Having a matching
set of bar soap and hand towels that display your love for the Greek key design in your extra bathroom allows for an interesting conversation piece with your house guests.
And while it's true that certain bars are full of skin - stripping ingredients that dry you out, there's a new
generation of bar soaps — for both face and body — on the rise that may just make you reconsider your go - to liquid cleanser.

types of bar soaps are made from vegetable (not mineral) oil blends and have the glycerin put back in so they clean without drying skin.
For starters, the environmental
impact of bar soap is meager compared to that of its liquid counterpart, with one investigation finding that its carbon footprint is 25 percent lower on average.
Fans
of bar soap love that these products tend to last a long time in your shower and have seriously moisturizing formulas.
I'm not a fan
of bar soap for washing my body with but that is what I use to shave my legs instead of shaving cream.
If you do not have styptic, take a
bit of bar soap and press it over the area to cap it.
