Hi all! Do any of you use your WEN cc's as a body wash? I have a few cc's that aren't great on my hair, but I like the scents, and am just wondering if they can be used instead of soap as a body wash. What do you all think? Thanks!

Sure they can! Just remember--they don't lather like soap.

Have been using the Lav and Fig cc's as body wash for about a year - really moisturize my skin.

That's how I am using up my SAM CC. Works great and leaves me very soft.

Yes, this is how I'm using up the remainder of my POM CC. Stepping out of the shower spray, I rub it directly on my body, then use a pair of those mesh shower gloves to massage it in and provide extra exfoliation. The CC (and the Wen body cleanser) are wonderful, my skin is extremely soft and well moisturized. It works better than any "lathering" body wash I've used.

Keep in mind, the CCs contain menthol (most body washes do not), so that might not be the best for more sensitive areas.......use common sense :-)

Great, thanks everyone! Can't wait to try this. What would you all suggest on how to apply? I use a wash cloth with my soap now, but since there is no lather, that might not work well anymore. I may try it your way, DoxieMomma - I'll have to look for shower gloves!

I use BGT all over daily & just add a pump or two to my wet wash cloth, smush it up & rub all over- enjoy!

I think I found them at Target or CVS/Walgreen's, they're inexpensive, nothing fancy. I don't use them every day, generally every other day. I find that it works best to apply the CC directly to my skin, then put a pump of CC into my wet gloves (or a wet washcloth) before massaging and cleansing. That way, more of the product goes directly on the skin and isn't "eaten" by a bath sponge or poof.
