These 10 Products Prove That Bar Soaps Should Still Be in Your Routine

Beauty icons like Marilyn Monroe and Jacqueline Kennedy swore by Dr. Erno Laszlo's products more than 50 years ago and they're still a cult favorite today. Sephora Beauty Insider Teena Rose declared that it makes her skin glow and is lightening her dark spots. She added, "If this product were a man, I would definitely be asking him to marry me."

Fans of this classic fragrance will want to stock up on this perfumed bath soap, which boasts a rich, creamy lather thanks to vitamin E. Nordstrom reviewer LyndyLu also reported that after using the product, its pleasant scent filled up the bathroom for hours.

Chanel N°5 The Bath Soap ($26)

Procter and Gamble has been producing Ivory soap since 1879, and women still love it for its light, clean scent and multipurpose formula. Drugstore.com reviewer Samantha uses this most on her hands, but recommends others try it to wash fine lingerie and to remove stubborn stains in fabric, too.

Ivory Soap ($4 for 10 bars)

This bar is studded with little granules derived from bamboo, cranberry, and orange peel to buff away dry skin cells while seaberry oil nourishes your hide with deep moisture. Sephora VIB reviewer Twentea exclaimed that she's "obsessed" with this product. "The first time I used it, I noticed a dramatic change in my skin . . . my skin feels super smooth and super moisturized."

Fresh Seaberry Exfoliating Soap ($17)

If you have seriously sensitive skin, this fragrance- and dye-free bar may be your best bet. "I have SUPER sensitive, HIGHLY reactive skin. I'm also acne-prone with rosacea," explained one Drugstore.com reviewer. "This bar has definitely been the best choice for me. I have never had any issues with this cleanser making my skin dry, tight or flaky . . . it's extremely effective."

Aveeno Moisturizing Bar for Dry Skin ($3)

This cruelty-free formula features sustainable, organic ingredients. Because it's all-natural, you can even use it on your pets! It may also clear up your skin. Drugstore.com reviewer Ksflower shared, "It has helped control the small breakouts I would tend to get on my upper back from time to time."

Dr. Bronner's All-One Hemp Almond Pure-Castile Soap ($5)

This vegan, pH-balanced formula uses heilmoor clay to cleanse oil and debris from the skin while virgin marula oil keeps it soft and nourished. Sephora reviewer amesum says, "I unexpectedly fell in love! I have oily/combo acne-prone skin and have tried many different cleansers but none that gave me instant results like this one. After the first use my skin was glowing . . the more I used it, the more I noticed the dark marks on my face left by previous breakouts were becoming less and less noticeable until they completely faded away (within a month)."

Drunk Elephant JuJu Bar ($28)

Orange blossom provides this soap with its decadent fragrance while figs lend their seeds to the lightly exfoliating formula. "I can't stop smelling it," confessed LUSH reviewer Morgan. "It smells earthy and sweet, but it's not overwhelming. When you use it you feel squeaky clean, but leave the shower feeling amazingly soft."

LUSH Figs and Leaves Soap ($8)

You won't just be hooked by the refreshing cucumber and green tea scent (though that's one aspect that keeps us coming back!), you'll also love its seriously creamy lather. Drugstore.com reviewer SpanglieJN said that not only does it leave her moisturized, but saves her money. "You can also shave with it . . . which equates to less products on the shower shelf," she said.

Dove Go Fresh Cool Moisture Beauty Bar

This handmade soap uses charcoal to detox skin while lavender oil controls sebum production, resulting in smaller, less noticeable pores. "I've washed my face with it twice and my skin is already more matte, with smoother texture, and less visible blackheads," said Sephora reviewer NurseJak. "I used to be able to run my hand over my chin and feel the white and blackheads under the skin. No more. My skin is soft, smooth, and less irritated."
