Oil cleanser or cleansing balm?

Question

I have extremely dry skin and I want to stop using regular face wash. If I don’t put lotion on after I shower my skin is tight and starts to peel. I don’t wear any make up except for mascara. Should I start an oil cleanser or cleansing balm? Or does it not matter? Also which one would you recommend?

Answer

Have you ever used Afican Black Soap? Do try it, it's great. Then use a Toner after you have cleansed and moisturize when your face is Damp. Oil cleansing is good. Perhaps try doing that in the evenings before bed. I advise to moisturize with an Oil rather than a Lotion but you decide what is best for your skin. All the best!

Answer

Just wash with straight water for sure!! I haven’t used any kind of soap on my face for years.
