I might try that. I have to be careful with soap I use on my face. My skin is so sensitive that soaps like Ivory, Dove, etc. burn it like sunburn. Creams like Oil of Olay are a no-no, too. I tried Merle Norman soap once, and you should have seen me. I literally peeled. Jergens works fine and is inexpensive enough. I’m almost afraid to try anything else.

I never, ever use soap on my face. Just water and washcloth, also make my own skin oils. If you want something that cleans very well without any irritation, try making a paste with oatflour, works very well. Can be mixed with other stuff like milk, yogurt, powdered herbs of some kinds like turmeric, or rosewater. Makes the skin feel like baby skin.
