What kind of soap do you use?
We use Dove bodywash. When I was single before I met DH, I used to buy whatever bodywash that smelled really good to me. After DH and I moved in together he got mad because I had bought a bottle of bodywash that smelled too 'girly' to him LOL. He likes soap that smells like soap, not fruity, flowery or bontanical. He doesn't even like the Wal-mart brand (Equate) of softsoap I used to buy, I didn't think it was too fragrant but I guess it is to him. He went out and bought us a big jug of Dial hand soap for our bathroom dispenser. We're still using it. And I have my own bottle of girly-smelling bodywash for days when I want to pamper myself.
“When you get to the end of all the light you know
and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown,
faith is knowing that one of two things will happen:
you will be given something solid to stand on,
or you will be taught how to fly.” - Edward Teller
“Our Earth is degenerate in these later days;
there are signs that the world is speedily
coming to an end;
bribery and corruption are common; children no
longer obey their parents;
every man wants to write a book and the
end of the world is evidently approaching.”
— From a translation of an inscription on
an Assyrian clay tablet, circa 2800 B.C.E.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.

We use Oil of Olay, the yellow colored bottle - it's the extra dry skin stuff. I like it.

Dove Cucumber & Green Tea
I think that's what it's called...it's the green bar. My dh and the kids all have dry skin and Dove is the only thing that doesn't make their skin itch. I use the Dove bar or whatever Bath & Body Works gel I happen to have on hand. Currently it's the Cherry Blossom fragrance!

I use Cetaphil. I went to a dermatologist a few years back, and he recommended it as one of the few perfume/additive free soaps out there. Nice lather, too!
