We shouldn't really have to say this, but your shower gel is NOT a face wash. Do not use one product for both jobs; it will not end well. Tristan Lee, skin expert and author of "Munch, Move, Moisturise!" told Refinery29 that you should never use shower gel as face wash, and also that a gentle, foaming face wash will do wonders for our skin if you have oily to combination skin.

Your shampoo could also be causing you to break out — especially if you've been shower-washing your face before rinsing your shampoo and conditioner.
Some shampoos can cause what's called pomade acne along your hairline, back and shoulders. Now, oil-based shampoos could be the culprit here, but simply changing your in shower routine will also help you avoid breakouts.
So if you're going to be insistent about washing your face in the shower, then be careful about how you do it and what you use.
