My mom always liked Ivory soap because it was pure and natural. It didn’t have artificial dyes and chemicals in it.

What the frick it doesn’t float? That was the whole thing. It’s like saying I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter is really butter

I think that's Irish Spring's claim to fame...
No. Ivory is the one that floats. I know because when I was a kid in the 70s and still took baths, I’d pretend the Ivory bar was an enemy ship that I had to sink. But when mom bought Irish Spring it sucked because it wouldn’t float.

Doesn't feel the same, smell the same, or even float anymore. It's just like some other generic bar of soap.

By the time you unwrap it and walk across the bathroom to put it in the shower it's shrunk to 50% of its original size.

Ivory soap is actually terrible. It once left me so uncomfortably dry I had to use my wife’s moisturizing lotion afterwards
I only use ivory, and the whole reason is because I like feeling dry.
Can’t stand feeling all oily after a shower.

Even Irish Spring isn't the same as it was a long time ago.

It changed back in the 80’s or 90’s. It used to be more white with green striping and stronger scent. The OG at the store smells right, just not as strong.

My go-to in the 80s/90s. Ivory was just too plain, I never felt fully clean.

Ivory soap has always sucked. Need to get the OG Irish Spring.
I love Irish Spring. But it has not escaped enshittification. The bars are smaller now.

It floated because it was filled with air and contained less soap.

Sick burn on bath takers.

My grandparents used Ivory too. I preferred Safeguard but my grandfather said it made him break out in a rash.

Safeguard breaks me out in a rash too. Ivory is all I buy.

Had uncles that used to bathe in the bayou at their camp. They used ivory soap bc it would float.
Same at Lake of the Ozarks. Bathrooms get jammed up? Lake bath!
