Soap? Body Wash?

[ewall]

What do you use? My skin is so dry and itchy today. I think I need to try something new.

I use Ivory or Dove bar soap, very boring. In the past, I used St. Ives body scrubs, Caress body wash, and various other soaps but found I actually prefer things with less fragrance.

I just use some Aveeno stuff. Doesn't help much. But my friend did get me a body scrub that works great! I will have to look at the brand but it's eucalyptus and smells amazing!

I'm no help. I coupon for it. So I get whatever is on sale.

I use Dove body wash, but I use coconut oil before getting out of the shower. That has helped tremendously with my dry skin.

This is a good idea. Do you just take a dollop on your fingers and rub it all over? 

I couldn't help but think of this TV commercial:

I don't. that is to say, I only use soap (I like Ivory but DH doesn't. we use Dove for sensitive skin) in my pits and lady bits. everywhere else is water only unless there is a reason to use soap (really hot day and I'm sweaty or something like that).

after my shower, I've been using Aveeno Eczema Therapy lotion on my arms and legs, per my sister's recommendation. she uses on her kids, who do have eczema. I don't have it, but it WORKS. my skin is so soft and smooth now. it is very thick, almost like an ointment, but rubs in very easily and does not feel greasy at all.

I have used coconut oil in the past as a daily moisturizer too, and it worked very well to moisturize my skin and get rid of my KP. but I hated the greasy feel. I still keep it in the bathroom in case my KP flares up.

I'm learning that I dislike fragrances on my skin. I mean, I like to smell good, but I would rather that my skin feels good.

I have no brand loyalty, generally I like deals and things that smell good

[Skyesthelimit1212]

I use what ever body wash is on sale, with the exception of ones that have vanilla smell. I hate the smell of fake vanilla. But I guess that neither here or there. LOL

Trader Joe's citrus body wash.

I leave the jar in the shower. Towards the end I run the jar under the water for 20 secs or so. It melts some, so after drying off in the shower I just use some of the liquid.

I use Bath and Body Works. I feel like its thicker and lasts longer. I get them on super sales & w coupons.
