Sanex Zero 0%

Seen the new Sanex advert on tv.. amazing - they claim that is contains 'a reduced number of ingredients' and contains 0% Parabens, 0% Phenoxyethanol, 0% Colorants & 0% Phthalates.. That is all good news.. however it does contain: 

INGREDIENTS:

AQUA , SODIUM LAURETH SULFATE , GLYCERIN , COCAMIDOPROPYL BETAINE , SODIUM CHLORIDE , COCO-GLUCOSIDE , PARFUM , SODIUM LACTATE , LACTIC ACID , SODIUM BENZOATE .

It contains SLS.. wow :(

Sodium laureth sulfate, or sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES) is an irritant like many other detergents, with the irritation increasing with concentration. It has also been shown that SLES causes eye or skin irritation in experiments done on animals and humans. The related surfactant SLS is a known irritant, and research suggests that SLES can also cause irritation after extended exposure in some people

SLES is an inexpensive (cheap) and very effective foaming agent. (we use coconut oil - which has real benefits to the skin as well as giving a great lather) SLES, SLSALS and sodium pareth sulfate are surfactants that are used in many cosmetic products for their cleansing and emulsifying properties. They behave similarly to soap. (Similar to soap.. but NOT the same as a natural cold processed soap that contain natural oils & butters)..
