HG body wash. Needed a body wash that would gently exfoliate & cleanses with stripping & irritating my skin, especially since I'm on accutane and have occasional eczema flair ups, and this did the job. Leaves my skin feeling both clean & moisturized, something I had always found difficulty finding in a drug store body wash.
