How to wash face- Water or soap

February 12, 2009 4:12am CST
What do you think friends. Should we wash our face with water or should we use soaps. I think we should not use soap. Soaps reduce the moisture in the skin and leads to dryness. We can use a soft face wash for washing our face twice. Otherwise, for rest of the times , we can use plain water for washing our face. Does washing too much our face leads to dryness. I think washing the face 3-4 times in a day is enough. You can use facewash once or twice and rest with water. We should always use moisturising cream after washing the wash so that it doesn't get dry. What do you think????????????

I would never wash my face more than twice a day at the most. I use a cream cleanser, but wash with a mild soap now and then. What you should use depends on your skin type and your age.

It is better to wash face only twice a day. But you must also choose the right kind of soap for you. It is much better to select non oily soap and liquid soap for the face rather than a soap bar but again it depends if that soap bar says it is hypo allergenic, non comedogenic and non oily. Don't wash your face too much because it will get over dry. For me in the morning i apply sunblock with moisturizer on it. And at night, i apply some rejuvinating skin cream that helps nourish the skin from drying and keeps it supple soft.
