For too many guys, a "body care routine" boils down to using a crusty bar of soap in the shower. But if you want to take care of your body, fight the signs of aging, and look and smell your best, day in and day out, you need to invest a bit more time and effort into taking care of yourself.
Thankfully, we've got you covered, with a comprehensive array of products that will cover you from top to bottom (literally, as it turns out), addressing every variety of body issue from dry skin to sun burns.
Here are the best body grooming products of 2026:
Best Body Wash
Sans Savon Charlevoix Boreal Forest Blend Body Wash
Stench stands no chance against botanical-forward Sans Savon, a soap-free, sustainably-sourced cleanser that smells as if you’ve walked “through a boreal forest with balsam fir and spruce.” Notes of blue spruce and peppermint round out the vegan showertime indulgence that also protects your skin’s microbiome with prebiotics and 100% natural essential oils.
Best Bar Soap
Pacha Soap Co. Vanilla & Sage Bar Soap
Men who prefer cleaning with a traditional bar will relish Pacha Soap Co.’s handcrafted vanilla and sage soap. The ocean-hued block is chock-full of moisturizing shea butter and Bulgarian lavender with the alluring, spa-familiar scents of vanilla and fresh sage.
Best Body Lotion
Santu Lima Mexicana Body Lotion
A soft body is a happy body and Santu’s Lima Mexicana lotion delivers hydrated, radiant skin. Made with locally harvested Mexican lime, Guerrero eucalyptus, and rosemary de la madre tierra, the self-care showstopper will inevitably find a permanent spot in any evening skincare routine.
Best Stick Deodorant
Blu Atlas 48-Hour Natural Deodorant
If armpit smells have you feeling blu, this natural deodorant from Blu Atlas — without aluminum and harsh chemicals — will step in to neutralize odor at the source and leave you fresh and confident for 48 hours. The classic scent includes hints of bamboo and sage, though the stick is also available in santal cedar for the more woodsy-inspired gentleman.
Best Spray Deodorant
Dr. Squatch Rainforest Rapids Spray Deodorant
We’re not entirely sure what “rainforest rapids” would smell like (“crisp jungle rainfall,” according to the brand) but we’re grateful it exists as part of Dr. Squatch’s robust line of scented spray deodorants. Best of all, the dermatologist-tested and -approved products are of 98% natural origin, which means they’re safe to use in practically every nook and cranny of the body.
Best Body Deodorant
Fine’ry Alleged Deodorant Body Spray
Your pits aren’t the only sweat-accumulating crevices that demand a frequent refresh. Upgrade that scented body spray from high school with Fine’ry’s line of cologne-based deodorant body sprays. We’re big fans of the company’s Alleged scent, which is composed of coriander, green sage, and patchouli.
Best Hand Soap
Homecourt Mandarin Basile Hand Wash
Actress Courtney Cox wows with an extensive (and cleverly named) line of organic home products and this Homecourt handwash is, perhaps, its crown jewel. The iconic mandarin basile scent (which often sells out) features sparkling mandarin, fresh green basil, and ripe fig, making it an excuse to constantly get your hands dirty.
Best Hand Cream
O’Keeffe’s Working Hands Cream
Calluses, begone! O’Keeffe’s Working Hands Cream works overtime to provide relief for cracked, dry palms and digits. Frequent use also creates a protective barrier to prevent further moisture loss, making it a beauty routine essential, especially during winter months.

Best Foot Cream
Badger Peppermint & Tea Tree Foot Balm
If your heels are cracked and your soles need love, it’s time to invest in an effective moisturizing balm. Badger impresses with its concentrated base of olive oil, castor oil, and beeswax that softens even the most terrible of trotters, all while cooling essential oils of peppermint, tea tree, and rosemary invigorate and refresh so that feet feel alive again.
Best Sunscreen Lotion
EltaMD UV Lotion Broad-Spectrum SPF 35
Protecting your face from the sun is a critical step in any skincare routine, but we often neglect our bodies. EltaMD’s silky-smooth, broad-spectrum SPF lotion gives anyone an excuse to lather up on the daily with active zinc oxide to shield from the sun and hyaluronic acid to retain lost moisture.
Best Sunscreen Spray
MDSolarSciences Quick Dry Body Spray SPF 40
The guy on the go demands a quick-dry body spray that is equal parts protective and easy to use. MDSolarSciences has perfected their sunscreen formula with a lightweight, non-aerosol can that leaves no white cast and is water-resistant for up to 80 minutes.
