How is Essentials bodywash/shampoo different from commercial soap/shampoo?

Many brand-name “bodycare” aren't bodycares at all. If you start looking at the ingredients, you'll realize they're much more similar to detergents that you use to wash your laundry or dishes!

Essentials use natural stuff as our ingredients, this means you're getting a quality product that will help nourish and protect your skin.

 

Why should I use a natural bodycare?

The chemical ingredients in commercial products are absorbed into your body and bloodstream, your kidney has to work harder to break them down from your blood. At the worst scenario, in the future those chemical ingredients will stay inside your blood and  create diseases you don’t want, such as cancer, reproduction problems, etc.

On the other hand, our natural bodycare are made from plant-derived ingredients harvested from the Earth - all-natural oils extracted from plants using distilled water. Not only are these oils much safer than chemical ingredients, many of the essential oils in our colognes have additional benefits for your skin and overall health!
