Also your problems could be internal and could possible be your digestive system. Making sure you drink at least 2 litres of water a day and eat plenty of fruit and veges will help the body get rid of toxins and break down foods. Properly some times thats the bodys way of saying it needs help and sometimes whats going on inside shows on the outside.Soaps also are very alkiline so putting it on a alkiline skin will only make it dryer causing more weakness and sensitivity.

It contains: Sodium Myreth Sulfate + Lauryle Glucoside.... So shall I not use this? “Avoid plain soap or products that contain sodium lauryl sulfate or alcohol.”

Do you have any scientific evidence to support such a difference? We'd love to see it and be persuaded otherwise. Why is dissing plain soap a "really bad idea"?

Why is dissing plain soap a “really bad idea”?
