Qualified ok: It's ok, but in the i wintertime too much bathing may cause drying of the skin. Bathing tends to wash natural body oils away.

Daily bathing: Daily bathing can be drying and hard on individuals prone to dermatitis. If an adult can get away with showering every other day, that is a generally a good thing, but not always practical if you get dirty in your job or sweat regularly. If children can keep bathing to a few times a week, that is good for the skin, but again, not always practical. If you must bathe daily, moisturize twice daily!
