Which is better – Body Wash or Shower Gel?

Depending on what you’re looking for, both body washes and shower gel focus on the same basics: cleaning the skin. However, body wash often offers additional  benefits, such as cleansing, hydrating, and moisturising the skin.

Can you use Body Wash on your face?

The body wash is not suitable for facial skin as it raises the skin’s PH levels and causes dryness. It’s better if you only use body wash for the body and not on your face.

Body wash for sensitive skin: products to avoid

If you have sensitive skin then it’s best to avoid allergens, so be careful when choosing products. Don’t pick a body wash that has harsh exfoliants, alcohol, and sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS).

Useful products to use with body wash

If you don’t like to apply the body wash with your hands, you can always invest in some luxurious bathing accessories such as a loofah, a natural sponge, or a soft cloth.
