' worth of soap a multi-pack of bar soap is more compact than the equivalent in body wash. Second, I've never had a bar of soap accidentally come open and leak. On a final note, if you plan to do some sink laundry (socks and skivvies) the right bar of soap can double for both hygiene and laundry.
Pointa taken!
not to mention TSA freakouts over liquids.
I must agree good sir
Zip lock bag and your ready to go
You'll also need q loofah case/container for travelling If you use body wash

💯
@@Cbsaiyan I prefer having dry skin after using a bar of soap too.
If you use bar soap with a lufa, it exfoliates and the bar of soap lasts longer.
I can't use bar soap as it always feels like its drying my skin out.

I completely agree here
You're supposed to apply some kind of body lotion afterwards
you should try dove or oil of olay soaps. they don't dry your skin out like irish spring or other really harsh soaps.

A good bar soap is no different in price from a body wash and doesn't last as long, that's assuming you use like others said (Ivory, Dove, Etc.)
If you use Natural stuff ( not tested on animals, detergent free, etc. ) they will be similar in price and the body wash will leave your skin better and last over a month.
@@PromotingTheBeat mine lasts about 2-4 weeks. Its Harry's stone bar.
Vertigo 101 lmmmmaao
I usually use a bar soap first then I rinse off and use body wash. Don't know if that's bad or not but I feel like I'm super clean afterwards.
I just ordered Dr squatch. I hope it's good
Ivan c it is
It's terrible, but you probably know that by now.
Most Hated How so? I’ve thought about ordering it but am on the fence.

The soap is actually made with cheap ingredients. You can tell when you actually have it in hand. It isn't milled soap, so it melts down VERY quickly. You'll get a maximum of 4 showers out of a single $7 bar. That's TERRIBLE value.
The lather is nowhere near being a thick as they advertise (Harry's soap is the champ in this department) and it tends to leave a film on you. You'll actually have to "push" the lather off of your body in order to keep the residue from lingering.
Also, some of the fragrances aren't that strong outside of the shower. They only stick with you for a few minutes after toweling off. The "fragrance" of the Cedar Citrus in particular (which is actually the best smelling one) vanishes almost instantly. Probably because there is no real fragrance in it, basically it's an unscented soap with essential orange oil added to it. The rest of them don't smell that great, in fact, some of them smell quite peculiar. Pine Tar, specifically. It smells literally like a chemical floor cleaner, and kind of like a urinal cake. Do you want to rub that on your body?
The Gold Moss smells like a Grandmother's bathroom. And some of the other scents (Area 51 in particular) smell floral and girly, which is odd considering that this product is being aimed at "manly" men.
If you want to try real men's soap that has thick lather, cleans deep, rinses clean, smells great and lasts a long time, I recommend trying Harry's bar soaps (especially the Shiso!), Art of Sport soaps, or Caswell-Massey's luxury bar soaps (Newport, Jockey Club, and No. 6 are recommended). But, don't buy Harry's from Amazon, only buy it at Target where it's $3.99. Amazon is OK for the other two brands.
@@kropking Damn man, I was looking forward to that soap, Lol. Thanks for the advice, really appreciate it. I currently use Every Man Jack & CREMO body washes. Not sure if you tried those brands, but both have body washes & bar soaps and have amazing masculine scents, especially CREMO
I prefer organically made soap bars. It seems to last a lot longer for me (if I store it correctly)
When I read the ingredients on body wash it turns me away.
If i cant pronounce it I don't want it on my skin.
I normally use body wash on my face, and continue with the bar soap for the rest of my body. Interestingly, I do this pretty much for the exact reasons pointed out in the video. Body wash is more gentle and moisturizing on my face, while the bar of soap gets the job done quickly and efficiently. By using a combination of the two, I find it is also very economical because your not going through body wash like crazy.
Solid point!
your dumb ass puts body wash on your face
I am a Ayurveda bar soap guy. But now i might try the shower gel
Vaisakh Sabu does it dry out your skin? I use dove bar soap
I use something called "Dawn"(actually it's Aldi brand dish-soap). Works great for my hair and body plus it's a little cheaper than body wash.
DAWN???that's for dishwashing and washing oil spill animals!...LOL
I'm a dirty boy.
TheTarrMan no you're a duck 🦆. From an oil spill
adiksadiatabs No, you're a duck.
I used to use a soap bar until eight months ago, but I discovered that I could take a shower faster with a body washer bottle. That is why I use it.
"Certain hairs there..." Lol
I truly enjoy your videos. they inform me and my dad lol . we like to always present ourselves with highest degree and we could not have done it without you. hands down favorite channel
Thanks!
When I'm at home, I use bar soaps but when I'm traveling, it's always body wash.
Bar soap all the way. I always buy the best classic brand (a solid old fashioned brand, preferably one that has been going for at least a hundred years or more) I can afford, like Penhaligons, Floris or Truefitt & Hill and I wash hair, face and body with it. I was taught how to do this by the matron of my prep school and have been doing it for 58 years. Never had a problem.
In all honesty I despise liquid soap, it leaves suds and never quite washes off properly
Tell me about
Video starts at 1:58
You can actually see the video summary in the description :)
I wash with soap then scrub with body wash
I use Dove Men+Care 1/4 moisturizer bar soap. Works wonders for me. Doesn't last as long as traditional bar soaps but feels great on the skin and exfoliates as well!
I smell quite a bit for a guy, when I sweat, so I love to use a combination of antibacterial soaps and body washes, to make me COME ALIVE AGAIN!!!
A guy named Marlene?
Recently started using body washes and have tried a bunch of brands and not very satisfied. I am used to the rich lather of a bar and no body wash brand has even come close to the lather. It just makes the skin slimy so the hand glides more easily to help clean but little to no lather.
BTW to those who say they have dry skin, you guys should try something called Castile soap or Bastile soap, it may not smell the best but I'd say it's equally moisturising as body wash and has the added benefit of being environment friendly(that soap itself bio degradable). It's basically a soap made with pure olive oil. If you find some place that sells handmade soap it's more likely that it has no added chemicals or preservatives so you can be sure whatever you are using is 100% soap and only soap and not some weird chemicals that we can't eat. If you can't eat it don't put it on your body.
Bodywash hands down the best given its extremely convenient
I agree and disagree. Bar soap feels better, more authentic, especially when it’s natural. But I like the smell of body wash and how much easier it is. But bar soap is just better to me
Shea moisture olive and green tea bar soap leaves your skin super moisturized and feeling awesome
Bar of soap. It is so much easier and efficient and I can use up every bit of it. A tip, you can get a scented bar of soap like irish spring or whatever you prefer, drop it in your sock draw and it scents everything up.
Agreed!
Thank you for everything you do Antonio. I watch a lot of your videos. I am subscribed and love your perspective on things.
Coal tar bar man all the way.
I feel great and smell great.
Plus, I seem to remind the ladies of their grandparents...
After having been a body wash man for most of my life, I switched to bar since I can find natural bars more readily. To help keep it for months and months, I cut maybe a quarter off and keep the rest in the original cardboard box. After using that piece, I keep it in a small plastic bottle to keep it out of my sons' hands.
I use both, I like both 🛁
Hey that's great that you can interchange these!
I have been using Dettol bodywash for 2 months. I always notice that even after rinsing myself, there's always traces of white foam on my body. I am always a thorough washer and I always use my hands to wipe my body thoroughly when I shower. But this Dettol bodywash keeps leaving traces. Not only that, after I shower my skin still has this slippery feeling and feels itchy
though you have to add: do not watch this while you're eating! 😅😂
Usually a bar soap 🧼 but periodically do use a body wash. Still prefer a bar but can use either.
Body wash. I will the brand your showing though. Thank you for a great review.
Great brandon!
Usually body wash but will try bar of soap. Im partial to imperial leather body wash but their soaps are where they got their fame so will try one.
Imperial leather foam burst is a lot of fun as well, pretty much expanding foam for your body
if I use body wash it's feels sticky and uncleaned for me. :)
Aomine Daiki
same here...
Antonio, if you're reading these comments here is my concern. I have stuck with bar soap solely for this reason: Fragrance. I like the way my cologne smells. I get compliments on it. It is a good fit for my body chemistry. My worry with shower gels is the fragrance will at a minimum take the focus off my cologne and at a maximum, overpower it. Your thoughts.
I am a girl-but bar soap,cause I feel it is more effective 😊
Fantastic video! I like using body washes. Lately, I've been using a body wash from Irish Spring. It's fantastic ... and it makes me feel great every time I use it. You should try it sometime.
Thanks Joseph!
Bar soap as it is mostly cheaper than body wash!(why to buy an iPhone when oneplus does the job in less price)😎
Ghost rix Oh hey a tech guy. Sup! :)
LMAO I agree.
You must be buying some cheap crap soap then because Bar Soap & Body washes are about the same, sometimes the wash is cheaper if you buy a pack of 3 or 4 and last longer than the soap.
Neurogena rain bath
Have dry skin and don’t dry out my skin
Plus it don’t leave my shower dirty
Bodywash all the way. Was it just me or was there an echo?
Reverse Lee lol only you. Another echo.
Bars of soap dont long last for me tbh. Bodywash all the way fam.
Body wash guy here, but I like your facts for both.
Hahaha...I know u say bar soap...I also a bar soap guy..Because bar soap can deep clean our body & if I use bar soap I can easily scrub my body much more than body wash...Awesome review
I like how your idea of a winner is the winner for each person separately not everyone without exception
:)
Antonio that shirt looks a little tight on your collar area. Maybe you should unbutton one more button. Idk maybe it's the style too, it just seems like it to me.
In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub.
I have always used body wash but i want to give a bar a try :)
Rusizzle buy a soap bar like the TR X5 bar you can change the colour of it and it automatically lets you no how clean u are pretty cool things
I've always tried to use body wash especially since I've always had eczema and other skin problems. Bars like you said tend to dry my skin out way too fast, I might try a few brands just because, but even then I know I'm safer using body washes.
5 Reasons why men actually use bodywash :
1.
2.
3.
4.
5. My gf made me bought it.
Alexei Cáceres 😂
It smells better, doesn't make your skin ducked up, it's not gross, not for broke people.
I use both... I could never completely give up my bar soap❤️
if I lived on my own then maybe I would go with the bar soap but I live with my family and the thought of someone cleaning their ass with bar soap just puts me off. so the clear winner is the body wash for me at this time of my live.
Great video as always Antonio =)
Good point!
Lmao this comment made my day. I need me a good laugh for this bad day. Thanks.
I just switched to an exfoliating body wash and it is amazing. It has a great smell and it leaves my skin extremely soft.
I thought bars were only for washing hands.
They make em just for face or body as well.
*Liquid Soaps = Healthier - Want LESS TIRED or LESS SLEEPY after Shower? Get rid of all your Bar Soap and use Liquid Soap and you will thank me later! Oh, BONUS... NO CLEAN Shower or Tub too!*
I just go out and buy a bar of zote then drill a hole through the center and loop a piece of rope thought it. works great and had never given me problems
im a body wash guy :3
Same
Don't think I didn't catch "more gentler"! Haha love the videos keep it up.
Bar soap all the way! Body wash don't foam shit.
Try QV, it foams like soap.
Chintan Pandya... use a loofah with the wash. The better the wash, the less you have to use (and it lathers better too)
Agreed
Thank you gentlemen for your tips. I have tried loofah but it's just too much hassle to first foam up the loofah and then use it. Also, the foam doesn't stay for long.
I haven't tried QV. Will check it out. Thanks!
Bodywash and a loofah usually, I'm a sweaty guy and usually have to wash up twice because once doesn't make me feel clean and body acne. So I noticed my body acne isn't as bad because I can exfoliate too. I use bar soap and rags too either way...I get clean
Body wash is a scam, a waste of money.
David Broughall waste of plastic too
I use the bar for cleaning and then use bodywash for a finishing touch and smell.
