Petrolina, I have never heard of a soap darkening or lightening the complexion. Soap is used to clean skin and it ends up down the drain so it’s not important which one you use as long as it is effective and gentle. If you need to lighten your skintone, then you should look for a product that contain hydroquinone and wear sunscreen daily.

Katie, those are good points. I think the chances of getting any bacteria infections from a bar soap are pretty remote, but still I prefer liquid soaps as they come in a more hygienic packaging.

I would go with liquid soap because when you use it your bacteria stayes on your hands and you wash it off instead of leaving a small amount of bacteria on the bar soap. And you dont have to clean your shower/bath tub as often at you would with bar soap.

Caper632, I agree with you. I prefer liquid soaps for the same reasons, they’re good and cheap. But using bar soaps is nice too sometimes.

I have liquid soap dispensers I find them efficient, inexpensive, sanitary. I refill them with dish soap for sensitive skin which is inexpensive compared to some of the liquid soap refills. My hubby uses bar soap in the shower.

I agree with you Ashly and thanks for the tip about the hand sanitizer. I’ve been using that quite a lot lately, it’s really necessary nowadays.

i usually prefer liquid soap just cuz it’s easier to squirt and go but bar soap really does get that grease and stuff off of me. If you guys are concerned about bacteria after using bar soap, why not put on some hand sanitizer? That’s what I do!
Either way, I’m glad everybody is cautious about what goes on their skin and I’m glad everyone washes their hands!! It’s needed these days.
