Sukin Soap Free Body Wash 500 ml

Product Information

However, liquid and bar soaps and alcohol hand sanitiser can be problematic for those with sensitive skin and hand eczema, and you may find that soap and SLS is too drying on your skin and leaves your hands feeling raw and tight. If this happens, you might like to read more about avoiding dryness from frequent hand washing. What we really love about this wash is that it also contains niacinamide, a common ingredient in facial moisturizers, helping it pull double-duty as a body and face cleanser. Niacinamide is a topical form of the vitamin B3, which may reduce inflammation in people with acne and protect your skin against sun damage (though those results have been seen more with oral B3, not topical). Your doctor or pharmacist will talk to you about which type of emollient will work best for your skin condition.

On the other hand, a non-scented body wash will not interfere with your perfume and you can use it at any time. Shower gels often rely on skin-irritating sulfates such as SLS to create foam but the gentler SCS we use in our organic bath care collection lathers up perfectly. All Green People’s natural shower gels are soap-free, SLS-free and pH-balanced. The beauty of my Clean Body Wash (besides you at the end of it), is that I know how to work you all over. Private parts included. What does this mean? It means I save the dirt for the talking and keep you feeling clean and fresh. Regular soaps are made with anionic surfactants .For example- sodium olivate. Here the surfactant is created with sodium hydroxide and olive oil. These anionic surfactants are powerful cleansers and form a high amount of lather. If your product has such surfactants, then it is definitely not a soap-free product.You know that totally natural oil you produce on the reg? Yeah, that’s actually necessary for your skin’s function and feel. You see babe, your skin is clever-er than you think. Naturally produced oils prevent your skin from drying or getting damaged. The use of soap strips those oils away, leaving your skin prone to: acne, irritation, and frustration. When looking for a body wash when you have sensitive skin, make sure to choose a product that is soap-free—true soaps have an alkaline pH and can disrupt the skin barrier, leading to irritation,” says Joshua Zeichner, MD, associate professor of dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital. “Fragrances often make using your product more enjoyable, but [you should avoid them, too, as they] can be associated with skin allergies in people who are sensitive.”

There are many types of formulations of body washes and cleansers, and while none of them are automatically bad for people with sensitive skin, there are a few that should be used with caution.

Non-soap cleansers are less likely to strip the good oils from your skin, because generally non-soap body washes are pH balanced, and therefore less likely to cause irritation.

Soap and soap-free cleansers both work in removing dirt and oil from the skin. But soap takes away a lot more than required. It strips off the natural oil from the skin and dries it out. However, it is completely a personal choice to choose between soap or soap-free. It depends on your skin type and needs. With all the information given above, we hope to make your decision a little easier. For those with sensitive skin, this skin-clearing body wash is a game-changer. Sudsing up regularly helps kill the bacteria that cause breakouts, so you can bust out the tank tops with confidence. This clarifying body wash is loaded with botanicals like tea tree oil to kill bacteria [ source ] and lavender to soothe inflammation [ source ]. Raw honey , a potent antibacterial and humectant [ source ], helps get rid of sweat-loving microbes and softens skin. But Dr. Friedler says that many of the common brands with sensitive skin-specific products are dermatology-focused—in other words, they’re designed to be gentle enough for nearly everyone to use. This includes Eucerin, CeraVe, Aveeno, Dove, and Aquaphor, just to name a few (and, if you’ll notice, many of those brands made our list!).For eczema: Ceramide-based washes help to keep the skin barrier intact and healthy, which is especially important with this skin condition. Try minimizing shower or bath time and avoid using hot water to prevent drying out skin.
