Alkaline soaps dry out and damage the skin by essentially breaking the skin apart, or changing the structure of its components. Alkaline soap has a reactive chemical structure that breaks the bonds holding fatty acid and protein molecules together. These fatty acid and protein molecules make up the cellular membrane and structure that protect and maintain the skin’s integrity. As these surface structures are denatured, the skin basically "breaks apart.”
