so is shampoo just as good as a body wash?

that's a good question....

Usually shampoos have different scents and aren't as harsh - essentially they are dilluted and smell differently.
They might have additional chemicals in them for dealing with keratin (or in hopes of dealing with it), whereas the soap might have something to deal with collagen (sp?) and maybe an anti-biotic.

In the end, they are just surfactants that essentially break the surface tension of the water and allow it to work better.

LOL - my fiancee makes fun of me for it. She says I'm obsessive compulsive and if I want to do something, I learn everything there is about it until I reach the end of it and then just drop it and move on to something else.

It is just a matter of how much I remember of it.

I couldn't tell you the names of the antibiotics that are used in hand soaps, but I could tell you their methods of action and why I think they are a bad idea for the general public.
