Why is detergent in soaps bad for your skin?

322 views

I keep seeing all these ads for natural soaps that say they are good because they are detergent free, but never explain why detergent is bad. Did I miss something or is it just a marketing gimmick?

Mostly it’s a marketing gimmick. Over-soaping can dry out your skin and some people have allergies to consider but most people are perfectly fine with most soaps as long as they’re not going nuts with it and don’t have said allergies or particularly sensitive skin.
