Then, use a scented body wash like Caress Mystic Forever body wash to seal in moisture. ‘There is nothing more attractive than soft skin and good fragrance,’ says international plus size model Denise Bidot. ‘I love how the scent is released hours after I used it.’ The fragrance touch technology in the body wash releases bursts of iris and amber scent throughout the day.
