Why is my skin so dirty?

Ok, yes I do use soap but that doesn't seem to cut it, I've tried various types of soaps and none seem to clean my skin all the way. The only thing that cleans my skin is the facial wash cloths for sensitive skin from olay but I always have to scrub hard to get the dirt off and it's gross. Whenever my skin is wet I can scratch it and get dirt in my nails, sometimes black but mostly brown. I was wondering if anyone knew something that can be more affective as a body wash b/c that would really help out. But my skin is dirty to the point where its visible and i smell but this problem really irritates me.

Those are symptoms of sensitive skin. Try using Dove Sensitive skin soap. And for a lotion use Aveeno. Don't use anything that's scented because it will cause your skin to react.





Also use a poof mesh loofa when you shower.

Reply:try useing Avene facial cleanser. it really feels like i get all the oil and dirt off my face whereas other cleaners i dont feel that way. then use a toner. a few times a week use a facial scrub to get off excess skin so your skin can breath and be cleaned easier. i like st ives aprocot scrib. dove body washes are great...baby bath wash laters amazingly...





OH also use a body scrub a couple times a week, and like the other girl said, a loofah really helps

Reply:to help open your pores and get all the dirt out, try boiling a pot of water. wait for it to steam. then with a towel over your head making a tent thing, put your face above the pot and have the steam open your pores. it works really well. do it for about 30 minutes. yes your face will sweat..that means its working! hope this helps
