[captaincaveman]

can a person do the opposite? Use body soap as shaving soap?

Yes, but most won't perform as well as shaving soap.

I got some natural, old-school coconut soap from a local indie retailer which was dubbed as being "great for shaving". Turns out it wasn't but made for an excellent soft and gentle bath soap!

Considering the large price premium that shave soap commands over body soap, you're throwing pearls before swine. But it should make for a really nice shower.

Alternatively, you could try selling or trading them on the BST forum.

I do this and enjoy it.

I'm no doctor, but might recommend rethinking the advisability of using soap that irritates your face on your junk.

Hahahah

Dove is a good soap which can be used as a shaving soap

Personally I apply croaps on my shower sponge almost every time I shower. They perform exceptionally and I reassure myself that my shaving soaps don't get ignored on the shelf

When I make a substandard shaving soap it gets demoted to bath soap. It works well for that. Sometimes shave soaps can be a bit drying though as a bath soap depending on the ingredients.
