Advantages: keeps your skin soft, moisturised and clean

Disadvantages: sometimes the price can be a bit steep but look out for offers

Johnson's Softwash Body Wash is great....and I'm not a baby!

Background:
I was encouraged to use a Johnson's product for the shower/bath when I was diagnosed with cancer and undergoing chemotherapy. I'd always used any old shower gel that was on offer in the supermarkets, but now I had to be alot more mindful of the way my skin reacted to what I gave it! The bodywash was great and all through my treatment it kept my skin soft and clean and now that I'm in remission I still use it. I have since tried going back to the 'old' shower gels and bodywashes, but they just don't moisturise my skin the way this Johnson's product does.

The softwash:
The softwash comes in a good container, it doesn't get slippy when it gets wet and is easy to hold [almost rubbery feel to the container]. Only gripe is that it doesn't have a hook, so you can't hang it anywhere.

The softwash itself is pink in colour and feels and looks like a moisturiser. If just using your hands it stays pretty much in your hands and doesn't immediately slip out unlike other shower gels! I find it best using a sponge and it lathers up very well.

The fragance is very clean, almost like a light soap smell and not overpowering like other products. It stays with you throughout the day and even hours later and stuck in a hot office [!] you still feel clean and fresh.

I would strongly recommend this to anyone who wants to look after their skin without really having to think about it. I think I'll be using it for as long as they keep making it and hopefully when I have children, they'll be using it too!

Summary: I can't imagine using any other shower gel/bodywash again ever
