I wouldn’t go as far as saying you should never wash your face in the shower. The problem is, most people enjoy hot showers (understandably).
Not only alkaline tap water inevitably changes/disrupts the pH of your skin, making it dry…using very hot water can damage your skin barrier!
For this reason I would recommend you to reduce the time you spend in the shower and use tepid water. Tepid water is ideal for washing your face in general; cold water isn’t skin barrier friendly either.
That said, I don’t see a problem with washing your face in the shower. If you wash your face in the shower you can proceed to apply your skincare products once you’re out, and avoid your skin getting too dehydrated.
You might think the fact that you took a shower means your face is clean already, and that it would be overkill to use a cleanser.
However the truth is that water alone is not enough to remove dirt; you need to use a face wash if you want to make sure your face is clean. Luckily, cleansers are inexpensive products. I wouldn’t worry about the cost.
