Drugstore Body Wash

Having a bout with very dry skin. Philosophy shower gels don't seem to be helping. Does anyone have a recommendation for a drugstore brand that is really moisturizing?

I have many that I've been very happy with. I know that Dove has some nice ones that are moisturizing, and also look at Olay. I just had one of theirs that was very creamy. I also have a coconut water body wash by Dial, and also Suave's silkening body wash (gold container) with Moroccan oil. Just look for "moisturing" on the package & try that out. For the price of drugstore products, you can't lose.

Try the Oil of Olay ones if you want moisturizing.

I use Dove body washes and love them. I also use Aveeno, Caress, and and Oil of Olay body washes with very good results. I usually follow with a good moisturizing body lotion.

Here is a nice list of body washes that are good for the skin and don't have irritating fragrances. CeraVe is recommended by the derms I work for often so is the Eucerin and Aveeno. I have tried the Yes to Coconuts one and I like that is well. It isn't hard to find a body wash better than philosphys ones. No offense, just being truthful.

I no longer buy expensive body wash products. If you take baths, use a cheaper bubble bath with 2 cups of epsom salt. Scrub the problem areas with a combination of epsom, olive oil every couple of days.

Eucerin Skin Calming Body Wash fragrance free oil

Trust me on this one! At times my legs that are so dry and itchy that Ive actually had to get back in the shower and put jojoba on them while wet. No fragrance for sensitive skin. I can't post a link but the Amazon reviews say it all.

edited to add that Paula's choice gives it FIVE STARS and it's under $10....

I have very dry skin too. Some body washes make me itch.

I really like Aveeno active naturals skin relief fragrance free.

No itching and helps with dry skin but I still need a moisturizer. I think I paid about $7 for 18 oz at Walmart.

My husband has very dry skin and he now uses Dove Body Wash and it's completely cleared up and healed his itchy patches.

I buy lotion and body wash from Gilchrist & Soames. In January G&S has a 20% discount sale, and free shipping.

Dove moisturizing body wash works better for me than Olay. I follow up with one of Philosophy's body lotions, but use my husband's Gold Bond Ultimate Healing lotion with aloe on my legs & feet which tend to be dryer. We got this lotion a few years ago for his feet which tend to crack & be really rough. It works really well & healed his feet within 2 or 3 days. With regular use, he no longer has rough, cracked feet.

Oh, that's a hard one. I haven't found any drug store products that moisturize better than Philosophy's 3 in 1s. They work wonderfully for me.

Bliss shower gels are a close second. They're not drugstore, but they are not really pricy.

I never tried Aveeno until recently and I love it. Much better on my skin than Philosophy and more expensive brands.

Yes, that's a great product for dry skin.

Eucerin was recommended by my dermatologist. It is wonderful stuff. No perfumes in it.
