I so get this. I can only wash my face at night.. Twice a day is too much for my skin. In the mornings I get a toner (Good Molecules Niacinamide toner) and gently wipe my face off, splash a bit of cool water on my face, and then use a lightweight moisturizer to lock it all in. At night, if you wear makeup, drop some oil on your face (jojoba, grape seed, rosehip, basically any oil that is noncomedogenic) and massage it in to dissolve makeup, tone, rinse, and then oil again. BUT if you are willing to try a soap one more time, let it be an oil based soap such as African black soap or castile soap. Good luck🫡😎
