Bar Soap in Cabin

[chamima]

We will be on the Sapphire this coming fall and I wondered if it's still possible to get bar soap in the cabin or it's all the liquid stuff.

(Just want to know if we have to bring our own)

 

Thanks all!

They no longer have bars of soap, only liquid.  We bring our own.

Haven’t seen it on any ship since the restart. Liquid stuff shower and sink.

Dislike bar soap and the liquid soap provided by Princess.  We bring our own soap, shampoo/conditioner and body wash.

I got bar soap by asking the room steward last winter.

We did too in Feb 22 on CB, but they said they were switching it to liquid after that.  Haven’t had it since, so just take it myself.

 

You could still ask, I guess.

We’re boomers and we really dislike any bar soap.  It gets all slimy and slick and the guck sticks to the soap dish or counter top. Also, my arthritic hands have difficulty gripping the wet bar.  We buy good quality liquid soap and body wash.  Each pump is fresh and clean and no goop!  To each their  own!

Very true about to each their own.  But most silly internet clickbait lists of "Things Millennials Are Making Extinct" all include bar soap, since only old fogey Boomers still use it. 

 

I hate body wash because I'd use up a whole bottle in about three showers!

Yes, you do need to exercise  moderation with body wash!  lol. A little bit of the good kind goes a long way.  In fact, I get much a more luxurious lather with my body wash.  TMI? lol

Do you use one of those poofy scrubbers too?  Maybe we need some pics!😉

Yes, I use the poof when available but not adverse to using a hand lather.  This post seems to be heading into dangerous territory, so I will just leave it at that.  😜

Who knew asking a simple question about a (boring) bar of soap could go where this has! 🤣 🤣 🤣

[Potstech]

Who knew? Only the CC posters know.

That liquid stuff is great for washing under ware in the sink.

Sorry, what is under ware?  Personally, I wear lingerie.

Thank you for giving us a little giggle for the day!  It’s good for the soul.

That’s US terminology, especially us Southerners.  But, it’s spelled underwear.  Lol

I thought for a moment she meant Under Armour!  They make fabulous active wear.  My DH wears underwear.  We don’t often use that word for women’s undergarments. 😉

Liquid soap is (barely) satisfactory in the shower, but sometimes I just want to wash my face at the sink with soap and water and for that I want a bar.

I asked for bar soap and got it from the cabin steward.

I use the liquid soaps provided but bring hair conditioner the 2 in 1 shampoo is alright but I still need a good conditioner. No bar soap for me if the other way around I would be bringing my own shower gel.

You wouldn’t want to use liquid soap in the shower.  You need good quality body wash, not the kind they sell at Walmart.  I’m sure Princess bulk purchases the absolute cheapest hand soap, both bar and liquid, and body wash that’s available.  Probably equivalent to what you use to wash your car. lol

May I suggest Beekman or L’occitane.

I’ll bet you have Avon bath products!  They’re actually quite nice.
