I would suspect that everyone washes their face at least once a day. Many of us take showers daily also. Perhaps, they do not suggest that you wash your face because they believe that most folks with common sense DO wash themselves on a daily basis. You touch things with your hands, not your face. So, you would logically wash your hands more than you would your face.
