Looking for the best organic shower gels to pamper and soothe your skin? We’ve rounded up options that smell amazing and are kind to both the planet and your skin.
Worried about micro-beads ruining the environment or harsh chemicals on your skin? Going organic with your shower gel has more benefits than just those. Check out our tested picks below for performance and fragrance.
One shower gel doubles as a moisturizer, nourishing and protecting delicate facial and hand skin. It’s rich in glycerin, contains minimal water, and is packed with active natural ingredients – no synthetic foaming agents or fragrances. It has a spicy, energizing scent.
Another shower gel works as an insect repellent, comes in eco-friendly sugar cane plastic, and is vegan. It can be used both as a body wash and shampoo, thanks to its organic bergamot and tea tree oil, which have antiseptic and anti-fungal qualities. Its smell is antiseptic but not overwhelming.
For a creamy body wash with a lively lemon scent, try this vegan-friendly option. It moisturizes all over and leaves your skin feeling fresh and uplifted.
A body wash with natural coconut and sugar extracts gently cleanses and maintains your skin’s pH balance. Organic aloe vera soothes and nourishes. It contains blood orange, cedarwood, and black pepper essential oils, offering a strong, natural scent while providing antibacterial benefits.
If you love floral scents, a soothing shower gel with rose, lavender, and orange scents might be for you. High in organic glycerin, it can also be used as a shampoo and is so pure that it’s considered safe to consume (though not recommended). It’s all-natural, organic, paraben-free, and vegan-friendly, perfect for sensitive skin.
For rose lovers, there’s a shower gel that makes you feel like you’re showering in a rose garden. It contains nurturing aloe vera and glycerine, making your skin clean and soft. It’s economical as you only need a small amount for a full lather.
Dr. Bronner’s 18-in-1 Pure-Castile Soaps can be used for a variety of cleaning tasks, from body and hair to household cleaning. They contain no synthetic preservatives, detergents, or foaming agents. The lavender scent is soothing, perfect for a pre-bedtime bath.
Bar soaps, while not gels, are even more sustainable as they have no plastic or glass packaging and generally last longer. One option is a moisturizing soap with coconut, jasmine, and sandalwood oils, free of artificial perfumes and preservatives, with compostable packaging.
Weleda’s Lavender Bar Soap is another option, packed with lavender essential oil and plant extracts for a calming and refreshing experience. It’s great for sensitive skin, leaving skin clean and refreshed.
