It turns out there is a difference between these types of soap.

Washing with solid soap is called saponification. This product consists of fats, alkalis and various oils - coconut, olive and castor.

But solid soap does not have one advantage that liquid soap has. During the production process of the second option, ammonia is added to the product to achieve a certain consistency.

Liquid soap is considered more hygienic than solid soap. There is also an opinion that some microbes and dirt remain on the surface of solid soap.
