This is my standard now for the shower. I take a smaller bottle with me whenever I travel. It is the only product that doesn’t have perfume scents, even “natural” scents and oils that cause allergic itchiness reactions. This brand I use in shampoo as well. Finally found what works! I’m very thankful. It doesn’t take much to get the job done, so one bottle lasts a long time.

I started using this body wash on the recommendation of my dermatologist for my sensitive skin, and I’m so glad I did. It’s incredibly gentle and soothing, with a formula that doesn’t irritate or dry out my skin. After just a few uses, I noticed a significant improvement in the feel and appearance of my skin—less redness and no more tightness after showering. It has a light, pleasant scent that isn’t overpowering, and it lathers nicely without being too harsh. If you have sensitive skin or are dealing with a skin condition, this body wash is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!

The first thing you will notice about this product is the smaller bottle size. My thoughts were immediately, I bet I’m going to fly through this stuff. So I decided to test a theory, and use smaller amounts and not rinse the washcloth off. I did not end up using very much.
When using this product I applied dime sized amounts, and added small amounts of water and product to replace the water lost as I moved to different areas of cleaning. As a guy I wear Degree deodarant which is 48 hr antiperspirant. 48 hours is code for serious chemicals designed to get this to continue to adhere to your skin and work. You can tell it’s still on your skin cause you can smell it. Before using this soap I could smell the deodarant. The soap is largely devoid of smells that might confuse whether the deodrant is off or not. After washing with this I could not smell the deodarant at all anymore. It did not feel that the deodarant was still on my skin. I apply deodarant on thick usually, and would normally suds up a washcloth before washing my arm pit areas. This time I did not do that. I used the small amount of soap already on the washcloth and cleaned the area. It was effective.
What this product is, and what this product is not: This is an excellent cleanser, it cleans your skins well and is devoid of chemicals that will irritate your skin. However, it is also devoid of chemicals that will moisturize your skin. You might notice after washing with this that your skin feels clean, free of oil, and dry. The reason your skin might feel dry is largely around the no moisturizer in the product. This is a good thing because a great moisturizer for one person is perhaps a great rash for another person. This product allows you to fully clean your skin, and for you to decide what you will moisturize your skin with. Before this I was using Dove Green Tea and Cucumber body wash, and it has their version scents and moisturizers. If you use this soap you’ll probably need to apply a body moisturizer. The real gain here is you get to customize what product that will be and likely superior to the moisturizers and scents in an all-in-one body wash like Dove.
Applications for this soap: Even if this soap was not your daily go-to, I feel it still has applications in scenarios where skin is highly irritated and you want the least invasive product available.

Do you have incredibly sensitive skin? Are you allergic to almost all skin care products? Are you looking for a really mild, gentle line of hair/body products? Here’s one you might really find helpful! The Vanicream product line.
I recently found out I have a severe nickel allergy! I’m allergic to everything! I ended up having to go to the dermatologist numerous times to figure out why I was having all of these skin rashes. It was sensitivity to my hair/skincare products. My dermatologist recommended the Vanicream Product Line. I came home and purchased some of the items to see if that helped my skin. It did! My skin issues stopped! They cleared up! It’s been amazing!
Having said that, I’d be lying to say that I didn’t miss my old products! It’s strange to bathe with products that literally have no smell! This soap literally has NO smell! The liquid soap is best used on a loofah! It doesn’t lather very well otherwise. You can use it on your entire body. It does leave your skin feeling very soft! Most importantly, it’s incredibly gentle in the skin!
Another downside is the price! The Vanicream products aren’t cheap! Having said that, I’m so glad I made the switch! The skin rashes were getting out of control! I hated to spend as much money on shampoos/soaps/deodorants/etc., but it was costing me even more going to frequent doctors appointments!
Although I wasn’t thrilled about making the switch, I’m glad I did! I would recommend the Vanicream products for anyone that has sensitive skin/skin allergies! It will really surprise you! Check it out for yourself! I’ll bet you’ll be glad, in the long run, that you gave it a try!

Vanicream’s Gentle Body wash is a lifesaver to my sensitive skin. It’s free from harsh chemicals and fragrances, which means it cleanses without causing irritation or dryness. The formula is mild but effective, leaving my skin feeling clean and hydrated after every use. I also appreciate that it lathers well and rinses off easily. If you have sensitive skin or are just looking for a gentle body wash, this one is a fantastic choice.

This product is great for those with sensitive skin that can’t do fragrance. The soap quality is nice and I feel very clean after using it. A little goes a long way so the size is nice and the cost is fair.

Bought because I was getting boils and needed a body wash that was going to be gentle. I go to the gym a lot + it was summer so I was going to the beach, it was hot, etc. Since I’ve started using it, I have not had another boil (fingers crossed!). So I definitely recommend it for sensitive areas you don’t want to smother with a bunch of fragrances and harsh chemicals. It lathers nicely and leaves me feeling clean. It is probably not aggressive enough to use as a facial cleanser though. I tried and my face still felt a bit greasy. But it does its purpose as a body wash for sure.
