Life saving body wash

I’ve been using this body wash for years, since I start having allergic reactions to many bath and body products. I’ve used a lot of their other products as well, all wonderful. Please bring back the deodorant and the sunscreen!!!! Thanks

Great hypoallergenic shampoo

When I found out I was allergic to fragrance, as well as several other compounds frequently used in cosmetics, I was sure I would never find a great shampoo. I was wrong! I bought two different brands, and this is the one I’ll buy again. My hair feels great, and no fragrance!

Allergy Free for me as a shampoo

5 star for non-allergic reaction. Soft water a must to lather and get the oils out of the hair Love an itch free scalp.

Yassss.

I love this stuff! Sometimes it doesn’t quite clean as much as I’d like, but it doesn’t make me breakout. I have WILDLY sensitive face skin that hates sulfates and I often get irritation on the hairline. This is the first type of sensitive skin shampoo that doesn’t strip my fine hair of its shiny blonde glory and make it look like straw! Yay VMV! As a body wash, it’s very gentle. I tend to use another brand that’s more affordable as bodywash, but for hair, this takes the cake.

Works!

I love the big softie shampoo! So far so good with it, my hair is soft shiny and smooth. I have a hard time finding any shampoo that keeps my head from itching like crazy and this seems to do the trick! And it’s gentle enough to use on my one year old! Would recommend this for anyone, especially anyone having scalp issues!
