What soap should I use for dry skin?

24-year-old woman3 years ago
Hello, every time I take a shower with a soap it stings and I scratch myself to the point of bleeding. Do you have any soaps that you can recommend to me, either in liquid or in bar form? I've already tried dove and other soaps and they don't seem to work.

Hello, thank you for your question!
There are several types of Dove soaps, I suggest the one that specifically mentions fragrance-free.
Otherwise, the Cetaphil brand also makes shower gels without irritants or fragrances, which seem to be well tolerated.
As for the shower, avoid water that is too cold or too hot. After leaving the shower, instead of rubbing the skin to dry, I recommend lightly patting the skin with the towel to leave a little moisture on the skin. Finally, within 5 minutes of going out, apply cream all over your skin to promote better hydration.
I hope this has helped you, and if you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
