One of the most important parts of my day and night time routine is body care.
I love this part of my beauty routine because I reconnect with my self after selflessly taking care of others all day.
In 2018 I tried everything from oils, scrubs, lotions, self-tanners, body sculpting creams, and even butt masks.
The criteria to make it to this list is simple, the product has to meet or exceed its claims.
These are the products that stand out for how well they work, and trust me I’m very picky when it comes to my beauty products.

Dove Deep Moisture Body Wash
I have been using Dove white beauty bar for over twenty-seven years.
My skin has only gotten more severely dry with age, which is why I seek more moisture in the products I use in the shower.
Dove Deep Moisture Body Wash is heaven sent, its gentle, sulfate-free and formulated with NutriumMoisture a technology trademarked by Dove to help your skin retain its natural moisture.
I would never do this on purpose, but if I had to I could skip a moisturizer after my shower when I use Dove’s Deep Moisture Body Wash.
For all the reasons mentioned above and the fact that all four of my girls can use it, Dove Deep Moisture Body Wash is the best body wash I used in 2018.

Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer
The sooner you hydrate your skin after a shower, the more moisture you will lock in, this is a theory that led to the creation of in-shower moisturizers.
However, the key to making a product like this functional in my opinion is how quickly it absorbs into the skin.
Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer is the best of its kind; the quick-absorbing formula is enriched with coconut oil leaving my skin feeling hydrated and never sticky.
