Formulation view This body wash uses SLS as the primary foaming agent, balanced by betaine and coco-glucoside for mildness. It includes coconut and shea extracts, glycerin, and propanediol for moisture, with glyceryl oleate adjusting texture. Suited for normal to oily skin seeking rich lather; dry or sensitive types may find SLS irritating. Formulator note: A classic anionic structure with a simple preservative system; fragrance levels require careful monitoring.

Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
- Strong anionic surfactant, high foam; high irritation risk, avoid in sensitive formulas.
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Coco-Glucoside
- Mild non-ionic surfactant for cleansing and foaming; rich foam, low irritation, suitable for sensitive and children's products
- Glyceryl Oleate
- Glyceride-based emulsifier and emolient with mild perfuming properties.
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Glycol Distearate
- Glycol distearate for thickening and emulsification; non-ionic, improves viscosity
- Ammonium Chloride
- Ammonium chloride as buffer, foam modifier, and viscosity control in shaving foams and cleansers, slightly acidic pH
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Lauryl Lactate
- Lauric lactate ester; mild emollient and emulsifier; suitable for all skin types, low allergenicity.
- Methyl Glucose Caprate/Caprylate Oleate
- Not decoded yet
- Polyglyceryl-3 Laurate
- Mild plant-based nonionic emulsifier for creams, lotions, and makeup removers.
- Propanediol
- Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative
- Tetrasodium Glda
- Not decoded yet
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter Extract
- Shea butter extract for conditioning and moisture; extraction may leave trace impurities, comedogenicity follows base oil rating of 2.
- Cocos Nucifera Fruit Extract
- Coconut fruit extract at 0.1–5%; moisturizing, caution for oily skin at high levels
- Oryza Sativa Bran Extract
- Rice bran extract rich in vitamins; moisturizing and soothing, generally well-tolerated.
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Methylchloroisothiazolinone
- Preservative (MCI); highly sensitizing, use only in rinse-off, avoid leave-on products.
- Methylisothiazolinone
- Strong preservative; high allergy risk, EU restricted for leave-on products, high formulation risk
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
