Gotta use the Dove original beauty bar, at the risk of sounding like a shill it's seriously the only bar soap that doesn't leave your skin feeling all weird and sticky

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I alternate between Dove and Caress both leave my skin nice and smooth; I'll occasionally use a gel but they feel like they leave a layer so I don't use them much.

I've found the same, although I'm sure other good ones exist. Just haven't had a reason to try them.

Used Duke Cannon for a while, liked them too but frankly I'd much rather pick up a pack of soap when I'm shopping than have to worry about ordering some online.

Iโ€™ve seen Duke Cannon in lots of brick-and-mortar stores.

I see them here and there, and occasionally still pick them up when I do (love the fragrances), but unfortunately it's usually at shops I don't frequent or as a seasonal end cap.

Edit: highly recommend their solid cologne too, nice scents and it lasts forever

Solid cologne?? Ok now I must Google. Never heard of such

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's great. I don't use it too often, only really when I'm going out, but I've had the same container for 3 or 4 years now and it's maybe half gone. Think it cost me maybe $30 shipped?

I have been using Dove for a long time now. Recently I have been thinking that it moisturizes too much. I wish I could find a bar soap that moisturizes like Dove but maybe half as much moisturizing.

I've not yet gone down the interwebs rabbit hole to find it.

I've been really liking Aleppo Soap. 3 ingredients: olive oil, laurel oil, and lye. I find it moisturizes just enough, and doesn't have that weird smell that Dove has.
