Best Body Wash
Why: This body wash is so hydrating, you can skip lotion completely. It lathers to a rich cream -- you can even use it for shaving -- and leaves behind just a hint of pretty fragrance (We prefer the coconut scent). At this price, it's almost too good to be real.
Honorable Mention: Victoria's Secret Ultrarich Cream Wash
Readers' Choice Winner: Dove Sensitive Skin Body Wash with NutriumMoisture
Why: "My dermatologist told me to try this, and I am so glad I listened. It moisturizes my skin so well. I use this every day, and it leaves my very dry skin moisturized and beautiful."
Honorable Mention: Aveeno Stress Relief Body Wash

Best Deodorant
Why: This deodorant fights smelliness and sweat all day -- even during tough workouts. The scent is barely there but pretty, and refreshes itself throughout the day.
Honorable Mention: Lavanila The Healthy Deodorant Sport Luxe
Readers' Choice Winner: Dove Advanced Care Go Fresh Cool Essentials Antiperspirant Deodorant
Why: "My absolute favorite. No white residue and it works extremely well. The scent isn't too strong, so it won't clash with anything else you put on in terms of fragrance."
Honorable Mention: Secret Clinical Strength Smooth Solid Deodorant

Best Fragrance
Why: This fragrance is feminine and unique -- it actually smells like lipstick in the most glamorous and beautiful way. It's hard to put a finger on the scent, which is powdery and floral, but that's what makes this perfume so special.
Honorable Mention: Tocca Isabel Eau de Parfum
Readers' Choice Winner: Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Eau de Parfum Spray
Why: "I love Coco Mademoiselle because it makes me feel feminine but powerful at the same time. It lasts up to six hours and has the most mesmerizing yet delicate smell."
Honorable Mention: Philosophy Pure Grace Spray Fragrance

Best Hair Removal
Why: This compact hair removal device is basically foolproof. It uses light technology to eliminate hair, and testers noticed a difference after just a few treatments. Hair comes back sparser and individual strands are finer. If forgetfulness is your primary obstacle when it comes to at-home devices, download the app -- it reminds you when you're due for a treatment.
Honorable Mention: Parissa Organic Wax
Readers' Choice Winner: Gillette Venus Embrace Razor
Why: "I've never gotten a closer, smoother shave from any other razor. The five blades make a marked difference, and the moisture ribbons keep me from getting tiny cuts and nicks."

Best Hand Lotion
Why: For plump, soft, moisturized hands, this cream is a revelation. It does all that and more without any sticky or greasy residue, and it has a subtle spa-like scent that's pretty without being too much. Even hand cream skeptics will be converted.
Honorable Mention: Marlowe No. 023 Hand Cream
Readers' Choice Winner: Eucerin Intensive Repair Extra-Enriched Hand Creme
Why: "A pea-sized amount covers both my hands, and the cream spreads evenly, moisturizes well, and sinks in to provide completely non-greasy comfort. The texture is rich and silky-soft, and my skin is so soft, hydrated and comfortable."
Honorable Mention: L'Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream
