Answer

Why Is pH Level Mentioned On The Package?

During the formulation process we optimize the pH of the formula. We believe it directly impacts the safety and efficacy of the formula. The pH objective will vary based on product purpose. On the secondary packaging (carton) we provide a pH range. The reason pH range is indicated is that pH may vary during the manufacturing process and/or slightly change over time. Formulas that do not contain enough water will not have a pH listed.

Answer

Is This Product Certified Gluten-Free, Soy-Free And Nut-Free?

This product is not certified gluten-free, soy-free or nut-free. This product is manufactured in a facility where gluten, soy and nuts may be used. If you have an allergy to gluten, soy or nuts, we recommend that you do not use this product. If you still wish to try, please consider a patch test.

    Ticks all the boxes

    I was pleasantly surprised to fid this body wash smells heavenly, lathers well, and is moisturizing & nourishing for my skin. It's difficult to find a body wash that does all three in one product, and isn't a small fortune, but this product does it all. I've already recommended this product to others, and will continue purchasing.

    Worth it

    Get this. Your skin will thank you for it. Cleans, soothes, hydrates and no dry feeling after use. And the scent is subtle and doesn’t linger. Skin feels and smells fresh. Happy user for several years now.
