Yes, it is possible to use the soap alongside leave-on exfoliating acids, retinoids, or strong anti-blemish products, and many people do. The key is to avoid irritation from overlapping exfoliation. The bar already contains salicylic acid, so if your leave-on product also contains an acid or retinoid, you may be applying two exfoliating ingredients to the same skin. The result can be dryness, redness, or a weakened skin barrier.
Practical ways to combine them are: use the bar only on the body and your leave-on treatment only on the face; use them on different days; or use the bar in the morning and your treatment in the evening. There is no single right pattern, but your skin's response should guide you. If your skin starts to sting, feel tight or look flaky, reduce the frequency of one of the products.
Also avoid the eye area when using the bar. Stop use if irritation appears. As with any cosmetic, consult a specialist before use with chronic conditions, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or medication.
