Bar soaps that are low in pH are mild and high superfatted. The main reason for a superfatted soap is to produce a bar which is gentler on the skin of people who have sensitivities to high pH or who have conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis and other skin ailments. Soaps of this kind can be used as a body bar (bathing), hand washing, facial soap, shampoo and for shaving!
