Maybe you have persistent acne that isn’t responding to your normal routine, or large pores that you want to minimize the appearance of. The products you choose need to effectively address the issues you’re most concerned about.

Shower Gel, Body Wash Or Bar Soap: Which Is Best For Your Skin?

In choosing the best cleansing product for your skin, it is very important to consider your "SKIN TYPE"

For oily skin type, shower gels are great! They are more suitable for oily skin as they wash away excess oil with the help of their clarifying properties.
You can use emollient shower gel, which contains skin soothing ingredients like Vitamin E to treat chapped skin conditions.

If you are someone with sensitive skin, you can surely benefit from body washes as they have lower pH level. Body washes usually have essential oils such as lemon, sandalwood or lavender, and moisturising agents such as panthenol (a chemical derived from pantothenic acid), vitamin B 5, and fatty acids that can cleanse without drying out your skin further.

If you have a dry skin, try using a body wash that contains glycolic acid as it can exfoliate dead skin cells.

Bar soaps are quite commonly used. But if you have sensitive skin, avoid using them. They are alkaline in nature compared to your skin’s pH.
If you have normal skin, you can try using some mild bar soap. Look for hypoallergenic products, unless your doctor has prescribed medicated soaps for any skin condition.
