Lather Up and Keep Clean With Bar Soap
Classic bar soap adds an element of tradition to your bath or shower. The best bar soap is one you'll use consistently, so pick a soap with a fragrance and texture you like.
How to Use Bar Soap
Bar soap is simple to use. The soap produces a natural lather that cleanses your skin and leaves you feeling great after a bath or shower. You can also use bar soap as an alternative to liquid hand soap or body wash. Follow up your bath or shower with the application of body lotion or moisturizers to lock in hydration and keep skin soft.
Bar soap with antibacterial properties helps clear away germs for extra cleansing power. Soaps with added fragrance leave a pleasant scent on your hands or body. Soap designed for sensitive skin helps reduce potential irritation, while exfoliating bar soaps include granules that scour away dirt and impurities in your skin as you wash.
Does Bar Soap Expire?
Bar soaps don't expire in the way food does, so a date may not be listed on the packaging letting you know when to replace your soap. Over time, soap can lose its fragrance or become dry and brittle, so you might want to use yours within 2-3 years of purchase. One way to tell if your bar soap is still at its best is to try building up a lather with it. If your soap produces foamy bubbles, it's still likely good enough for everyday use.
Buy bar soap in packs to save money and ensure you always have some on hand. Packs of three, six or 10 bars make staying stocked convenient.
How to Store Bar Soap
The best place to store bar soap is in a dry location near where you plan to use it. Avoid keeping your soap in damp areas or in a place where water might splash over it because soap can melt away upon frequent exposure to moisture. A soap dish or shelf in the bathroom can hold your bar soap until you need it again.
