Wright's Coal Tar soap was the bad boy, until they ruined it by taking out the carcinogens.
Lifebuoy, Shield, Imperial Leather were nice... Oo members Lux or Camay?

Pears too, always liked it cos it was transparent

More money than sense comes to mind with that one.

Something like Simple Soap for me.

Nazi Germany made soap from their own soldiers corpses, along with holocaust victims.

Yip, mum bought these when I was a kid.

In no particular order: imperial leather, dove, shield, coal tar, Lidl's own brand, Morrisons' vanilla.

Dove, but the bars are continually shrinking.

135g > 125g > 100g > 90g.

Same. When you peel off the sticker there's a perfect little square to suction the sliver of the old one on to and let the soap weld together.

I use Home Bargain's own brand soap dispenser. As pictured. I use the orange version.

Don't use bars, i use dispensers for my hands

ShiWarrior · 18 Dec 2022 at 16:17

On the other hand I do like chocolate bars

Real men use a stainless steel bar of soap

. And chefs.

Right now I'm using Imperial Leather. I got a multipack cheap. Before that I used coal tar soap.

Ignore the marketing BS, it is a soap by any meaningful definition. It just has extra ingredients.
