Whatever our skin type may be, many of us fail always to choose a right soap for our skin, while we concentrate in other beauty cosmetics and remedies. The bath soaps play and important role in skincare as it’s the main skincare cosmetic which is used by all people. Everyone bath daily, so it’s important to choose a right soap for your skin type to maintain a good skin health, as well as beauty. If you have dry flaky skin, you should go for a moisturizing soap and if your skin is oily, you should choose an oil control soap. I’ll give some ideas for oily and dry skinned people about selecting your soap and face washes in summers and winters. Just an hint, you may or may not know, our skin loses excess moisture in winters so we should choose a soap which is rich and creamy to prevent dryness and peeling of skin.
Dry Skin : How your soap should be?
Dry skin is always dull because where there is no nourishment, there is no glow :( Summer is somewhat a comfortable season for dry skinned people, but they struggle a lot in winter due to dryness, moisture loss, flaky, peeling skin, few people even get itchy skin due to extremely dryness. To prevent this, selecting a moisturizing soap is just not enough, you should also use a nourishing body lotion. (I use Vaseline Healthy White. It nourishes my skin well in winters and also removes tan)

My Favorite Winter Face Wash
If you like to use face wash instead of soap for facial skin, you can go for Ponds Daily Face Wash. It’s a wonderful face wash which gently cleanses the skin and prevents dryness for long hours. I use it in winters and my skin feels very nourished and soft. Suitable for dry skinned people both in summers and winters.

Oily Skin: How your soap should be?
The soap you choose should not be creamy because oily skin needs one which controls oil secretion for long hours. Choose a herbal soap to prevent excess oil secretion. Oily skin attracts dirt easily and thus there is a lot of chance for getting infections and acne. Oily skin should be well cleansed everyday to prevent acne and other skin infections.

If you would like to use an oil control face wash, I strongly recommend Clean and Clear Foaming Face Wash for oily and normal to oily skins in summers as it controls oil secretion and cleanses well. It’s very cheap in cost and also prevents bacterial infection and acne.
