Certain soaps such as Dove (yuck! I hate that stuff!) have an overabundance of oils, lotion, and moisturizers which are intended keep your skin feeling supple and soft. Unfortunately it gets in the way of working up a good lather and the skin-friendly stuff bonds to your skin making it feel all oily and unclean. I guess some people equate that oily lotion that's now coated their skin with a nice gentle clean and having soft skin.
Oh, and btw, washpuffs are for big girly men. I just put the bar of soap directly ON me. Makes much more sense. And doesn't disturb my delicate homophobia.
If I told you that chicks including myself also use the soap bar directly on the body, would that disturb you?

Yeah, me too. The only time I use any kind of scrubbies (loofahs, known here as 'washpuffs') is when I'm pampering myself, which is hardly ever.
So now what, Vym? What does that do to your delicate homophobia?

Loofah: long, exfoliating hard sponge-like object, used for reaching behind the back and for making knob jokes.
Body Puff: a round, soft exfoliating thing made of folded plastic mesh and a string that absorbs shower gel and lathers up easily to cover the body with foam.
And yes, I use a body puff, because I use shower gel, not soap, and that can't be applied by hand.
And yes, I'm very clean, thank you very much. the trick being, I rinse after washing.

I personally like a shower puff. It's easy to use.

Yep yep, why did they all call it a Loofah?!?
Anyways, I find shower gel a lot easier to use, no hair on the soap or anything
But you can find hair in the puff itself.

That's why I wash the puff off after I"m done with it. It also helps get the remaining suds off.
I guess, but there's always one little hair that doesn't want to go.

Ok, how many people here use plain old washcloths? You know, those little squares of towel material that work really nicely and that you only have to throw in the laundry when you're done?
All this talk about using loofahs and puffs makes me want to wash myself with steel wool, bleach and a washboard.

I use my hand and the rule of thumb: Does it smell? Apply soap until it stops smelling.
And I found that while the liquid soap needs to be used in ridiculous amounts to succeed in this goal, it's just the ticket for getting enamel and acrylic paints out of clothes, carpets and (in one case) net curtains.

I take a hands on approach to cleaning. No gloves and fluffy stuff for me.

'Nuff said!
Gotta love the Irish Spring, it's dirt cheap at the drug stores and does a damn good job of cleaning. Smells pretty good too, and I feel so fresh and clean after using it. Fa is nice too, it costs a bit more but it doesn't sting my eyes as much, and it gets me just as fresh and clean.

Say, do you want it to be a threesome with your wife? Or a foursome with your wife and sister-in-law? I'm up for either.
