I've been finding a lot of great products in the drugstore recently, so I decided to start writing about them in a new column called Frugal Finds. Because nothing makes my day better then when I have to go to CVS to pick up something I need and wind up also coming home with something fun!
I don't think I even knew that Dial made body wash until recently, but now I'm all over it. There are actually a ton of different scents, but I tested out the NutriSkin Ultra Hydrating Body Wash Grape Seed Oil & Lemongrass. The scent is interesting - it's kind of light and fruity, but you can smell the lemongrass as well. It's sort of an energizing scent, but it's not overwhelming, more like something to use in the morning to wake you up without shocking your body. The formula itself is nice, too. It lathers up nicely and it doesn't dry my skin out, even when I use it twice a day. (I'm one of those people who has to shower again before bed if I've been running around all day and gotten sweaty at all. I just hate getting into bed dirty, but sometimes that can really make my skin dry. My moisturizer purchases go way up during the summer!)
The great thing about the Dial body washes is that they're super affordable. The one I tried is only $5.49 for 16 ounces, so you'll get a lot of bang for your buck. (SO important at the moment for most people). It also comes in a ton of different scents - I'm definitely going to pick up the Spring Water scent to see if it compares to my beloved Bath and Body Works' Dancing Waters. I'd also like to try Soy & Almond Milk and Cranberry & AntiOxidant Pearls. How good do they all sound? And at less than six dollars a bottle, there's no shopping guilt involved. See? Frugal CAN be fun!

I'm using the cranberry right now and LOVE it!!! You've got to try it!
