Question from vlavianos
I am looking for a natural or organic bar soap that is super moisturizing. I have tried Dr. Bronners, Kiss My Face olive oil soap, shea butter soap, “unscented” Dove, all without success. They seem fine in the shower, but when I dry off I can see the crocodile skin on my legs, and my arms and torso get itchy. Thanks.

Readers, any suggestions?
I am on the same journey to find a gentle, natural non-drying soap, as many of these “natural” soaps are so drying. I also have eczema which can be greatly worsened by using the wrong products. So far, I have used some sample bars of a brand called Plantlife that seem creamy and more moisturizing than most.
and as for commercial soaps, I like to use Jergen’s bar soap although it is hard to find now. It is a bit drying, and does have the Jergen’s cherry almond fragrance, but it doesn’t flare up my eczema or cause me irritation.
