Love this body shampoo. Light floral scent. 1 pump on a pouf sponge and your good to go! I love the fact that you can purchase refills. (Keeps more crud out of the landfills).

I love everything...EVERYTHING about DHC's Body Shampoo.

The convenient pump container is wonderful, plus there are refills for purchase.

It moisturizes and a little goes a long way.

What I LOVE about it is the faint Rose smell. If you do not like the smell off Roses, then this isn't for you.

Definitely will repurchase and keep refilling!

this is one of my favorite body washes. it's very mild and moisturizing. rinses clean and it has a nice soft fragrance. it's a reasonable price for a huge bottle. a definite repurchase. they also offer economical refills.

I am a repeat buyer. This is a bigger bottle than most body washes so the price is not unreasonable. It laters well and is very mild with a lovely apple blossom scent that lingers.

This is not bad, pretty good body wash, good deal for a huge bottle. It has flower smell, kinda reminds me of Japanese deodorant smell in a good way. Unlike American deodorant. After showering with this, the smells keep on lingering in my bathroom. My BF even tease the room and I smells of DHC. LOL. He even uses it as well. Great value for sharing bathroom. Cute bottle. Doesn't dry out skin. Nice.

Great body wash that does not dry your skin and comes in a convenient pump dispenser. Natural ingredients that leave your skin feeling clean and soft. Convenient packaging with a pump dispenser.

For $9 USD you get a large bottle, not expensive, but it is only worth buying if you are ordering other things from DHC anyway. Otherwise, paying the shipping just for this is not worth it (about an extra $5) since it does not add any benefits, like vitamins or exfoliation, to your skin. I am sure there are other non-drying washes out there that you can get without the hassle of mail order.

I happen to love the scent - unique and definitely very floral and quite strong, but I think people who don't wear perfume or don't like flowers would find it overwhelming. That said, I am a regular DHC customer so I would buy it again. For the stranger to DHC products, I would sum this up as way better than soap, but still just a body wash, so you may want to think twice before trying it out.

The best body cleanser I've ever used! Ever since adolescence, I've struggled with bad skin on my back, particularly on my shoulders. I was constantly itchy and always had lots of breakouts in this area.


In retrospect, the drugstore body washes and soaps I used at the time were what caused my skin complete distress. They were just simply very filmy, too dehydrating, and overly HARSH: they sucked the last drop of moisture out of my skin, made me terribly itchy, aggravated my acne, and even gave me eczema on my arms, legs, neck, and back. Even Dove and Johnson & Johnson's Baby Wash irritated my *truly* sensitive skin.


I thought all washes were like this until I came across DHC Mild Body Shampoo via the internet.


It contains no cheap, potentially HARMFUL detergents and so-called moisture binders, like Sodium Laureth Sulfate/Sodium Lauryl Sulfate/Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate and Glycerin (which ruthlessly pulls moisture from deep within the skin to temporarily moisturize the epidermis!).


Since incorporating this wash into my daily cleaning regimen, my skin feels and looks so much healthier. My back acne has cleared up and the overall skintone on my back shoulders and chest have improved tremendously.


The lather MBS produces is just right, kind of milky; it is not too heavy, perhaps due to its mild, very low-sulfate content. It cleans exceptionally well. It does not dry out skin or cause any form of irritation. In fact, my skin feels a lot smoother and softer since I started using this.


The fragrance could be more pleasant, though. It smells like dried roses concentrate or something. It could smell "fruity." The scent doesn't linger on your body, however, and leaves your bathroom smelling like potpourri.


The price is fair, considering all the product you get. One bottle lasts me a good month-and-a-half.


It is safe to use for the whole family. I used Baby Magic for about a year and it caused scales on my skin and did absolutely nothing for breakouts. If anything, it just upset my skin and drew out moisture. I can't believe they market that stuff to parents, way too harsh!


For calm, clean, clear, refreshed and truly balanced skin I urge you to buy DHC Mild Body Shampoo. It's simply the BEST!


Final rating: 5

I had to order this because DHC doesn't have samples of it -- which is so strange since they sample everything. I thought it would be too drying (everything's too drying for me) and too fragrant (scented stuff gives me a headache). And I was right. The smell isn't horrible -- it just lingers way too long and quite cloying. And it is a little drying. You get a lot for the money, but not worth the shipping charge.

I don't know why some one thinks its expensive, I feel it dirt cheap. maybe different product? I have is $8 in a huge bottle with a pump. It is foamy andd comforting to the skin. It's convenient if you have something the bottle can stand on at waist level. It's about the cheapest products from Dhc and I love it.

This is a little expensive, but it's a great body wash. I don't like moisturizing body washes since they leave a residue on my wash cloth, and I can just use a body lotion for that purpose. Anyway, this has a very nice, floral scent. Most importantly, it left my skin squeaky clean without stripping it dry. I haven't been able to find anything as good as this. The pump is also really convenient!

I wish they made a travel size of this! Very light flowery scent that does NOT cling. I don't like perfumes much, but this is enough to wake you up in the morning. Leaves my skin feeling soft and clean, but not tight. It doesn't foam up, so if you're looking for a foamy cleanser, this isn't it. But I like it, and I will certainly repurchase.

Blech! Smells mildly of rotting roses. I can't imagine this being popular anywhere. Gets 2 lippies because the formula itself is nice, it's cheap and comes in a big pump bottle. But I can not get over the scent, does not seem fresh at all!!

I love DHC body shampoo. My whole family uses it. It's only $8.00 for a huge container that lasts quite awhile in our house. It's a very gentle body wash, with a light pleasant scent.

This is about DHC Purified Charcoal shower gel, of which I got a sample. It looks like what you would get if you mixed campfire ashes with water. Other than it's appearance, it's a perfectly ok shower gel, but I wouldn't be able to get past the appearance -- I simply didn't want to put it on my skin.
