Gel.

Bar and my skin don't usually agree. Usually leaves my skin dry, but that's probably because I'm not going for the right bars, but even with Dove gel, and Dove bars, or similar kinds, my skin becomes dry.

Gel FTW! I used to use Axe Kilo but when the bottle ran out I switched to suave for men ocean mist or something. It's much more refreshing and less like a perfume/colonge.

Same reason I use gel. Bars leave my skin dry

I've used that Suave stuff before, it's pretty good.

At school I prefer the gel soap because we have communal bathrooms, and I have to carry my shower gear back and forth. At home, where I have permanent ownership of a soap dish.

This stuff came in some freebie magazines this month. I tried it and I liked how the pieces of grit felt rough against my skin. The roughness made me feel clean. I don't think I was actually cleaned. I think it was an illusion caused by the roughness of the grit. I don't really notice much of a difference and I am not sure I am much cleaner. I am tempted to buy a full bottle of it and try it out but I will probably forget.

Lol I tried that stuff. It smells better on you after you use it than when you just open it and sniff it.

I switched to liquid soap and never looked back. I also use the Suave Ocean Breeze. Bar is so last century.

I used the "Snake peel". It's pretty good stuff...not my favorite smell though

Yeah, tried that too, it was okay, but it felt a bit like rubbing a goo and sand mixture on myself.
