Why good cleansing and moisturising routines matter
Frequent washing — especially hands — can strip skin of natural oils, leading to dryness, irritation or tightness. Using gentle cleansers and replenishing with moisturisers helps maintain the skin barrier, reducing irritation and keeping skin soft.
Baylis & Harding handwashes and body products can sit alongside targeted creams from our body skincare and hand cream collections for more intensive hydration.
How to use Baylis & Harding products effectively
For best results:
- Apply handwash to wet hands, lather thoroughly for 20 seconds, then rinse.
- Use body washes with a cloth or loofah to enhance cleansing and exfoliation.
- Apply body lotion or cream to clean, dry skin after bathing.
- Reapply hand cream after repeated washing or using household cleaning products.
Tip: Pairing Baylis & Harding cleansing products with a moisturiser reduces dryness caused by cold weather and frequent washing.
When to take extra care
While Baylis & Harding products are suitable for most people, take extra care if:
- You have very sensitive or eczema-prone skin — consider milder fragrance-free skincare from our eczema section.
- You experience redness or itching after fragranced products.
- Your skin is broken, cracked or inflamed — in which case use soothing creams instead from body skincare.
