It's been an age since I did a multi-body-wash post, and given I've decided to NOT buy any more that contain Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS), I figured it was a good time to let you know which ones I've found and loved (so far) that are SLS-free. There are heaps of others out there of course and I've barely scratched the surface of shower products that are minus this dodgy ingredient, but below are nine that are currently in my caddy(s) which I can highly recommend, and would most definitely repurchase as they are non-drying, pleasantly fragranced, reasonably readily available, and don't break the bank ♥...
I've already raved about the majority of these in earlier (either dedicated or Empties) posts, but there's a couple of newbies which I'm excited about too, so here we go, from left to right ♥...
Sukin For Men Body Wash - (500ml, $13.95)
I scored this for free from the beautyheaven Rewards Room, and it's delish! The scent is a combination of mandarin, lime & cinnamon oils which is fabulously refreshing, and also in the mix is aloe, jojoba, baobab, pepper & sesame oils. I really like the chubby squat bottle, and the bubbles are creamy, super concentrated, and even put a little moisture back into my skin ♥...
SheaMoisture African Black Soap Soothing Body Wash - (384ml, $24.95)
Reviewed last month (and more from the range) HERE. Absolutely crazy about this body wash - available from Priceline or the SheaMoisture website (HERE), and a reminder that there's a 30% discount code if you enter KATS at the checkout ♥...
Dove Deep Moisture Shower Foam - (400ml, $9.00)
Oh yay, at last, Dove has created a body wash that's sulfate-free! This shower foam has the classic Dove fragrance which I find so refreshing and zingy-clean, the suds are amazingly thick and rich, and two pumps will deliver a hefty hit of skin softening lather to deep clean your entire bod ♥...
Natures Commonscents Natural Goats Milk Body Wash - (500ml, $8.00)
Another beauty that's awesome value - there's a $4 discount voucher HERE for Woolworths which makes it half price! VERY subtle baby powderish fragrance, also contains vitamin E, and it's an Aussie brand that doesn't test on animals. This and their oatmeal scrub are ALWAYS in my shower - it's such a massive bottle with an indestructible pump, and so skin-loving and hydrating ♥...
Grahams Natural Body Wash with Cucumber & Aloe Vera - (250ml, $15.95)
Huge fan of the brand (which is now available from Chemist Warehouse), and I did a full review of this fabulous body wash back in February (HERE). Bliss if you have dry, sensitive or troubled skin and an absolute pleasure in the warmer months when the herbal green tea fragrance will give you an uplifting shower experience. Incidentally, it's on special at the moment (until 26th November) from their website for the ridiculous price of $4.95 - I've ordered several! ♥...
OGX Extra Hydrating Radiant Glow Argan Oil of Morocco Body Wash - (577ml, $17.99)
I had no idea that OGX made body washes & lotions as well as hair products, but I discovered this tucked away on a side wall in Priceline a few months ago. The most expensive body wash in this bunch, but well worth it for the moisture it feeds into your skin while it cleanses. There are a few other varieties in the range, and I'll be reviewing the Tsubaki Blossom (divine!) one in my November Empties post. This one is delightfully (and delicately) fragranced, and the bubbles are endless - currently half price at Priceline, but who knows for how long ♥...
Ecostore Vanilla & Coconut Body Wash - (400ml, $8.99)
I think this is my 5th bottle of this wonderful body wash. The best (all natural) vanilla & coconut scented product my nose has had the pleasure to detect. Totally non-drying, ingredients include harakeke, a medicinal plant that's used to treat boils and burns. Love that this range is available from Woolworths, and it's cruelty-free. I also use their hand wash, which smells just as yummy ♥...
Thankyou Botanical Lemon Myrtle & Goat's Milk Body Wash - (500ml, $7.99)
Another one that I've bought numerous times from the supermarket, and raved about in several Empties posts - my favourite scent from this brand, it's SO lusciously lemony I could just sniff it all day long, and it comes in a hand wash too! The soothing and softening formula also contains aloe & chamomile, and this company is doing wonderful things for people in need ♥...
Marc Anthony Renewing Macadamia Oil Body Wash - (500ml, $12.99)
Another gem I spotted in Priceline, there are four flavours in this range, and I chose this one because it was labelled "extra nourishing", and it sure is. There's Tahitian vanilla, hibiscus & green tea along with macadamia oil & Vitamin E, and while the packaging is meh, what's inside is a subtle delight for the senses, as well as a treat for dry skin - definitely a keeper ♥...
Well lovelies, that's a wrap for the time being - hope this information is helpful to those of you whose skin objects to SLS ♥...
Take care of you,

I so think I should come and live with you and be able to share your stash of body washes :D
ReplyDeleteAll of these sound lovely. My passion is growing for the Shea Moisture brand....they are awesome.
Well there's plenty to go around Fawn ha ha! SheaMoisture products are beaut aren't they - I've just picked up the Raw Shea Butter Soap with Frankincense & Myrrh Extracts, sounded just perfect for Christmas ♥
DeleteWow, thats alot there that are sulphate free! Love it! Thanks Kats :D Freaky xo
ReplyDeleteThere are heaps Freaky, which is such good news - as you may have gathered I love having lots of choices ♥
DeleteHi Kats your review on SLS free body washes got me curious. What is SLS? So I did a little research. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Apparently SLS is in dove body soap which my husband loves and refuses to buy anything else. I might try and find some alternatives though whilst we use up our stash. He doesn’t like body washes only soaps so .... it might take me a while.
ReplyDeleteGood on you for checking it out Okatko - does your husband like the Dove soap for the fragrance, or what it does for his skin? SheaMoisture makes some amazing soaps which would be suitable for a fella, the Shea Butter one in particular is very moisturising, and doesn't contain SLS ♥
