A body shower is a shower that focuses on cleansing the body using body wash or soap. On the other hand, an everything shower is a trend that involves incorporating a full range of rituals before, during, and after a shower, including exfoliating, deep conditioning, shaving, and moisturizing. An everything shower is an extended shower that consists of several steps to leave you feeling super fresh afterwards. It may consist of exfoliating, shaving, applying a hair mask or oil, and a scalp scrub in addition to your usual shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. People often take everything showers on a day during the week where they have a little extra time to give themselves some TLC. Its basically an at-home spa day.

Regarding the ingredients or materials used in body wash or shower products, it is important to consider the toxicity of the ingredients to human health and the environment. Common fragrance ingredients, such as phthalates and synthetic musks, can be toxic to human health. Surfactants, a group of ingredients found in body washes to make them sudsy, can undergo a process called ethoxylation, which can result in the presence of contaminants such as 1,4 dioxane. Some surfactants, such as sodium laureth sulfate and sodium lauryl sulfate, can cause contact irritation in users and are also harmful to aquatic life. Therefore, it is recommended to choose body washes with the MADE SAFE seal, which ensures that the product is free of harmful ingredients and is safe for human health and the environment.
