At any age, soap is a key part of our skincare routine, but choosing the right soap for your skin type can seem confusing. With so many types and brands of soap on the market, it can be difficult to find the right one for your skin.
Generally, dermatologists prefer superfatted or soap-free soaps for cleaning the face and body. Superfatted soaps have the advantage of cleaning and moisturizing the skin.
To choose the right soap you need to know your skin type.
You have oily skin
Do you have oily, acne-prone skin? Oily skin is also associated with enlarged pores , thick skin and uneven skin texture. It also promotes the appearance of imperfections (blackheads, pimples, etc.)
Detoxifying the skin helps fight acne because it helps remove impurities and toxins from the skin , which reduces inflammation and clogged pores.
At On Behalf, we have designed a purifying solid soap. Formulated with the best rebalancing ingredients: Organic Tea Tree, Organic Jojoba Oil, Organic Nettle Powder, Mineral Green Clay! The Pure Detox Surgras Cleansing Care on a rope is 100% natural and certified organic.

The Pure Detox Cleansing Care is also ultra nourishing thanks to the organic olive oil, organic coconut oil and organic shea butter it contains. Thus, it does not dry out the skin and leaves it perfectly nourished!
You have dry skin
If your skin is dry, it is necessary to provide it with lipids, that is to say fat, because it does not secrete enough fat to form a protective skin barrier and retain the water necessary for its hydration.
You need to restore your hydrolipidic film, that is, the film that protects your skin from external aggressions. To do this, choose a superfatted soap based on shea butter, vegetable oils
Your skin lacks oil ! A gentle wash with a superfatted soap is essential! We recommend using our Superfatted Radiance Cleansing Care. It is rich in natural and organic ingredients, of quality and quantity, such as organic carrot oil, organic apricot oil, organic olive oil, organic coconut oil, organic shea butter, organic avocado oil... it nourishes the skin deeply and lastingly.
It is best to clean with cold saponified soap because the vegetable oils are not heated, which allows the preservation of one by vegetable glycerins. At On Behalf, all our soaps are cold saponified!
The skin is therefore less attacked.
To repair the skin barrier after cleansing, we recommend using daily rehydrating body and face care products in the form of balms or oils that are kind to the skin. Ideally, they should be natural and certified organic.
You have normal skin
Is your skin soft and your texture regular? You are one of the lucky ones to have normal skin that can withstand the various natural aggressions. But be careful, just because nature has spoiled you doesn't mean you don't have to take care of your skin!
As for the soap, you can use whatever you want but remember to moisturize it. A superfatted soap with oils is perfectly suitable, such as shea butter, olive oil, coconut oil, etc. This is good because all these ingredients are present in our On Behalf Superfatted Cleansing Care.
