Dear Wai & all,

how about the body? Is it ok to use normal shower gel or soap to cleanse?
Thank you!

if your skin is not dry (and if you don't have acne on your body), using soap is okay, but if your skin is dry, you should not use soap (which dehdyrates the skin), and you should apply oil on your skin after bathing

I always get pimples (it is not acne if there are just a few … [Confused] ) on my back if I use soap. [Frown]

exactly; soap dehydrates the skin, which leads to a higher sebum production to counteract the dehydration
more sebum more readily leads to clogged pores
