Best body cleanser: Bottega Verde Olivo Silk- Effect Shower Gel, $13.90

1/9

Department/Specialty Store - Editor's Choice
Although it has a conventional shower gel texture, it lathers up into a nice dense
consistency, making skin feel deeply hydrated. The scent isn’t overwhelming so it’s ideal if you don’t want a strong fragrance.

Best body cleanser: The History of Whoo Whoospa Oil Shower, $56

2/9

Department/Specialty Store - Readers' Choice
Its oil-gel texture feels luxurious on skin, though the sweet perfumed scent might be too intense for some.

Best body cleanser: Moist Diane Botanical Body Soap, $10.90

3/9

Drugstore - Editor's Choice
A little goes a long way – just one small pump covers the whole body. It comes with a floral and lemony scent, and rinses off easily without leaving any stickiness.

Best body cleanser: QV Intensive with Ceramides Hydrating Body Wash, $36.80

4/9

Drugstore - Readers' Choice
It leaves skin with a veil of moisture, keeping it well hydrated after you come out of the shower. Some might find the scent overpowering, but the hydrating effect more than makes up for it.

Best body scrub: Kora Organics Body Exfoliator, $68 - Department/Specialty Story (Editor's Choice)

5/9

Department/Specialty Store - Editor's Choice
The gel-based scrub doesn’t feel harsh, even on sensitive skin, leaving it soft and smooth. the citrus scent is pleasant too. Bonus points for the press-top tube which made usage mess- and waste-free.

Best body scrub: Sabon Ginger Orange Body Scrub, $43 (Reader's Choice)

6/9

Department/Specialty Store - Readers' Choice
It has a zesty scent and rich texture that works well on drier parts of the body, like the heels and elbows. Best for those with very dry skin. And for those who appreciate a little eco-friendliness, the scrub comes in a glass jar.

Best body moisturiser: Bentley Organic Coconut Body Butter, $52 - Department/Specialty Story (Editor's Choice)

7/9

Department/Specialty Store - Editor's Choice
The fresh coconut fragrance will remind you of a beach holiday. The phytoceramides from the coconut butter have a long-lasting moisturising effect and absorb well into the skin, leaving it silky and smooth, not oily.

Best body moisturiser: Sabon Ginger Orange Body Lotion, $47 - Department/Specialty Story (Editor's Choice)

8/9

Department/Specialty Store - Editor's Choice
The lightweight texture absorbs easily and the moisturising effect lasts for hours – one layer more than suffices. The skin – even on drier elbows and the ankles – feels hydrated throughout the day. Bedsheet-proof, it also has a light gingery scent that we loved.

Best body moisturiser: Crabtree & Evelyn Evelyn Rose Silky Body Lotion, $37 (Reader's Choice)

9/9

Department/Specialty Store - Readers' Choice
The body lotion has a pretty rose scent and absorbs quickly into the skin. The vitamin-rich lotion is both hydrating and soothing, helping to moisturise skin, leaving it glowing and feeling incredibly smooth.
