Why are body cleansing and exfoliation important for the skin?
Every day, the skin on the body is exposed to sweat, pollution, friction from clothing, as well as cold, wind and heat. All of this can settle on the skin and affect its balance. That is why a gentle and effective body cleanser is an essential first step in body care. A good cleanser removes dirt and impurities while helping to maintain the skin barrier, so the skin can retain moisture and remain soft and supple.
Exfoliation is just as important. By removing dead skin cells, you help the skin renew itself, bring out its glow and make it more receptive to lotion, oil, balm and other body care products. The result is a more even skin texture and a feeling of freshness that begins already in the shower. Good body care starts where water, cleansing and rituals meet.
Body soap or shower gel – what is the difference?
Shower Power Body Soap and Hand and Body Soap from Rudolph Care are both gentle, certified body cleansers developed for all skin types, including sensitive skin. They are based on natural ingredients that cleanse without drying the skin, combined with reliable and stable laboratory-based chemistry. They differ mainly in packaging and use. Shower Power Body Soap is ideal for use in the shower and to bring along in a gym bag, while Hand and Body Soap, with its generous 500 ml size, is better suited for stationary use at the sink and in the shower.
Both soaps are formulated with moisture-retaining aloe vera, wheat protein and açai, which help strengthen the skin barrier.
Shower gel and body soap are terms many people search for and recognise from everyday use. In practice, they refer to the same category at Rudolph Care: a cleansing soap for the body and hands.
What does a body scrub do, and why is it important?
A body scrub is essential if you want smoother, softer and more vibrant skin. It removes dead skin cells from the surface of the skin and helps prevent dryness and rough areas.
When dead skin cells are removed, the skin is ready to absorb the caring ingredients from your lotion, oil and or balm. Exfoliation also stimulates the skin’s natural renewal process and leaves the skin with a beautiful, vital glow. A scrub is also the best preparatory step before self-tan, as it creates a more even surface that is ready to have self-tanner applied.
Rudolph Care’s Açai Body Scrub is formulated with nourishing oils from rapeseed and olive, enriched with natural, rounded exfoliating grains from apricot kernels. The high level of oils helps nourish the skin and prevent dryness, while the gentle grains exfoliate effectively.
Find the right body care for you
Daily cleansing
For everyday use in the shower, Hand and Body Soap and Shower Power are created to give the skin a gentle, comfortable and sensorial experience. They cleanse effectively, create a soft lather and leave the skin clean without disrupting its moisture balance. The products are suitable for the whole family and for all skin types.
Focus on caring ingredients for sensitive and dry skin
If your skin easily becomes dry or feels delicate, it is beneficial to choose body care that helps the skin retain moisture. In Rudolph Care’s body cleansers you will find moisture-preserving ingredients that work in harmony with the skin. The Nordic Swan Ecolabel and Ecocert COSMOS Organic certifications also ensure that both skin and environment are treated with care.
For practical use: travelsizes
Travelsizes are ideal for trips, hand luggage, gym bags or festivals. You get the same quality and the same caring ingredients, simply in a more practical format. This allows you to maintain your body care routine wherever you are.
How to use body soap and scrub correctly
Use a body soap daily in the shower. Apply the product to your hands, massage it onto the body, let the soft lather cleanse the skin and rinse thoroughly.
Use a body scrub one to two times a week on damp skin. Massage it gently in circular motions, especially on areas with dryness or uneven texture, then rinse off.
When you step out of the shower with slightly damp skin, we always recommend following up immediately with a layer of nourishing care. The light moisture left on the skin after bathing helps your body care absorb more deeply. Choose Açai Body Lotion if you prefer a light and nourishing lotion. Choose Body Oil if you love a silky body oil that melts into the skin. Or fall in love with Açai Body Balm, an ultra-rich and deeply nourishing care for the entire body.
