Staying clean is a full-time job, but if you scrub too hard with a super-harsh body wash, you might find that skin is dry, flaky and itchy. How can you remedy this issue without reverting to caveman hygiene? It’s easy – you need a body wash that does double-duty as a moisturizer.

Finding the right body wash for you might take a little experimenting. If your skin is in need of heavy-duty help, look for a body wash that also features a moisturizing element, like Dermalogica Conditioning Body Wash. Instead of scrubbing with a loofah or a washcloth, use your hands to soap up your body – it’s gentler and easier on your skin. Make sure to rinse thoroughly before you exit the shower.

Although it may seem counter-intuitive, a body scrub can actually help fight dry skin by encouraging cell turnover and revealing healthier, softer skin underneath your most difficult areas, like knees and elbows. Use an all-over exfoliating scrub like Dermalogica Exfoliating Body Scrub once a week to keep your skin refreshed and smooth.

Finally, don’t skip the moisturizer! Use an allergen-free, non-comedogenic lotion every time you step out of the shower to keep skin quenched.
