Well I agree with you, I think soaps should not be used for washing our face. Instead the face cleansers can be used to clean our face and then we can wash our face with plain water.

the only soap i have use in washing my face is Dove, the rest are facial wash such as Ponds, Dove and facial scrub such as St. Yves... but the excellent product for me is St. Yves apricot scrub

I wash my face with a product called Herbalism made by Lush.com. It's kind of a soft, strange textured product. I take a small amount and get it wet to make a paste, and then rub it on my skin. It's all natural, organic, and vegetarian so there are no harsh chemicals. My skin is amazing since I started using it.

Hi, zengguoxing, I often use cleanser, it not as dry after use as with soap. However, nowadays many productor have new knid of soap for use, I want to try wash face with soap, too.

I agree with your opinion my friend. I don't use soap for my face too. Water is all I splash upon my face. I have a hypersensitive skin so I always avoid soap on my face.

At 44 years of age, the acne is driving me crazy. In the shower in the morning I first wash my face with Lever 2000, then I use an exfoliant (apricot scrub) to open up the pores, and then I was with Avon's Porefection. At night I use either Avon's Porefection toner or Biore toner to clean the oil and dirt off my face and then put Clearskin Overnight Acne Treatment.
I have tried so many things to try and keep my acne under control. It's not bad, but it is annoying. I've tried Emu oil which is supposed to help for acne but it didn't work for me. And I'm using Dream Cream which may or may not be working.
I don't think any of the ladies in my family ever had this problem in their adulthood. *sigh*

I have face cleanser that I use. I have to pick kinds that will help with acne, because I tend to have a problem with that. I never had acne as a teenager, but now that I'm adult I have it. Bleh.
I have washed my face with regular old soap before when it was all I had around, but it does make my face feel dry and yucky.

hello zengguoxing, I wash my face with special face cleanser. I dont use soap because the soap is meant for our body and the ingredient might not suitable to use on the face.
