Yes. I use Dove soap, unscented, on my face. It doesn't dry it out like face washes for acne do but because it's balanced it helps the oily and very dry skin...I have combination type.
Bar soap is a vague description. There are other bar soaps that do dry your skin out. Dial is one of them. Dove bar soap, Olay, Caress...those are the only good bar soaps.
If you do want to buy face wash, the only one that has worked on acne and not dried my skin out was Equate face wash (WalMart's brand). Clearsil and Clean & Clear were awful, dried me up and actually gave me more acne than before I started.

Use Aveeno bar soap if you have normal to dry skin. If you have oil skin then the bar will not help. If you use body soap on your face, you will dry out the skin. Your skin will feel really tight and you'll be unhappy with it.
Aveeno bar soap is always with the other face washes/scrubs and usually costs less than the others, but works really well.

If the bar soap is a face wash, then I think it won't cause your skin to be as sensitive compared to a bar soap for your body. Plus they do seem to be cheaper than a gel face wash.

I use face wash. I stopped using bar soap when I discovered all the bacteria that grows on it while it's siting on the bath tub wet. However, bar soap is cheaper and dove soap is the most natural one. So if you use bar soap buy dove.

Dove soap is the best thing i have discovered in 2015! my skin has been realy dry and even began to have very obvious crawfeet at the edges of my eyes and kept changing soaps. i discoverd Dove products and now use the cream bar soap for face the whole body and within a month i have no wrinkle on any part of my face and my skin is now soft and dewy and supple and i also use Dove lotion for dry skin(i am 52 years)

No bar soap should be used to clean your beautiful face!!! It is too drying, get a facial wash suitable for your face.

No way!!! Everyone should take good care of their face.Washing it with soap is definitely not it.You should buy a facial cleanser.The best thing to do would be to find out what your skin type is then choose a facial wash that suits your skin-and needs-best.

well it depends, is the bar soap specially formulated for use on the face...
I know neutrogena and the body shop, as well as clinique have products like that...and if thats what your talking about, keep the bar clean...as in in a closed soap dish
I wouldnt use irish spring though or anything in that catagory, talk about breakouts and really dry skin

Don't use bar soap. Use a cleanser, like Philosophy's Purity. You'll be amazed at the results.

Bar soap is very drying to the face, I recomend the following:
for dry/flakey skin: Olay intense moisture facial cleanser
for oily/acne prone: St.Ives Apricot scrub for oily/acne prone skin
for normal/combination skin: Nutrugena Daily pore cleanser for norlal/combination skin
