Best Soap
Why: With a lovely smell, a good amount of lather and skin-softening ingredients, this soap definitely delivers.
Honorable Mention: Softsoap Fragrant Foaming Collection Hand Soap
Readers' Choice Winner: Dove White Beauty Bar

Best Sunscreen
Why: As the name "water-lotion" suggests, this sunscreen is very thin -- but in the best way. It absorbs instantly and feels like a lightweight body lotion.
Honorable Mention: Neutrogena CoolDry Sport Sunscreen Spray Broad Spectrum SPF 30
Readers' Choice Winner: Hawaiian Tropic Sheer Touch Ultra Radiance Lotion Sunscreen
Why: "This product is just about perfect. The shimmer is exactly how it should be -- subtle and beautiful, not glittery in the least. I would absolutely buy again. I am thrilled with this."
