| | | ultra sensitive skin I have really sensitive skin and can't use regular soap. I've been using Basis for a while, but one day I was staying over at someone's house and forgot my Basis. So I picked up an organic product by Jason - tea tree body wash. It's amazing. I can use it everywhere. Also tea tree oil is a natural antiseptic. It works out to be cheaper than the bars as well as it is liquid and lasts longer. It works really well on the face to reduce oil and prevent breakouts too. The only possible issue ( per my dermatologist) is that one might become allergic to it with frequent use. So I have been switching off between that and Basis and it is working well. I have the Body Shop tea tree cleanser foam and it isn;t as good as the Jason. I have bouts of exema (sp). And I haven't suffered an on my body, but still my hands due to allergies to gloves and dish soap. Does anyone know a hypoallergenic dish soap? I used a Burt's Bees body wash today and I am itching like crazy. Lesson learned.

| | | oh yeah. stop using soap altogether for a while so your skins natural oils can lubricate your skin. that's what i've always heard about stuff like that. |

| | | They say tea tree oil is not very good for you so try not to abuse it. I also suggest to avoid ANYTHING that contains sodium laureth sulfate.
