I love the Dove unscented sensitive skin. And I'll have to look into the Aveda rosemary mint for my husband, who loves rosemary.

I want the Dr. Bonner's one, but I could never spend more than maybe $5 for bar soap, the Chanel one is crazy.

I transitioned to bar soap five years ago, but I've been using the same one - Dove - ever since. Definitely time to try something new!

The Bliss one looks interesting.

It seems like no matter what, bar soaps dry my skin out so badly. I like having some fancy chunks of soap from LUSH at my bathroom sink, but those are only used for washing hands.

I rediscovered bar soaps a couple of years ago and I;m not going back to washes.

I love bar soaps, my favourite is from dove.

I haven't used bar soaps in a long time (body washes only) bu I guess these are perfect suggestions to start trying something new!

by yestfl Tuesday, March 5, 2013 at 04:08PM Report as inappropriate

Excellent choices! Some of my favorites are Caress, Dr. Bronner's, Dove, and Bigelow.
