    Default Soap or Shower Gel?

    When you jump in the shower do you use soap or shower gel? I find that soap makes my skin really dry so i use shower gel... but i have been using a nice soap that someone got me from Lush!!

    Shower gel.. anyday!!! Soap tends to dry my skin so much.. I even tried using Dove but that doesnt seem to work either. So I am back to using shower gels. What soap are u talking about?

    i use any kind of moisterizing shower gel that smells good. i am using a tea tree oil gel from walmart now. i wish i could lather up and stay that way for 24 hrs so the moisterizer would really sink into my skin.!!!

    I have used different soaps including Dove but i found that it didnt last that long. Mostly it was Johnsons baby soap, but that still made me dry so i have stayed with shower gels. I try all different sweet smelly shower gels and love them!!

    I prefer using soap whenever I go to shower. Germicidal soaps that are mild on the skin are the ones that relaxes my skin after use.

    I use both, but my favorite soaps is the coconut soap, then the coconut body wash.

    I like the body wash, it can be used as shampoo too

    Hi Natual Elements, so would you advise using a body wash for your hair? How can you tell which ones are good enough?

    Sorry for the delay. Yes body washes work and could be used as shampoo. All body washes with natural ingredients work well.

    I don't mean that body washes will replace shampoo, but for example if you go away for the weekend and don't want to bring everthing with you, then you could use a body wash as shampoo. Some of my customers do use them regularly as shampoo.

    i am using a different bath lotion now. it is from dial. it is yogurt and honey mixed. i actually can feel my skin moisterise and smell the scent way into the afteroon. it is kind of a vanilla smell. since i have to use medication on my skin for psoriasis i was impressed that this made me feel good and like i said the scent is very light and lasts most of the day.
