The 7 Best Bar Soaps for Men
While I wouldn't personally use it, many guys like a good bar soap. Generally, the formulations of most bar soaps are fat or oil and water. The ingredients that comprise most bar soaps differ from those of bath gels and shower creams in that they require no external packaging. Because of this, bar soaps tend to be more eco-friendly. I also know that men for the most part do not care about products being sustainable. Instead, the men I know seek a unifying shower product. And that's precisely why we rounded up the best bar soaps for men.

7 Best Bar Soaps For Men
Best Natural Bar Soap for Men: Tom's of Maine Natural Beauty Bar
If I had to think about natural body care brands-those that make nontoxic body wash and natural deodorant-I would think of Tom's of Maine. This mint beauty bar gently cleanses the face and body to reveal hydrated, luminous skin. That is all thanks to the shea butter in the formula, perfect for literally any skin type.
The Best Smelling Bar Soap for Men: Dove Men+Care Cleansing Bar Soap
Best Bar Soap for Men With Dry Skin: L'Occitane Extra-Gentle Solid Soap
There are two main star ingredients in this bar soap: first, shea butter can retain moisture that's normally released by dry skin. The second is organic verbena extract, which is indeed rich in antioxidants and, therefore, very helpful to skin hydration. Don't think that means your skin isn't clean afterward, though. There's a gentle lather that takes out all the grime without drying out the skin.
Best Exfoliating Bar Soap For Men: Jack Black Charcoal Body Bar Massaging Soap
Best Men's Bar Soap for Body Odor: Irish Spring Bar Soap
If you're over a certain age, then you know Irish Spring is the OG men's bar soap. The mint-green bar has notes of amber, bergamot, and ginger, so it's got a really fresh scent. It's best for body odor because it's designed as a deodorant soap-meaning that it helps attract and lock in moisture that would lead to a bad scent. It's also a gentle soap that won't mess with your skin barrier.
Best for men's oily skin: Shea Moisture African Black Soap
Let me just preface everything I'm about to say by warning you that the marketing team at Shea Moisture really needs to reconsider the copy on the front of this product; it says it's good for "troubled, dry skin." And sure, it does contain ingredients that are very good for dry skin - think aloe, oats, and vitamin E. But the thing is, African Black Soap can sometimes dry you out, which is why we recommend it for oily skin. This would stripe the excess sebum without totally drying you out, especially if you have acne-prone skin.
