Bar soap might seem like the most basic form of cleansing, but it can actually age your skin if you’re not choosing carefully. “The problem with bar soap is that it has a high pH of 9+, which is significantly higher than our acidic skin that ranges from 4.5 to 5.5,” Pollock says. “When our skin is out of this healthy range, it produces excess sebum in an attempt to try and restore its natural pH.” He recommends using a body wash or gel instead.
