    Why use bar soap for shaving?

    On rare times, I have been forced to shave with a bar soap, such as Ivory, or Dove, or Camay. It has worked good for me, but yes, I would agree it is not the best way.

    I've tried Dove before myself. It worked fairly well- course it's not exactly "regular" bar soap either...

    It's not? It is a cream soap, yes? This I always thought--and I found it good for shaving, and with very good skincare. My wife uses it a lot for her showers, or baths.

    Cream soap is a good way of describing it in my book. :) Better than what I could have said. BoyE can probably say more about it later since he knows more about shower soaps than me...;)

    Me too, I don't doubt that. It was just a joke since you said he was extraordinary and that is also his name here. ;)

    Dove, Caress, Olay, etc. are not true soaps but "beauty bars."

    They're formed like soap - they're bars, not liquid - but they're a fusion of soap and detergent. Consequently, they can't be dubbed soap on their boxes but something finicky like "beauty bar."

    At the end of the day they're for little girls.

    Remember, Jeff, I went from "Plow" to this beautiful & distinguished name.

    Since they are not "true" soaps by FDA definition, they cannot be called soap; only a "bar"; like a beauty bar.
