“Shea Moisture's Lavender & Wild Orchid Calming 2-in-1 bubble bath & body wash is infused with coconut oil for skin to gently cleanse sensitive skin, while relaxing the senses.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin.
The following cleansing agents are typically mild, but still can cause an irritation or allergy for some people cocamidopropyl betaine, cocamidopropyl dimethylamine.
Keep in mind that cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.
ExfoliationNo ingredient credited for this claimNot delivered
“Luxuriate, lather and gently polish skin with natural Lavender Buds.”
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
