I use Dove soap, which is the best soap for itchy skin, when my face is itchy.

If your face feels itchy, it?s better to switch from regular soap to a very gentle, soap-free cleanser like Cetaphil or Sebamed, which are specially made for sensitive and dry skin. These help clean without stripping natural oils or causing irritation. Also, use lukewarm water, avoid scrubbing, and apply a good moisturizer after washing to reduce itching.
Dove moisturizing soap is what I'm using. However, even after drying with cloth, a little film remains. I have dry skin. What other option is there?

The moisturizing ingredients in Dove soap are what give you that film feeling after using it, but if you find it uncomfortable, you can use a gentle or soap-free body wash. Dermatologists frequently advise moderate, non-foaming cleansers containing moisturizing components like glycerin or ceramides because soap bars can occasionally leave a residue and still dry sensitive skin.

Yes, you can use Dove face soap if you have dry skin, as it is generally mild and moisturizing. However, wash with lukewarm water and follow it with a good moisturizer to prevent further dryness, and avoid over-washing your face.
