You can probably relate to this scenario: You hop into the shower and grab your razor, but then you notice you're out of shaving cream. Ugh. Going sans shaving cream is pretty much out of the question — you know from first-hand experience that will leave you with a serious case of razor burn. That's why we're fans of super-rich body washes: They double as shaving creams so you can remove body hair without the risk of nicks and cuts — and they get you fresh and clean at the same time. Here, we've rounded up our favorite ultra-creamy body washes to use in place of shaving cream.
I've been obsessed with this scent ever since I traveled to Japan two summers ago. But what I really love most about this body wash is the hydrating formula full of shea butter, coconut oil, and cocoa butter. Not only does it leave my skin silky soft post-shower, it's a great replacement for shaving cream whenever I'm out of stock.
Dove is known for its oh-so-moisturizing body cleansers, and this addition to its line is another creamy winner. The mousse formula, infused with essential rose oil, has a luxuriously rich lather that makes it an effective shaving cream as well as body wash.

What do you get when you combine relaxing lavender oil with luscious shea butter? This creamy body wash that rivals high-end shaving creams. Safe even for sensitive skin, this body wash imparts long-lasting moisture and a calming scent.
