Being created from coconut oil means Cocamidopropyl Betaine is hydrating for the skin.
While Cocamidopropyl Betaine was believed to be an allergen, a study from 2012 disproved this. It found two compounds in unpure Cocamidopropyl Betaine to be the irritants: aminoamide and 3-dimethylaminopropylamine. High-grade and pure Cocamidopropyl Betaine did not induce allergic reactions during this study.

A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.

Smells so awful
I really wanted to like this body wash, especially with glycerin so high on the ingredients list, but it smells SO, SO bad. I can't place it exactly, but it's kinda like rotten fruit left in the sun or a trash can for days on end. It's awful. Spent half my shower and the rest of the night gagging from the smell left on my skin.

I absolutely love the smell. It's so random and I dont think it was intentional but it smells like popcorn and it's literally like a guilty pleasure to shower with it. It's also super moisturizing and pH balanced.
