Body wash FAQ

1. Is body wash soap?

Not exactly! Soap is a lathering body product made from fats and alkalis that tend to have a higher pH level (9 or 10) than the skin’s optimal pH level (around five or six) likes, which can make soap a harsh ingredient for some users, leaving skin feeling tight and itchy. Body wash doesn’t use true soap ingredients but rather gentle surfactants to lather and cleanse the skin while also providing more moisture and hydration.

2. What’s the difference between shower gel vs. body wash?

The main difference between shower gel vs. body wash is the formulation. Body washes tend to have a creamier consistency best suited for dry or mature skin. Whereas shower gels have a thinner consistency and tend to be less hydrating than body washes. Shower gels can be beneficial for users with combination or oily skin.

3. Which body wash product is right for me?

The right body wash product for your skin will depend on your skin concerns, skin sensitivities and goals. For instance, since body washes tend to be more hydrating, they are better suited for dry skin, especially in winter months and dry climates. Acne-prone, oily or combination skin may find that body cleansers like shower gels and soaps for body help absorb excess oil and keep acne flare-ups at bay. Users who live in humid climates may also find body soaps and body gel cleansers to be more effective.

Aside from body cleanser type, there are other factors to consider, like the skin care ingredients used in the different body cleanser products. If you have sensitive skin, a soothing fragrance-free body wash may be the best option for you, like the Vanicream Gentle Body Wash.

For those with acne-prone skin, finding a body wash product formulated with purifying and exfoliating ingredients, like the Epionce Purifying Wash, can help calm inflammation, clear away debris and prevent future breakouts.

The best way to search for the best body wash product for your skin is to filter your search by preferences, key ingredient, skin concerns and/or product type.
