The before and after of switching to bar soap for everything

Honestly, I thought bar soap was just for hands and nothing else. About 3 months ago I got tired of my liquid body wash running out every two weeks and costing $8 a bottle. So I grabbed a $1.50 pack of Dial bars from the grocery store and started using them for my body, my face, and even shaving my legs. The difference in my bathroom trash is wild, I used to toss a plastic bottle every few weeks and now I barely have any waste. My skin actually feels cleaner too, no weird residue left behind like with the liquid stuff. Plus a single bar lasts me nearly a month which blows my mind. Has anyone else made this swap and noticed their skin acting different at first?

lmao bar soap gang rise up. wait till you realize you can just use one bar for everything including shampoo and now you're a full on cave person like me. my skin went through a weird greasy phase for a week then leveled out way better than the liquid stuff ever did. the plastic bottle guilt is real though, i feel like a total environmental criminal every time i see a bottle of body wash now. also pro tip if you drop the bar in the shower you get a free game of slip n slide before you break your neck.

Real talk though the grease phase is just your skin figuring out how to regulate its own oils without all the stripping chemicals. Your body is basically detoxing lol.
