I just switched back to bar soap. Didn't realize how much I missed it.

I use shower gel. It isn't a cost issue for me because I can usually get it just as cheap as bar soap with sales and coupons.

I use bar soap, unless I can get gel really cheap.

My reward for working out is a nice shower afterwards with vanilla scented shower gel!

I haven't found anything I like better than plain old Ivory Soap, so that's what I use.

Funny, I am allergic to Ivory Soap...it must be that 00.01% of ingredients. I love shower gel but don't spend the money on it. I usually get some for Christmas from my Mom. I use bar soap and the kind depends on what is on sale.

We each like different types and scents. So we buy Dove bar soap and several different scents of Soft Soap body wash.

I use Mary Kay Shower Gel. I just love the smell and a little goes a long way IMO.

I love dove body soap. But if it's not on sale I will buy whatever my skin can handle seeing as I'm allergic to a lot of different soaps/perfumes.

Shower gel here. I have not bought any for over a year and I still have a 7 month supply thanks to a great deal where I got 12 bottles for the price of 4. Soap makes me sneeze my head off and I itch all over. When I was younger, before shower gel, I would use shampoo instead of soap. I use one of those round scratchy body things so it doesn't take very much gel to go a long way.

It is shower gel for us as well. I have soap and perfume allergies/ sensitivities, and bar soap tends to make them worse.
I also like the fact that shower gel leaves much less soap scum.
For some reason I have find bar soap icky. I would have to buy a bar each member of the family. We can share shower gel.Julie
