A member asked:
Can a bar soap for facewash b causing my whiteheads. i heard it creates bacteria over time use, i use neutrogena original formula transparent bar soap?

Probably not: A dirty washcloth might be a more likely source of bacteria than a bar of soap. And if the soap contains benzoyl peroxide then it is pretty much not going to have bacteria of any significance.
