Bar soap at home (dove unscented). Will use liquid on vacation because it's easier than traveling with a wet bar of soap, but I prefer bar soap for the shower. (We do use liquid hand soap in the bathrooms though.)
Bar soap as soon as I hop in shower to get all over clean. Then I use a mesh shower sponge with liquid body wash to finish up. I started this summers ago when I used self tanning lotion to keep my color even and it morphed into an everyday ritual.
I'm "Both - whatever someone else buys for me." I think I've only bought one bar of soap for myself in the past 20-25 years because it's such a popular gift from people who don't know you well. I always seem to have an artisanal soap or a nice-smelling Bath & Body Works body wash that someone included in a gift package. Not even necessarily recently — I've run out of one soap and looked under the sink to see if I have something to replace it, to find I've still got a gift soap from my college years bouncing around in there.
Dove bar soap only in the tub. I find it awkward to squeeze the big bottles of body wash. I take a bar with me when we travel. Foaming hand soap at all the sinks.
At home it’s been liquid soap for about 25 years now. On longer trips by car I’ll bring some along. For shorter trips or by air, I’ll deal with whatever the hotel provides.
I converted DH to liquid body wash soon after we got married.
Liquid in winter - better for your skin so they say - I just like sometimes because it easy and smells nice - Bath & Body I only have a few hundred bottles thanks to their sales !! Haa haa
Bar soap
This year I've started treating myself to some scented bar soaps I find at Marshall's. They are huge and cumbersome the first week but size down after that so I'm not constantly dropping it. My latest has a cinnamon, pumpkin, vanilla scent.
