Our picks for smelling fresh & masculine all day long
Sponsored
We wash our bodies pretty much every day, yet rarely question the effectiveness and overall quality of the products we’re using. In fact, most body washes on the market don’t address the specific needs of men’s skin. Most body washes are ineffective in thoroughly washing away dirt and dead skin cells from men’s skin. This is because men’s skin tends to be thicker and has a lower pH level than women’s skin. So, how can we smell fresh all day without breaking the bank?
Even as more and more skincare brands targeted to men emerge, it’s essential to use products that are scientifically-proven to improve skin. For men with sensitive skin, it’s especially important to consider ingredients when purchasing body wash, making sure to avoid irritating chemicals and harmful fragrances.
As men who prioritize smelling and looking our best, we want to make it easier for other men to do the same. We’ve tried the best men’s body washes on the market so that you don’t have to. We’ve ranked the top 5 men’s body washes based on natural ingredients, effectiveness, value, convenience with subscriptions, and customer satisfaction.

Disco’s Invigorating Body Wash is our all-around winner for best body wash. Disco’s unique formula blends natural, vegan ingredients to repair skin damage, soothe skin, and protect against free radicals. Its active ingredients – Aloe, Papaya, Horsetail, and Chamomile – work together for fresh-smelling skin all day long.
This Invigorating Body Wash is part of Disco’s clean and natural skincare line for men, which was formulated with the help of Dr. Eva Simmons O’Brien, M.D., a Yale-educated dermatologist and Assistant Professor at Johns Hopkins School of Dermatology. Disco was developed to give men a smoother, brighter, and clearer complexion, and offers a 20% discount on quarterly subscriptions, so men can purchase a 3-month supply and have their replenishment order arrive 3 months later.
Aside from tackling B.O. so that you smell fresh all day, the Invigorating Body Wash hydrates dry skin and contains antioxidant Chamomile, which protects against free radicals and prevents future wrinkles.

This Eucalyptus Mint Body Wash derived just for men cleans away daily grime without drying out your skin. They offer 8 different body wash scents, but the eucalyptus mint is our personal favorite.
Every Man Jack strives to use as many naturally derived, plant-based ingredients as possible, however it is not completely sulfate-free. We also found the consistency to be a little too thick.
Pros
Cons
We love this brand’s focus on ethical practices and use of all-natural ingredients. For the Eucalyptus Mint Body Wash, we found its consistency to be too thick and the scent slightly overpowering.

Jack Black’s All-Over Wash features a relaxing scent and can be used as a shampoo, body wash and face wash for an overall clean. Free of sulfates and parabens, this body wash is gentle on most skin types. However, it contains Cocamidopropyl Betaine, which can cause eye irritation, skin itching, burning or blistering. Some users reported flaky, itchy skin after using this product.
We liked the convenience of this multipurpose product and that they offer a travel-size bottle. At this time Jack Black doesn’t offer a subscription plan, so there is no discount on this product.
Pros
Cons
If you’re looking for a body wash that smells nice and cleans well, the Jack Black All Over Wash is a good option to consider. For those with sensitive skin, we recommend reviewing the ingredients list before purchasing to prevent any potential skin irritation.

Kiehl’s Body Fuel Wash is an all-in-one shampoo and body wash that removes excess oil, sweat and impurities from men’s skin and scalp. This product features menthol, zinc, and caffeine to purify and revive skin. We liked how this product felt on our skin, but the fragrance and packaging could use some work. The pump was difficult to use, and the bottle leaked before we got to use it.
Customers can receive 5% off every recurring order plus free shipping when you join their subscription plan. Since this product is pricey, the discount is a nice feature of the subscription.
Pros
Cons
Kiehl’s Body Fuel Wash is a solid option if you’re looking for the convenience of a 2-in-1 shampoo and body wash. However, we recommend trying out other products on this list if you want a body wash that is more moisturizing and comes in an easy-to-use bottle.

Method Men Sea + Surf Body Wash features a crisp, nautical scent that makes you feel like you’re right on the ocean. The body wash is packed with plant-based ingredients for a quick lather and clean rinse, without any lingering residue.
This body wash is free of parabens and phthalates, but we were bummed to discover that it contains the most common skin irritant, sodium lauryl sulfate, as well as partly synthetic ingredients for the fragrance. Method Men offers a subscription plan with 10% off your first order, although it’s unclear where to go on the site to subscribe.
Pros
Cons
We love the scent of this body wash and how well it lathers, but wish it was more a little gentle on sensitive skin. Although this is the least expensive body wash on the list, you might want to spend the extra money for a body wash with all-natural ingredients.
