If you deal with limited mobility, balance issues, are recovering from surgery or just...don’t have access to a full bathroom, you may not be able to bathe as often as you’d like. If you’re looking for an easy way to get that “just stepped out of the shower” feeling, without needing to step anywhere — listen up. Deemed “absolutely the best thing I have ever paid for” and “the only thing that has helped,” this foaming, no-rinse cleaning foam lets you wash your whole body wherever you are — no water needed. A single bottle runs under $12, but you’ll get a better deal on the 3-pack.
Reviewers say it “repels all odors without having to scrub,” which lets them “wipe my whole body while seated on a chair.”
Described as a “godsend” for feeling fresh without a full shower and a truly life-changing purchase, this cleansing foam is designed for your body and hair. It’s basically like a waterless shampoo/body wash combo that’s made to be gentle for sensitive skin. When it’s time to get clean, simply pump the foam onto a washcloth or directly onto your skin/hair, rub it in and towel-dry or wipe off as needed. Intended to wipe away mess and smells without leaving residue, shoppers say it “could be used in bed without a mess.”
“Keeps me independent,” shopper Michelle wrote. “...Only recently have I lost my ability to balance. This really helps me maintain my independence.” Another shopper says the foam is “perfect anytime you cannot get up to get to a sink,” noting it’s “gentle on ANY part of the body!” “This was a godsend when needed to save steps,” they wrote.
Plus, users agree the foam “does a good job of making your hair feel fresh and clean as well,” in addition to feeling great on the skin. “I’ve purchased other non-rinses, but they tend to dry the skin,” shopper Ryan wrote. “This product is not overly soapy, highly scented, or sticky. I found it to be very refreshing.”
Because the foam is so gentle and easy to use, shoppers love it for feeling fresh out of the house, too.
One reviewer who is dealing with “dribble” after recovering from prostate cancer writes, “When I use this product, I can clean myself dry myself and feel very fresh. It feels like I’ve just taken a shower cleans up the gooey, sticky mess that happens from urine. I couldn’t do it without it.”
Others say they brought it with them to hospital stays, long travel days and camp trips. Some even have added it to their “hurricane supplies” emergency prep kits.
“This product is a lifesaver for caregivers,” Lori wrote. “It’s a quick way to bathe disabled and elderly clients. It cleans better than the wipes. Great job on the hair too.”

Another way to make body care easier? Try a spray-on moisturizer! Don’t know where to start? Check out these three favorites, courtesy of HuffPost Shopping.
A derm-favorite moisturizing body spray
"My favorite drugstore brand of body spray is the Aquaphor Ointment Body Spray," Dr. Alicia Zalka, a Connecticut-based board-certified dermatologist, told HuffPost. "I like this because it is the Aquaphor Ointment that dermatologists know and love, but in a lighter spray that is easy to apply. Derms love it because it is fragrance-free and provides soothing relief for dry skin with no extras. Applying a heavy or greasy moisturizer can be tricky on wide areas of the body or on hair-bearing areas, like a man's chest. This spray format solves that issue."
An affordable option from a tried-and-true brand
This classic spray body lotion has a non-greasy finish. The Vaseline Cocoa Radiant Spray contains petroleum jelly to lock in moisture and cocoa butter for radiance. Its bottle offers a convenient continuous spray.
Promising review: "I never really leave reviews, but I HAD to for this. If you have any kind of sensory issue with lotion like me, this is will be such a life saver. The spray is a lot less work than normal lotion and it’s so lightweight that it just rubs in so easily. I’ve never tried any lotion that eased my sensory issues more than this!!" — Erin
A spray body oil for an extra glow
If you're more interested in the glow of a body oil but without the mess of application, try this spray-on version from Glossier. It has a dry-touch finish and an orange blossom neroli scent. It employs three oils: sunflower seed, grapeseed and oat.
Promising review: “This is my favorite body oil hands down. I’m on my 3rd bottle. It’s not really greasy and it soaks in the skin quickly. The smell is amazing and the spray nozzle is perfect. I’ll always stick to this one” — jomama44
