I have to disagree, I think it's a bit of a myth that bar soap is drying because surely a 100% natural bar of soap is less harsh then a liquid cleanser filled with chemicals, I agree that certain soaps would definately be more drying though but not all. I think a special cleanser may only be neccesary to remove make up, but I'm sure some people have said using Dove alon works.
