Men's Body Care FAQs

How do you choose the best men's body wash or soap for you?

Look for an invigorating formula that will effectively cleanse away dirt and impurities and leave skin feeling refreshed. For efficient, head-to-toe cleansing, try an all-in-one body wash, such as our Body Fuel Wash for hair and body. If you want to also buff away dead skin while you cleanse, try our exfoliating bar soap Ultimate Man Body Scrub Soap which can leave skin feeling smooth and energised.

How do you choose the best men's body lotion for you?

If you prefer a weightless texture that easily absorbs, look for a lightweight body lotion to soften skin. If you have dry skin, you may prefer a richer moisturiser or cream or even a body butter, such as our Creme de Corps Soy Milk & Honey Whipped Body Butter to nourish skin with comforting moisture. You may also find you need a richer moisturiser in winter when skin is often drier but prefer a light weight formula in warmer weather.

When should men use body lotion?

To help keep skin hydrated, apply Body Moisturiser every time after you shower. Using a men's body moisturiser while your skin is still damp helps seal in moisture and keep skin feeling soft and smooth. Reapply throughout the day as needed or on especially dry areas.

How do you choose the best men's deodorant for you?

If you sweat excessively, look for a deodorant with antiperspirant, which helps prevent perspiration. Depending on your preference, choose a deodorant with a fresh, energising scent or go for an unscented deodorant, especially if you have any sensitivity to fragrances.

What is the difference between antiperspirant and deodorant?

Antiperspirants target excess perspiration by helping to reduce sweat. Deodorants do not target perspiration but do help prevent or mask body odour. If you are looking to target both excess sweat and odour, look for a men's antiperspirant and deodorant, such as our Body Fuel Antiperspirant & Deodorant.

What is cream deodorant?

Many deodorants are formulated with solid or liquid bases. A cream deodorant such as our Superbly Efficient Anti-Perspirant and Deodorant provides similar defence against odour with a different texture. In addition to protecting against odour, these formulas also leave the underarm area feeling soft and soothed.

How do unscented deodorants work?

Most deodorants work on two different levels. First, they help prevent odour caused by perspiration from forming in the first place. Secondly, they help mask the odour with a fragrance. Unscented deodorants simply perform the first step (helping to prevent the cause of body odour) without adding an additional scent.
