Body Care After a Shower: Keep Skin Comfortable

Use warm rather than very hot water, keep showers comfortable in length, and choose a mild cleanser where needed. Pat skin dry instead of rubbing vigorously. Applying moisturiser soon after bathing can help reduce that dry, tight feeling by supporting the skin’s moisture barrier.

You do not need to use fragranced products over your entire body. If fragrance irritates your skin, choose an unfragranced option and test new products cautiously. Persistent dryness, cracking, or itching may need advice from a pharmacist or clinician.
