What the gurus are saying

Colloidal oatmeal does the heavy lifting here, hydrating and calming while the formula cleanses without stripping skin or leaving a filmy residue. Dermatologists praise how well it rinses off, which matters because trapped body wash in skin folds can trigger dryness and irritation. It's a standout pick for anyone with eczema, atopic dermatitis, or sensitive skin, though the formula works equally well for all skin types, and a little goes a long way, making it exceptionally affordable.

"I really like this colloidal oatmeal, hydrating, soothing, anti-inflammatory. It also helps with gently cleansing just from the colloidal oatmeal alone. It's $14.99, not on sale, but that's 28 cents per unit, which is cheaper than the rain bath."

Dermatologist Shops at Costco: What’s Worth It and What to Skip
"Really happy to see my favorite body wash from Aveeno here. For those of you who are in the market for a fragrance-free option, this is excellent. It has colloidal oatmeal, which is of course the ingredient signature to Aveeno and they actually spend a lot of time on the formulation of their colloidal oatmeal. I mean, it is their hero ingredient. And this is lovely. It rinses off the skin well."
Trying Isntree Chestnut AHA | Skincare Vlog
"Aveeno Skin Relief Body Wash is a really great body wash option if you deal with dry skin, eczema, honestly anyone I think would get along well with this. I've tried a lot of free body washes, for example Dove with their quarter moisturizing cream, but I find that Dove Body Wash is kind of filmy. I prefer this probably because I just love the sensory experience of having oats in skincare. I find it's very soothing with the avenanthramides and everything. Plus oats have this ability to hydrate as well as cleanse."

"Aveeno's body washes are really good. They have colloidal oats which are hydrating, soothing, and gentle but they cleanse while also helping to keep the skin moisturized. They're actually very soothing on dry, irritated, inflamed skin. The body wash in this particular scent does have fragrance, it's a very light scent and it's not overpowering. The thing I like about their body washes, which is key, is that they rinse off the skin well. Body wash getting trapped in the skin folds, trust me, it is a gateway to dry, irritated, itchy skin. You need a body wash that rinses off easily. This is it."
Dermatologist Shops Costco Skincare: What's Worth Buying?
"One of my all-time favorite body washes for all skin types, but something to consider if you have atopic dermatitis is the Aveeno Skin Relief Body Wash. Contains colloidal oatmeal. Not only does it help reduce water loss and hydrate the skin, but it's also a mild detergent to remove debris without stripping away skin's natural lipids. And it contains anti-inflammatory ceramides. You get three bottles, normally this is $14.99, but right now $11.99. That's $3 off, so roughly four dollars a bottle."

"Aveeno Skin Relief Body Wash is so affordable, a little goes a long way, and also great for kiddos. This one is fragrance-free and Aveeno is known for their oat technology which is soothing for those with eczema skin that's inflamed."
Approved
"If your concern is only dry skin, then you have to be specially careful about choosing the correct body wash. We want the wash to be effective, but it should not strip your skin of the essential oils, so that is why we like to choose a body wash which is very gentle on the skin. One recommendation is Aveeno Skin Relief Body Wash."
Approved
"I also like the Aveeno Skin Relief body lotion and wash. Now in the summertime that's when I start playing around with like all the fragrances and everything, but in a warmer month it's not extremely heavy where you feel like you're going to be sweating it off."
Approved
"It's got the same glycerin plus cocamidopropyl betaine, which is fine, but it's also got oats extract, which means it's anti-inflammatory, so this is good for eczema or for sensitive skin."
