Theres a research conduct by Goodhousekeeping Research Institute, they tested 10 newest moisturizing washes against traditional bar soap. Volunteers applied each cleanser to the underside of their forearms in the lab, then lathered and rinsed. Over the next four hours, they recorded the hydration level of each person's skin surface with a moisture-measuring machine called Corneometer. Testers also showered with the products at home, grading them on scent and ease of use. What they found: While you'll still need your post-shower moisturizer(non of the washes were hydrating enough to replace it), all the cleansers they tested are less drying than the bar soap. Softsoap nutra-Oil Moisturizing Body wash with Almond oil & Shea Butter and Suave Exhale inspiring body wash in Lime verbena moisturized the best, tying for the one spot in lab evaluations. Softsoap also rated tops with the tester themselves.
Time to dish out the bar soap, well I like bodywashes than soap bar, it's easy to use.
