Where To Buy Philosophy Body Wash

Commonly used as a means of cleansing, a body wash can do serious wonders for issues like eczema and dryness. Finding the suds needed for your skin type only requires a careful read of the label, Olga Bunimovich, MD, a board-certified dermatologist based in Pittsburgh, PA tells Allure. "Patients who have acne can use products with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide," she says. "Patients with eczema should avoid those same ingredients due to their irritating effect and instead look for moisturizing ingredients, such as natural oils, ceramides, and glycerin."

Melissa Piliang, MD, a board-certified dermatologist based in Cleveland, Ohio suggests steering clear of washes with fragrance, as these can potentially irritate the skin. "They do not enhance the cleansing ability of the body wash, so it is best to avoid fragrance," she explains.

While it's tempting to cover yourself in soap, Dr. Pilang says that it is possible to overdo it on the body wash. Overuse can lead to dry, irritated skin, especially during the winter months when skin is already stripped of moisture. "Taking hot showers/baths can magnify the problem as the hot water removes even more of the skin's natural oils," she explains. To prevent further overdrying of the skin, stick to once-daily showers with lukewarm water and use a moisturizer after cleansing, Dr. Bunimovich recommends. Also, pay special attention to washing the folds of your skin, as bacteria likes to hang out there. Don't attempt to use body wash as face wash, though, as it could clog pores and worsen acne.

We turned to the experts and sifted through a plethora of products from drugstore buys to deluxe splurges to find the formulas that will make even the most shower-averse want to lather up (because let's be honest, sometimes you'd rather just slap on a face mask in your day-old leggings).

You are getting one super-powered skin-care routine in this limited-edition box, and that routine starts in the shower with this body wash. It is a skin-softening niacinamide formula, loaded with vitamins C and E, that's also ridiculously chic looking sitting in your shower.

PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash is Dr. Bunimovich's go-to pick for patients with body acne. With benzoyl peroxide as its hero ingredient, you can rest easy knowing this wash will treat current pimples and prevent future ones. No need to worry about the wash drying out your skin either, thanks to moisturizing and exfoliating ingredients including glycerin and lactic acid.

Don't be fooled by its small size, as Plus's Body Wash has serious lather and cleansing power. Inside an outer, dissolvable shell is a sheet that transforms into soap with the addition of water. The fragrance-free gentle body wash is sensitive-skin-approved and comes packed with hydrating heroes like shea butter, almond oil, and aloe leaf.

Those with sensitive skin should look for body washes marked as such, Dr. Pliang says, as their consistency is generally more lotion-like. This is definitely the case with the unscented variation of Dove's Sensitive Skin Body Wash. Multiple types of soybean oil and glycerin moisturize skin, while lauric acid helps reduce and treat acne-prone skin.

We love Method's Body Simply Nourish body wash made with hydrating coconut, shea butter, and rice milk. (Yes, it smells just as yummy as it sounds.) Bonus points for the planet-friendly packaging made from recycled material.

Though initially founded as a skin care line, philosophy has since expanded into color cosmetics, fragrance and bath and body products. Each product includes an inspirational name, saying, or recipe on the packaging.

I have seen many presentations of Philosophy, but have never purchased any of their products. I love shower gels and body washes, but so far I have never heard a host explain what makes Philosophy worth the price. They say it smells good and feels creamy, but how is that different from something like Dove body wash?

I don't think so. There are several nice soaps and body washes out there that work nicely and are less expensive. Plus, the Philosophy bottles are so big that it's easy to tire of the scent long before the bottle can be used up.

However, I tried a lot of their other varieties and loathed most of them: Fresh Cream, Honey & Cream, and any of those summer or holiday scents, etc. I will never use these and others again! For me, I either despised the scent, and/or they did not wash clean at all -- they left a smooth, silky residue on my body which just made toweling off a dirty mess.

Bath & Body Works has an overwhelming amount of deliciously scented body washes, but one of their top sellers is the Aromatherapy Eucalyptus Spearmint, which is best known for its stress-relieving properties. The fresh herbal scent is reminiscent of a day at the spa.
