This wash is made to soothe from all angles. First there's the formula made with calendula and oat, both enriching ingredients that help nourish irritated skin. Then there's the enveloping scent, which is equal parts ahh-inducing and clarifying. It comes from eucalyptus, an invigorating plant often used in spa settings, layered with patchouli and lavender essential oils to help instill a sense of calm.

De-Stress Body Wash, Indie Lee ($24)

Often, people assume that a gentle, hydrating wash means sans lather. That's where a Castile soap can come into play: The blend of saponified oils can whip up to a fluffy foam if you're one to enjoy that with your rinse while also being gentle and non-strippping.

Body Wash Blend, Milk & Honey ($28)

Loaded with hydrating ingredients, this wash is oh-so-decadent. In the formula, you'll find aloe vera (for a hydrating, soothing base that provides elegant slip), olive fruit extract (which contains fatty acids), as well as green and white tea (to help protect the skin with a plethora of antioxidant properties). It's then fragranced with cedar and florals. 

Organic Nourishing Body Wash, True Botanicals ($28)

A modern Ayurvedic skin care brand, this wash leans into herbs to tend to dry, irritated skin. A few of our favorites include, but are not limited to, amla (also called Indian gooseberry, an herb that has been shown to even help support collagen production), neem oil, and moringa leaf oil. 

Periya Body Cleanser, Abhati Suisse ($36)

Weleda is a brand known for its rich, thick creams (you may know them for their cult classic Skin Food, which is ultra-dense). It should come as no surprise that their washes are equally enriching, with replenishing sea buckthorn berries and sesame seed oil. 

Sea Buckthorn Hydrating Body Wash, Weleda ($10)

If a product is made safe for eczema-prone skin, rest assured that it is gentle, hydrating, and totally non-irritating. (As those with eczema know, the skin is extra sensitive to certain ingredients and dries out quickly.) The formula, rich with coconut-derived lipids, comes out as an oil and foams into mild suds. 

Eczema+ Foaming Oil Body Wash, SkinFix ($26)

This organic, all-purpose blend is extra concentrated, so a little bit goes a long way. Hero ingredients include aloe vera, coconut oil, and shea butter (all amazing for dry skin). If woodsy scents are your thing, you'll love the natural fragrance of juniper, cedar, ylang-ylang and maritime pine.

Mind and Body Wash, Bathing Culture ($35)

This all-natural wash calls upon seed oils for ultimate skin hydration. The coconut-derived emulsion gently cleanses while adding moisture back to the skin. This blend contains flower extracts that work to soothe skin and even tone.

Natural Body Wash, Corpus ($28)

If you're looking for an eco-friendly wash, this one is for you. This body wash is made with biodegradable cleansing agents and blended with hydrating ingredients like monoi oil and cupuaçu butter to ensure your skin is clean and hydrated. Bonus: it contains niacinamide which can help fade dark spots.

Santal Bloom Body Wash, Saltair ($12)

Though you may be familiar with the concept of drinking coconut water for extra hydration, you probably haven't seen it in a body wash—until now. Whipped up with aloe vera juice and sea kelp, this gel-like wash rinses clean without a foamy mess.

Hydrating Gel Body Wash With Aloe and Sea Kelp, Kopari ($18)

This one is an absolute steal. This rose water body wash not only smells divine but also contains star ingredient niacinamide which works wonders to fade dark spots and hydrate the skin. Not to mention it's just as eco-friendly as some of its competitors, as it has biodegradable ingredients and comes in recyclable packaging.

Rose Water & Niacinamide Nourish & Illuminate Body Wash, Love Beauty and Planet ($7.49)

This option comes with entirely unique ingredients to keep skin hydrated and supple—but totally effective ones too. There's the Atlantic kelp, which is rich with essential minerals to help nourish skin, and magnesium, which has impressive hydration properties. 

Atlantic Kelp & Magnesium Ocean Plastic Body Wash, REN ($29)

This hydrating cleanser brings a seriously delightful sensorial experience, too: The aromatic scent mixes bergamot, chamomile, and rose. You'll leave the shower with fresh, soft skin that smells delightful. 

Chamomile Bergamot Rosewood Body Cleanser, Grown Alchemist ($44)

We're big fans of shea butter around here, especially when it comes to dry skin. This ingredient has been used for centuries to treat dry, flaky skin. When working with another natural hydrator, aloe vera, this blend is a perfect dry skin remedy on a budget.
