What are some lovely smelling but affordable body washes?

[Teadrinker11]

I need to stock up on some shower gels but I need to stay cheap - I've spent too much last year on luxurious and expensive body washes. What are some of your favourites but at a more cheap, affordable price?

Buy nice soap instead. Lasts a lot longer

I really like the Faith in Nature lavender and geranium one, which is about £5 in Boots, or cheaper on Amazon. It comes in lots of flavours if you don’t fancy that one. I used to love Korres shower gel but it is harder to get hold of these days.

Beauty Pie, Super Healthy skin body wash is under a tenner and comes in a massive bottle.

For cheap as chips try Nivea. Their pink clay body wash is really nice. Always a few different Nivea ones in Home Bargains for about a quid.

Aldi do gorgeous dupes of the White Company shower gels - Paradise is my morning treat.

I love the imperial leather sweets range.

Pears liquid soap body was it cone in a big pump bottle for 3 pounds I get it in Sainsburys lasts a while, not great is the non eco friendly bottle though but I think they may do refills

& Other Stories do lovely ones. My fave is Arabesque Wood. I think it’s £5.

Second the nivea clay one it has sage in it and smells divine cheap too!!

Seconded. Love this smell.

I'd go for a really nice bar soap instead. Faith In Nature do some lovely ones which are eco friendly and cruelty free. About £4 I think. Last ages.

Nesti Dante large soaps smell gorgeous, don't dry my skin and last about 6 weeks with daily use in the shower. So great value for about £5.

Another vote for Nivea Clay Fresh. The ginger and basil one smells lovely.

Love the Badedas shower gel - it's often on offer for £2.

Soap. It’s much better for the environment and more cost effective.

Imperial Leather shower gels - the Fijian Waterfall and Moroccan Sunset ones smell really lovely. And they're only £1.

Radox Donut Mind I I do - smells of vanilla/chocolate-ish - find it in Superdrug.

Sanctuary shower oil/gel, Aldi or Lidl do a mango one which is very similar to the Original Source one.

Body Shop refillable- environmentally friendly too. My favourite is pink grapefruit

i really like the radox pink grapefruit one. Have tried loads of grapefruit shower washes. Radox v reasonably priced and smells very grapefruity.

Yes to Radox pink grapefruit, and also, use the Waitrose Basil and Lime handwash as showergel. It's gorgeous.

Faith in nature sage. Selling in b and M for a pound!

Got to tkmaxx. Loads of lovely smelling and affordable bath stuff

‘Got to tkmaxx. Loads of lovely smelling and affordable bath stuff.’

Definitely do this OP. Some really fancy ones for under a tenner sometimes. Also check out the giant bars of triple milled French and Italian soaps for £2 to £5. Heaven.

You can also buy this in 5litre containers. It's a bigger initial outlay (obviously!) but lasts for ages and obviously better for the environment. I hope to take our empty one to the local refill shop to be refilled (with another brand probably, as I don't think they stock FiN) - so even less plastic.

Savon de Marseille soaps are lovely. They last ages, smell gorgeous and don't dry out your skin. Available online or TK Maxx often have them.
