Let me start off by saying I love bath products. I am always looking for something new. These products are great for my skin, but these may not be something that you need to add to your skin care regimen. I have dry and sensitive skin, but all of these can be used regardless of your skin type.
St. Ives Purifying Sea Salt Body Wash is hypoallergenic and paraben-free. It is an exfoliating scrub, but can be used daily due to the creamy lather that develops. The scrub contains natural sea salt and sea kelp extract. It is a 100% natural exfoliant. I was concerned initially that this would be drying, but my skin feels extremely soft and clean following the use of this product. I don't reach for this daily because I don't need to exfoliate daily, but if you were the type that likes to exfoliate often, this scrub would be gentle enough to do so. I purchased this at Rite Aid. It is 24 oz. and is $4.99
Ro's Argan Body Conditioner is a very expensive product. An employee at Lush pushed this product and I was leery of it from the start. It is $32.95 for 7.9 oz. This is more than I would normally want to spend, but after trying it in the store, I had to have it. This isn't exactly a body wash, it is a conditioner for your body. It contains cocoa butter, almond oil, Argan oil and the scent of rose petals. You should steer clear of this product if you do not like the fragrance of roses. It isn't overpowering, but it is the main fragrance. It will leave you with a great scent and you can skip the lotion or oil after using this product. My skin feels moisturized and soft. You can purchase this at your nearest Lush store or online.
I personally love the Moringa scent from The Body Shop. Many feel that the scent is too overpowering, but it is perfect for me. Let me start by saying I love this body wash in general. I have used numerous body washes from The Body Shop in varying fragrances. They all are amazing! Their body washes are soap-free. Soap-free body wash is milder and does not dry out skin. Soap in cleansers takes the moisture along with the dirt and debris. Soap free body wash still contains detergents which act similarly to soap, but it is less harsh on your skin. This shower gel typically costs $8.00 for 8.5 fl. oz. They have discounts running constantly. Their current promotion is:
2 for $14.00
3 for $18.00
4 for $20.00
You can mix and match any fragrances.
Rub Rub Rub is another great product you can find at your local Lush store. It is a softening and exfoliation sea salt scrub. It is very gentle and refreshing. A little of this goes a long way. It makes my skin incredibly soft and squeaky clean. I love the smell- a light mimosa blossom floral scent. It is natural and great for your skin! My only complaint is the packaging. Their tubs are normally great, but in this case it is a pain. You have to scoop some of the product out with your hand. I haven't spilled the product yet, but it is only a matter of time. A little of this product goes a long way. I have had this for quite some time and the tub looks completely full. If you can be patient with the packaging, I recommend purchasing this product.
$21.95 for 11.8 fl. oz.
Kiehl's is a great company. I love their Orange Flower & Lychee Skin Softening Body Lotion. It does have a strong floral scent- I love floral scents! I personally like this lotion the best, but they make other scents/types of lotions that have the same results- silky,soft skin. This lotion makes my skin feel nourished without the use of silicones. Silicone is normally included in products to keep in moisture and fill in lines. Silicone also keeps in sebum, dirt, and bacteria that may already be on the skin.
$26.00 for 8.4 oz.
Moringa Milk Body Lotion is a light lotion that is easily absorbed into the skin. This is great for all skin types. It makes my skin feel soft and smooth, but isn't greasy. This is great for summer months, but could be used year round as a daily moisturizer.
$12.00 for 8.5 fl. oz.
It is currently on-sale for 25% off- $9.00.
Once again, if you do not like floral scents, they have other options that will provide the same results.
Organix Moroccan Argan Oil Body Lotion is a great lotion as well. It absorbs quickly into the skin and leaves a subtle scent. It contains a dry oil blend made from naturally occurring nutrients. I love the smell and the moisturizing properties, but it does contain mineral oil. Mineral oil can cause pimples and blackheads because it seals the skin off from outside particles. I don't have issues with breakouts on my body, but if you do, you may want to steer clear from this lotion. I love using this on my legs and my arms.
$6.99 for 13 fl. oz. at Target
