Body wash

I've was just reading on another site that if you use anti-bacterial soap it may increase your chances of yeast infections. My husband & I use Dial antibacterial soap. I'm thinking this may be a bad idea. Also I have somewhat sensitive skin that gets dry really really easily. I also have problems with over active sweat glands & tend to get stinky. What body washes do you recommend, I'm gonna need something none antibacterial, with skin mosturizers, & works hard on de-stinking.

Body washes makes my hoo hoo itch if I use them too much. We use the Lever 2000 and I've NEVER had a problem with itching.

We've used Dial for years, and not had any problems. We so don't use the yellow Dial, because I'm alergic, just the Mountain Fresh, Tropical, or the Oatmeal and Lavendar. All of these have moisturizers, I think. At least they have not been very drying. I've tried others, but they don't seem to control the stink like Dial.

We've been using the blue dial (not sure what scent) we also have used the purple. I'm very sensitive to fragrances so only certain smells work for me.

We use Zest here. We are all sweaty pigs and it really helps. I have very dry skin also. My elbows are the worst and sometime crack if I don't keep lotion on them. Since my skin is so dry, it's hard for me to find something with fragrance that really helps. I have found that St. Ives 24 Hour Moisturing lotion does work wonders and last a long time.
