Looking for the best organic shower gels to pamper and soothe your skin? Healthista has compiled a list of options that smell fantastic and are kind to both your skin and the planet.
If you’re concerned about microbeads damaging the environment or harsh chemicals affecting your skin, switching to organic shower gel has multiple benefits. Our picks deliver performance and delightful fragrances, and we’ve tested them all.
One shower gel stands out as it works like a moisturizer, nourishing, soothing, and protecting the skin. It’s great for the delicate skin on your face and hands. According to the Cosmydor website, it’s full of glycerin and natural ingredients, without any synthetic foaming agents or fragrances. Its spicy, plant-based scent is invigorating and perfect for your morning routine.
Another versatile option doubles as an insect repellent. Packaged in eco-friendly sugar cane plastic, this vegan formula does double duty as a body wash and shampoo. The incognito website highlights its organic bergamot and tea tree oil, which have antiseptic and anti-fungal qualities. While it may smell slightly medicinal, it keeps dandruff and head lice at bay.
Weleda offers a creamy body wash that moisturizes and features essential lemon oil for a lively, refreshing scent. It’s a vegan-friendly product that leaves your skin feeling clean and rejuvenated, infusing your senses with its fresh, citrusy aroma.
Evolve Organic Beauty’s body wash includes natural coconut and sugar extracts that gently cleanse while maintaining the skin’s pH balance. Organic Aloe Vera soothes the skin, while blood orange, cedarwood, and black pepper essential oils enhance blood flow, provide an earthy scent, and offer antibacterial benefits.
Feelunique’s soothing shower gel combines rose, lavender, and orange scents. It contains organic glycerin, which is great for both skin and hair. Safe and pure enough to consume (though we don’t recommend it), it’s organic, paraben-free, and vegan. It’s gentle enough for sensitive skin, as our tester with eczema noted excellent results.
Urtekram’s shower gel, with nurturing aloe vera and glycerine, leaves the skin clean and soft. It has a lovely rose scent and lathers well, making it economical since you only need a small amount.
Dr. Bronner’s 18-in-1 Pure-Castile Soap is a multipurpose product suitable for almost any cleaning task, from skincare to household chores. It contains no synthetic preservatives, detergents, or foaming agents. The lavender scent is soothing, making it ideal for a relaxing pre-bedtime bath.
Bar soaps are an even more sustainable choice than bottled gels. They lack plastic or glass packaging and tend to last longer. One natural moisturizing soap combines coconut and jasmine with sandalwood oils, free of artificial perfumes and preservatives, and packaged in compostable paper. The aroma lingers on the skin, making it a delightful choice.
Weleda Lavender Bar Soap, made from vegetable oils and natural plant extracts, blends lavender oil with iris and viola extracts for a calming and cleansing experience. It worked wonders for our sensitive-skinned tester.
Enjoy your organic shower routine with any of these fantastic, eco-friendly options!
