Johnson's Softwash 2-in-1 Shower and Shave 24 Hour Moisturizing Wash
Average member rating
The innovative aspect of this powder-scented wash (it doubles as a shaving foam) gets high marks. Though you don't get the super-close results of a traditional shave gel, it does make for smoother legs and fewer scrapes than regular old body wash. (Hint: If you use it with a shower pouf, you get a richer lather). But as for the claim that it leaves skin moisturized for 24 hours, we beg to differ -- at just two hours, the cries for a moisturizer could no longer be ignored.

Soft, Shiny and Stress-Free

I never appreciated this shampoo as a little kid the way I do at thirty! About two years ago, I discovered Johnson's Baby Shampoo in the Natural Lavender variety. I picked up a bottle and gave it try--wow! The lavender scent is so calming, and while the shampoo doesn't work any miracles, it does its job. Just as it makes children's hair clean and shiny, it does the same for us. This is the kind of shampoo you want to use on the weekend or at night, when you have time to truly savor the fragrance and enjoy the shampoo's purity and simplicity. December 2, 2007, 2:53 am

Makes a great face wash
by Kelaia (4 reviews)I use this to clean my combination skin. It is very gentle, does not cause any breakouts or irritation and rinses clean. It leaves my face feeling wonderfully soft and clean! I used to use Paula's Choice cleanser which was around $18 for 16 fl. oz I think, but this baby wash is just $5 for a huge amount! (It is available in... December 7, 2007, 7:16 pm

I used to use Paula's Choice cleanser which was around $18 for 16 fl. oz I think, but this baby wash is just $5 for a huge amount! (It is available in 2 sizes, but I purchase the largest one because I know I love it). December 7, 2007, 7:16 pm

This is the best product for little ones.
by Bertana (3 reviews)I used this on my son when he was an infant until he was almost 3 years old. I loved how gentle it was on his skin. It didn't leave an oily film and left a gentle, fresh scent. It was also great for his hair. Again it didn't leave a film and made his hair shine. Because it can be used all over, I didn't have to have 2 or 3... October 26, 2007, 6:48 am

It was also great for his hair. Again it didn't leave a film and made his hair shine. Because it can be used all over, I didn't have to have 2 or 3 products. I highly recommend this product to anyone with a baby. October 26, 2007, 6:48 am

Perfect for thin straight hair

I used to cry and throw a fit whenever my mother would try to comb my long hair after a shampoo until she found this product. When I was a little girl I couldn't wash my hair with anything else. It had to be this detangling shampoo. It was the only shampoo my mom could use and comb my hair out. It made a huge difference in my bath time experience.
And now it's the only thing I use on my nieces when they come over to stay.
This is a wonderful product. October 25, 2007, 10:18 am

Good one
by lsuew1978 (15 reviews)Anytime you can find a product that serves more than one purpose you are doing great.

All in one wash
by omccoy (18 reviews)I like this one, it gives a soft clean smell after taking a bath in it, and you can also shave your legs which gives a good exfoliating feel to it, and its soft and smooth afterwards. Good price, and last awhile. Would buy again. omccoy April 26, 2008, 2:09 am1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Nourishing
by Cathy831 (7 reviews)The vitamins A & E, shea butter and green tea help to nourish your skin. It leaves your skin feeling clean and fresh smelling. Johnson products make me think about my children when they were babies and this product makes your skin feel that soft. The unique blends help to replenish your skin while gently cleaning it.

Great double duty product
by atsland (15 reviews)This stuff is great! It's really rich and creamy so it's awesome to shave with but it's also is a great body wash. As far as the moisturizing claim, I always apply lotion after a shower so I don't know how well this product really moisturizes on its own.

This stuff is GREAT!!!
by aleesia76 (9 reviews)I love this stuff. I have really dry skin in the winter. This stuff is so moisturizing, and it lathers nicely for shaving. It's nice to combine a body wash and a shave gel all in one, saving you time and the hassle of having to use a half a dozen products. Well worth the price for the combined body wash/shave gel.
