A shower cream is a liquid product used for cleaning the body during showers, similar to shower gel or body wash. However, unlike shower gel, shower cream contains hydrating and moisturizing agents such as shea butter, cocoa butter, jojoba oil, argan, aloe vera, and other moisturizing ingredients that help to keep the skin soft and supple. Shower creams are more moisturizing than regular body wash or shower gel and are suitable for people who have dry skin, sensitive skin, or a skin condition. Shower creams are also known to produce a protective film on the skin, which helps to lock in moisture. Shower creams are applied directly to the skin and are smoothed over the body, starting at the neck and working down to the toes.
