I have been using this stuff for years. The bottle has changed but not the stuff inside. This is the only body wash I have found that does not make me break out in pimples. Every time I try something else I start breaking out and sometimes develop cysts under my skin. I know sound dramatic, but it's true. Then when I switch back to St Ives Oatmeal and Shea butter body wash, the breakout and cysts goes away. It sounds weird but true. I hope you all never change the formula for this body wash.

I have very, very sensitive skin, so when I researched ingredients that would possibly help my skin, I found that oatmeal is one of the best! I decided to give St Ives a try due to it being an all natural product, and I have not used any other body wash since. My skin feels silky and smooth and no longer dry! I adore this product and highly recommend it!

A few years ago I was suffering from very dry itchy winter skin. With the winters here in WI I needed a bodywash that would heal, soothe and make my skin look it's best. I found in in St. Ive's Oatmeal Shea Body wash! Within a week of using it, I could not only feel the difference but others could see it and feel it too. And in the summer, it helps keep my skin from drying out thanks to the heat. It's my all season savior. I get compliments all the time on how soft my skin is. My secret is one I'm always willing to share... ST IVES! Thank you from the bottom of my feet (they look and feel great too)!

I have tried Olay, Dove, Johnson's, and even Cetaphil. But nothing ever came close to St. Ives Oatmeal and Shea Butter body wash. It leaves my skin feeling so soft and smooth, and each time i touch my skin, it feels like touching silk. It reminds me of baby's skin! I used to have scaly skin in my legs and I feel embarassed having to scratch those parts, but since I used this body wash, the itchiness was replaced by beautiful, young-looking skin, which contributes to a woman's well-being. The scent is so relaxing and something in its formulation makes my skin supple all day, even in a tropical country like the Philippines, and it works best with the Oatmeal and Shea Butter body lotion. It might be a little pricey by Philippine standards, but I don't care! This product is worth every cent. I love you St. Ives! Please don't pull this out from your line of skin care products. I'm gonna use this for life!

I bought a trial size of this about a month ago. I'm 61 with some medical problems and take water pills to help those problems. The water pills had my skin very dry, rough, and flaky. Since I've been using St. Ives Oatmeal Shea Body Wash, my skin is silky smooth and soft again! Thank you so much for making this product, and please do not change a thing about it!! I intend to go back to the store and find a full size one, and I will be using this for the rest of my life. Please don't stop making it or change anything about it. It's wonderful!

The new formula (cylinder bottle) is hot garbage. It lathers poorly, and foams like bubbles formed by flatulence in a hot tub. It's like they thought they could make the body of the soap shiny (the old formula was cream) and fool us with their shenanigans. Shame!

I LOVE this body wash. Just like it's sister body moisturizer, it calms and moisturizes my dry skin in the shower so it does not fell tight when I get out of the shower. It is a creamy, sudsy formula that is super gentle on the skin and smells soooooo good. I love that you have updated the product without sulfates and parabens! And I can barely tell the difference between the old formula and the new! I have sensitive skin and I usually have to steer clear of fragrance, but your products work great and are super gentle.

I normally use the old formula which was great, the smell was nice but much more subtle than the current formula. The main difference that I noticed with the new formula is that the Oats and Shea moved from #6 and #7 on the ingredient list to #13 and #14, even after fragrance. Because that's all this is, they made the formula shiny and more perfumed so more people would buy it I'm guessing but it no longer has anything that made me like it in the first place. When I used the old formula it made my skin feel nice after and I can't say the same for this formula, I used it a couple of times and had to give it away and I don't plan on buying anything from them unless it's the old formula which I seriously don't see happening, especially since everyone else seems to love this perfumed garbage. It's really disappointing since this was my go to.

I was disappointed to discover the change in scent. I don't know if they added more perfume or simply changed the perfume they were using in this product. I'm trying to decrease the number of unnecessary chemicals I expose my body to not increase them. Perfumes fit in the unnecessary category as far as I'm concerned. Next purchase will likely be a different brand after many years using St Ives

I am a swimmer, and the chlorine wrecks havock on my skin. This product makes my skin soft again! I was using Softsoap, and I still felt like I was cracking when I moved. I tried both the oatmeal and the citrus scent, and I've been much happier with them both!
