I've always wondered if there was any noticeable affect using the caffeinated soap from ThinkGeek.

That looks very similar to the TJ's soap I was using for a little while. The only reason I stopped was it didn't suds up that much so I found I was using more of it to clean myself making it more expensive in the long run.

+1 That soap rocks, especially after you've worked on your bike and your hands are black! It's also the best soap to keep your beard fresh and clean.

Here is what I use for showers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XtaQAS4dzA

I've been thinking of picking up some Dr. Bronner's when I finish off my Irish Spring--more proof that BF is reading my mind.

I use soap from a local natural soap company called the soap works. I really like the one I am using right now. Its called coal tar soap and it is pitch black. Its really good for my dry skin.

I noticed a huge difference after switching from the Dial soap. My skin is much nicer and doesn't get irritated.

I can't find a picture of Kroger brand bar soap. Although if I could I'm sure it would fascinate most people. :p

Mine is a bouttique soap called "whatever my wife buys at the store" I really like that it makes suds and usually am less malodorous post soap application and removal.

Mrs. Mouse makes her own soap. Something new every batch--lavender, eucalyptus, peppermint, stuff like that.

In all seriousness, I was convinced by a girlfriend that I lived with years ago to start using brushes and liquid soap in the shower. I do feel I get a LOT cleaner as I'm reaching places I could barely get to before.

I tend to get whatever soap appeals to me at the time, but I try to find soaps that are "hydrating" as I am very prone to dry skin.

I can't find anything that I like since Lush stopped selling some of their more awesome shower gels like Chai (self-explanatory) and Slammer (lemon-lime citrusy). Sonic Death Monkey (heavy chocolate tones) is OK if you wanna smell like a Hershey Bar all day, and I can't bring myself to use anything called Happy Hippy, even if it does smell like grapefruit.
I can't find anyplace around here that sells Pangea Organics Canadian Pine soap anymore. There used to a shop over in Capitol Hill, but not any longer. That stuff is truly fantastic.

I used to like Zest. Particularly the white bar.

But I understand they have become just a regular soap. Made them smaller and gave them new 'zippy' names.
