Never underestimate the power of a superb body wash: The best of them can leave your skin softer — and possibly healthier — after a couple of uses. Plus, it can make you smell like a treat and even thwart body blemishes. (Not to mention, body wash can double as a shaving cream in a pinch.) 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.

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."
