Yes, based on survey data, a significant portion of men do wash their face with soap.
According to a survey, while many men do not regularly use dedicated face wash, a substantial number rely on traditional bar soap for cleansing their face. The survey specifically found that one-third of men surveyed said they wash their faces with bar soap.
This indicates that using bar soap on the face is a common practice among men, although it's not universal. The same survey also revealed that sixty-three percent of men do not regularly use face wash, and eleven percent have never even tried it, highlighting the varied approaches men take to facial cleansing.
While skincare professionals often recommend using a cleanser specifically designed for the face, particularly one suited to skin type (oily, dry, sensitive), the survey data clearly shows that many men opt for the simplicity and familiarity of bar soap.
Different cleansing habits among men include:
- Using dedicated face wash
- Using bar soap
- Using body wash on the face
- Simply rinsing with water
The choice often comes down to habit, perceived effectiveness, cost, and awareness of specialized facial cleansing products. The survey data confirms that using bar soap is a notable part of the male grooming landscape.
