I finished pooping and realised my liquid hand soap had run out, so I used a body soap bar to wash them. I had to go outside and use the hand soap in another bathroom to make sure my hands were clean.

Can you use body soap to wash hands properly?

    I was actually kind of confused at first about the liquid and bar soap thing. I’ve used bar soap to wash my hands all my life, and for nothing else. To wash the whole body during a shower, I use liquid soap (called shower gel) and I would find bar soap unwieldy. Moral of the story: your insistence on using one vs the other is entirely cultural.

    Fun fact: even washing-up liquid (dish soap) can be used to wash your hands in a pinch.
