Don't You Wish Everybody Used This?

My family used "Ivory" and "Cashmere Bouquet" soaps growing up (I still love "Ivory"). Only when I was older did I use Dial. It does clean well and leave you smelling fresh. It can be a bit drying--which can be a good thing, as several women I know claim it cleared their acne. I need to moisturize after using, but I still like it--a lot!

Dial Soap

My family used Dial soap my whole childhood. Back then, (1980's) this was the best soap around, but it has always dried my skin out. The scent is one I do remember fondly, but when I moved out, I switched to Dove because it doesn't me out and now my kids are growing up with Dove. I don't want them to have the dry skin I had while using Dial.

Love their deodorant bars

I have to use aluminum-free deodorant and although I have found one that works fairly well, the protection cannot match those with the chemicals and aluminum. So I supplement by deodorant by washing my underarms with Dial's Antibacterial Deodorant Soap Bars. The scent is super classic and fresh but not overpowering at all. I find that this works better than my regular body wash when used under ...read moremy arms. I especially notice the difference when I use this between showers. I have washed my underarms with regular soap, or even other liquid soaps that claim to deodorize but this soap from Dial makes a noticeable difference. In between showers, this seems to be the only soap that completely eliminates odor and lasts (when used in conjunction with my deodorant of course). This provides a really rich lather that forms quickly with just a little water. It rinses away easily, leaving my skin super clean. A bar lasts forever, especially since I don't use this all over my body. I would not use this for the rest of my body just because I have dry, sensitive skin and bar soap is too drying for me.

Good but not moisturizing

If you want squeaky clean, oh, yes, this soap does the job. unfortunately, it also dried out my skin, and I had to apply body lotion right away. BUT my husband (who does not like moisturizing bar soap) likes this one, and he uses it especially when he gets all sweaty. I recommend Dial's antibacterial soap for serious cleaning.

Clean and Good for Shaving

I've used the white antibacterial bar soap in the shower on and off for years. I do feel squeaky clean after a good scrub with this soap, and I feel like I can get a closer shave on my legs when I use this, than when I use a body wash.

a little harsh

I always use dial liquid soap but when I use a bar soap I have to use one that moisturizes too because my skin is so dry so this isn't good for me but my husband uses it every day!

Iconic soap

Smells fresh, not overpowering, doesn't dry your skin. I love this soap. It has been around forever,yet I always return to it. Kills germs, doesn't dry out your skin. Great price.

It's just that—soap

Dial Gold Antibacterial Deodorant Bar Soap is great because it's just that—soap. I want to start by saying it's really not fair that people with acne are giving a soap that doesn't claim to have anti-acne medicine low ratings. If you're someone with that issue & you like Dial, you should be using the Dial Acne Control Face Wash, Dial Acne Control Body Wash, or Dial Acne Control Glycerin Body + F...read moreace Bar. Anyway, Gold is "the bar you can trust for deodorant protection & long-lasting clean." I honestly like its simplicity & the fact that it's, well, soap. It's not fancy or scented like a fruit bowl; it's just good old soap that just cleans my skin & isn't only concerned about pore-clogging moisturizers or making me smell like a grapefruit. I use this in the bath & shower to wash my entire body, & haven't had any bad reactions. The bars lather well, are fragranced like soap, & rinse clean. While it's not moisturizing, it doesn't strip or dry out my skin either. My body just felt softer & clean, & that's what matters the most to me! Not having to choose between effective cleaning my skin & smelling good is the best thing about this! I'm good a whole two days if I use this soap. I take a bath or a shower every other day (Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, & so on) to avoid drying out my skin & even though I can't smell the soap's scent on the following day, I don't smell like sweat or like I've been walking outside. The odor protection is probably what I like the most.
