All this talk about jojoba being a good moisturiser and it may help acne, i've bought a soap that contains jojoba oil and a natural antibacterial, i might give it ago as my skin is pretty dry and dull right now.

What's the name of the stuff and where did you buy it. I found some stuff that seems to be just like Pears soap but with Jojoba added: http://www.guestint.co.uk/store/Detail.aspx?pid=279

The soap is from a company called (Carex) but i washed with it today and my skin was quite dry afterwards, i'm not sure if this was because my skin was already dry before washing or that my skin needs time to adjust.?

I think that stuff is handwash so it's not surprising it's too drying. I would only ever use stuff that says on the label it's for the face.

Its not handwash, it says soap on the packet and it contains jojoba oil which i dont think they would put in if it was for the hands, so i'm sure its for the face/body, i think my face was probably dry after using it as it was already dry before using it.?

Also, i would say thats a bit of a stupid thing to go by, as most cleansers/soaps dont say there directly for the face even though you know they are, my Biore cleanser i've got here doesn't say (This Wash Is For The Face) but i know for sure it is though.
