Why Switching to Natural Body Wash Could Be the Best Move for Your Skin

When you get out of the shower, how does your skin feel? Ideally, we should feel refreshed and moisturized with happy skin — itching and tightness are not normal after using body wash!

Natural Body Wash

Are you lathering up with skin happy ingredients, or just using the same old soap that leaves your skin feeling stripped and squeaky? We’re spilling the bubbles on a little secret that makes our body wash formula conditioning, more natural, and beneficial for your skin. We know you’ll feel inspired to make the switch to a better bathing routine!

Before You Wash: Have You Seen These Ingredients?

We’ve said it before — skin is our largest organ. As arguably one of the most important “organs” we have, what’s just as important as what we put on it is what we don’t. That’s why we’re creating cleaner products with a mission of celebrating natural ingredients and using them to our advantage.

Take for example fragrances in body wash. We all love a product that smells nice, and it definitely adds to the experience when we’re using it, but most of the time fragrances aren’t included as a simple perk.

Some fragrances are alcohol-based meaning they’re drying out our skin every time we apply that product. Furthermore, perfumes are usually included in products to mask the odors of other ingredients which when you think about it, is a bit alarming.

If a product is good for our skin, should it really be giving off an odor that then needs to be covered up? We didn’t agree, which is why our products are scented with essential oils, real citrus peels, and food-grade essences.

Parabens have definitely become a mainstream dirty word, and we love the awareness spreading about how harmful they can be, but many of us still don’t know or understand the risks.

Parabens are used as preservatives in many skin care products and while that sounds innocent enough, they’re linked to skin inflammation, hormone disruption, and have been linked to certain cancers. Even with a relatively minimal risk like skin irritation, does using that fancy (probably overpriced product) seem worth it?

Get to Know Your Body Wash

What’s in a name might smell as sweet, but what’s in our formula is even sweeter. We like to start our body wash off with an aloe base for a few reasons; first, because it offers unparalleled healing and soothing properties for skin.

ALOE is anti-inflammatory meaning it helps relieve active irritation on the skin as well as itchiness, scarring and burns. Not only is the gel extracted from this plant calming for skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis, but the gel is also incredibly hydrating for skin.

Aloe juice makes an ideal base for our body wash because our skin can absorb hydration as we’re cleansing, while also treating any irritation we might have, especially after shaving or rough seasonal weather.

Our next key ingredient comes from the sea, bringing with it beneficial minerals and vitamins for the skin. SEAWEED is naturally detoxifying, helping to purge surface collagen and moisture destroying toxins that have gathered on our skin’s surface.

Environmental stressors like toxins and temperatures can also lead to dry skin, flaking, dullness, and a loss of firmness. Luckily, humectant properties help to seal in our native moisture levels, while pulling in water from our environment (in this case, our steamy shower) for enhanced hydration.

The seaweed and algae used in our body wash formulas contribute skin-plumping seaweed collagen, along with amino acids and anti-aging vitamins A, C, and E.

Perfect Body Wash with Less Plastic

If you’re looking to reduce your single-use plastics footprint and find the best natural body wash, you’ve come to the right place. You can now save plastic by choosing a value-size 16oz bottle from our selection of body washes that suit all skin types!

Not sure where to begin your body wash journey? These are our favorite formulas for every mood!

Switching to a natural body wash offers a significant improvement in how your skin feels and looks. By choosing products that utilize soothing ingredients like aloe vera and seaweed, you avoid harsh chemicals and artificial fragrances that can strip your skin of its natural moisture. This shift not only enhances hydration and reduces irritation but also aligns with a commitment to cleaner, more sustainable skincare. With a natural body wash, you ensure that your cleansing routine leaves your skin refreshed and well-nourished, supporting both its health and the environment.
