Earth Rhythm Oats Milk and Honey Body Soap soothes skin irritations with antiseptic and anti-inflammatory qualities. Since oatmeal has anti-inflammatory, anti-itch, and antioxidant properties that relieve skin irritation due to skin problems, it's perfect for using on dry skin while honey gives a soothing effect. The soap bar is extremely helpful since it gives slight exfoliation to the skin while moisturising it simultaneously so we wouldn't suggest using it on a daily, just for days your body requires a bit more scrubbing.
