The Saem Body & Soul Sweet Thai Body Scrub NEW
Works for
CleansingAmmonium lauryl sulfate, Sodium laureth sulfate + 3 moreCan be harsh
“A 2-in-1 body scrub that also cleanses and moisturizes skin while leaving a sweet fruity fragrance.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin.
It contains the following cleansing agents that tend to be harsh on the skin: sodium laureth sulfate.
The following cleansing agents are typically mild, but still can cause an irritation or allergy for some people ammonium lauryl sulfate, cocamidopropyl betaine.
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.
ExfoliationMicrocrystalline celluloseNot delivered
“Infused with Apricot Seed Powder and Orange Peel Powder to gently exfoliate dead skin cells.”
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.
