Avoid using soap bars as much as you can and opt for a body wash instead, but if you must use a soap then go for a natural one! Using a natural soap has a large number of skin benefits—they’re gentle, protect your skin and repair damage without stripping the skin of its essential nutrients. The Lever Ayush Purifying Turmeric Soap purifies the skin, cures skin infections and enhances skin glow.

If you can avoid soap bars then use a moisturising body wash such as the Lux Soft Touch Body Wash with French Rose and Almond Oil for extra benefits.
