No matter your skin type, there is an ideal soap for you. While many struggle with dry skin, oily skin can also be problematic, especially for men with fewer choices when buying natural soap.
Good old hormones, specifically testosterone, cause the differences between men's and women's skin. Men's skin is both thicker and oilier than women's.
So here are our recommendations for the best soap for oily skin.
