Ladies, What Kind Of Body Wash Do You Use?


Britt26

To all of you ladies here...Just wondering what kind of bar soap and body wash (the kind you would put on a lufa) you use?

I have used my beloved Oil of Olay body wash (which I read on here may have gluten in its perfume) for years and I'm going to have to make a switch! I also use Dial soap, but I haven't checked that out yet.

What would you recommend?--(for body washes, I need something very moisturizing)

Hi there,

I do not recommend any type of Oil of Olay products--they make me break-out, I have DH, every time I used them. One of the best products i have found is Neutrogena. They have everything, bodywash, soap, facewash, lotion, and I love the t-fal shampoo and conditioner when I have sores on my head--which seems to be always. i am still recuperating from non-diagnosis of 2 years. I do know that Neutrogena is available at my fav stor--Costco--also the body oil that you put on after showering really helps if you have any outbreaks under your arms--i love it and it is the only product I use, not extremely expensive either.

Good Luck!

I use homemade soap, courtesy of my mama. Face wash, i've also used neutrogena.

Dove bar soap is one of the few ones that helps keep my skin from getting dried out. I'd love less chemical soap, but the nice organic ones are a bit too pricey for me.

Personally I use Soft Soap, both in the shower and at my sinks. It's fine for me but then I don't have DH or sensitive skin. As far as I know, it's gluten free. At least I don't see any offending ingredients...it's really difficult to understand ingredients in body washes and cosmetics or skin care products.

I also use Suave shampoo and conditioner. I've used Tresseme in the past and don't seem to have a problem with it either. I may try Garnier when I run out...

Loreal Skin Genesis is my facial moisturizer...no problem with it either but it might not be OK for everyone.

Someone on here also suggested CeraVe Moisturizing Cream or lotion, which I found at my local Wal-Mart. I'm such a fanatic hand washer that I always battle chapped hands, especially in the winter. I ditched my favorite Bath & Body Works body lotion. (sniff, sniff)

Thank you all for the tips!! I am not looking forward to parting ways with my Oil of Olay but I know it must be done :D Luckily, I use Neutrogena on my face already, so I'll take a look at their other products. Thanks again!!

I am glad that other can use Neutrogena but I just recently bought some visabely even cleanser for sensative skin. I used it once and broken bad. So I continue to look for something for my face. I use caress bodywash with no problem at all.

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
