Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

1
What it does: Skin Conditioning, Solvent
Community Rating: Loved

Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. Talk about multi-purpose! If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

2
What it does: Buffering
Community Rating: Mixed

Sodium Hydroxide is also known as lye or caustic soda. It is used to adjust the pH of products; many ingredients require a specific pH to be effective.

In small amounts, sodium hydroxide is considered safe to use. However, large amounts may cause chemical burns due to its high alkaline.

Your skin has a natural pH and acid mantle. This acid mantle helps prevent harmful bacteria from breaking through. The acid mantle also helps keep your skin hydrated.

"Alkaline" refers to a high pH level. A low pH level would be considered acidic.

A potential holy grail for those with temperamental, sensitive skin. This creamy body wash is perfectly rich and soothing, making it suited to managing eczema and chronically dry skin without leaving residue. Simultaneously, the ingredients won't risk a breakout for those with seborrhea or fungal acne.

It is worth noting that this wash does contain ammonium lauryl sulfate. Anecdotally, I have found ALS to be mercifully non-reactive with my skin. It offers the textural joy of a silky, gentle foam, and hits the cleansing sweet spot between "no residue" and "not stripping". Your mileage may vary if your skin prefers little-to-no cleansers in a wash - but that does not include me.
In a formulation like this, these positives are balanced exceptionally well. The ALS is a great dry skin alternative to SLS's cleaning power and suds. It makes the body wash an enjoyable experience in addition to being effective.
