Best shower gel/body wash to really clean yourself?

Preferably suitable for someone with allergies/sensitive skin

I never feel super clean after a shower

I swear by Original Source Mint and Tea Tree shower gel with a body puff thing - but crucially (!) Pears soap on pits n bits- very mild never any dryness but a very clean feeling.

Do not use the aforementioned shower gel on your bits!

Pears or imperial leather soap, the only way to feel squeaky clean, flannel or sponge & a good lather of soap. Shower gel doesn't do the job like a bar of soap.

Brizzle very true!

My chronic dermatitis has improved massively since I swapped to soap and so has my bank balance!

Personally I don't really mind which shower gel or soap I use, but I really must use either some "loofah" gloves or the net thing that makes the soap all sudsy.

A nice bar of Pears soap does the job.

Definitely soap, it gets you much cleaner than gels. I like to use a bar of soap to get clean then a quick rinse with a little of my nice smelling shower oil or gel all over apart from armpits and bits after if I fancy using it. The Dr bronners almond scented soap bar smells really good, and nesti dante soaps are lovely too. Holland and Barrett do a good honey or royal jelly one but I can't remember what the name of the brand is.

Bar of soap or Dr Brommers here ( the almond one is devine)

Proper soap and a sponge and I'm squeaky clean
