Everyone's skin is slightly acidic with a pH of about 5.5. This is a weak acid. Most soaps are Alkaline, with a pH of about 9-10. (round about 9.5). Some people find that using soap can dry out their skin. Nowadays, some manufacturers have developed alternatives with the pH of our skin. (5.5). But, most shower gels and shampoos are slightly acidic, and may not all match up with the pH of our skin. Again, with haircare products, they are also slightly acidic.
