Avoid bodywashes that contain chemicals, additives, and harsh ingredients.

You should also avoid body-washes that advertise “foaming” action, as this will cause it to lather a lot when used.

Take a warm shower or bath when you use the bodywash so you can wet and clean your entire body.

Avoid using just your hands to apply the bodywash, as it is more difficult to clean your entire body with just your hands. Make sure you rinse out the washcloth regularly to prevent germs and bacteria from accumulating. You can also replace the washcloth once a week. Stay away from using a loofah to apply the bodywash, as it can harbor bacteria and germs. It can also increase your chances of developing acne. [6] X Research source

Make sure you use a moisturizer that contains hydrating ingredients, such as shea butter, coconut butter, and oats. Apply moisturizer in areas that tend to get very dry, such as your knees, your elbows, your feet, and your hands.

Your dermatologist may recommend a particular soap brand or a prescription bodywash to address your skin issues.
