Dove non-scented , sensitive skin, hypoallergenic, beauty bar treat acne just as well as facial clensers?

I am thinking about switching to a soap (such as Dove hypoallergenic, unscented beauty bar) instead of a facial clenser such as Clearasil. What are your thoughts?Dove non-scented , sensitive skin, hypoallergenic, beauty bar treat acne just as well as facial clensers?
No, it doesn't. Dove's products are intended for dry skin, not acne-prone skin. They don't contain any ingredients that fight acne. In fact, the heavy moisturizer in Dove soaps that help those with dry skin would probably cause break-outs in someone with oily/acne-prone skin. Facial cleansers for acne contain specific ingredients like salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, or sulfur to treat break-outs and control oiliness.Dove non-scented , sensitive skin, hypoallergenic, beauty bar treat acne just as well as facial clensers?
Our derm office many times suggests Glyderm wash or MD Forte Level 1 cleanser. These can be found on the internet and you can read about them.





This was on one site, anyway, might be worth looking into.
