As someone with *notoriously* picky skin, Ivory’s Gentle Body Wash surprised me. The first pump? Instant creamy lather—no wrestling with a slippery bar or needing half the bottle to feel clean. My shower smells like a crisp, just-washed towel (subtle but refreshing), and my kids haven’t complained once about 'weird soap smells.'

Here’s the kicker: my eczema-prone arms didn’t flare up. No parabens or dyes meant no post-shower itch-a-thon. Even my partner (who usually steals my fancy moisturizing washes) admitted it left his skin soft without that tight, squeaky-clean feeling.

Pro tip: The pump lid is a game-changer—no fumbling with caps during kid bath time chaos. And at 35 oz? This giant bottle outlasted two months of daily family showers. For the price, it’s like getting a gentle cleanse *and* a budget high-five.

Only gripe? It won’t replace your post-shower lotion if you’re Sahara-level dry. But for a no-nonsense, 'works-for-everyone' body wash? Ivory nailed it.
