The full review
Most body washes clean by stripping — Olay's Ultra Moisture formula works the other way, depositing shea butter and moisturisers while it cleans. The result is skin that feels conditioned after towelling off, not squeaky-tight.
In Kenyan dry seasons — January-March and July-August — this matters. The ashy, tight feeling after bathing is your skin asking for moisture it didn't get; a moisturising body wash is the first fix before you even reach for lotion.
It lathers richly (a loofah or sponge goes far), the scent is a soft shea that doesn't compete with perfume, and it rinses clean without residue. Follow with lotion while skin is still damp for the full effect.
