Here’s The Skinny
What It Is: A collection of all natural aromatherapy body washes from natural beauty brand skinnyskinny. Why are natural body washes the way to go you ask? Well, most commercial body washes include sodium lauryl sulphate, a foaming agent that gives you that fluffy, bubbly lather. I hate to burst your collective bubbles, but SLS is actually a super harsh cleaning agent. So harsh in fact, it’s also used in industrial cleaning products, like those used in car washes. If you suffer from irritated or itchy skin in particular, SLS is likely to blame.
So the alternative then, is natural body washes. But if you miss that frothy lather, the cool thing about skinnyskinny’s collection is it still fluffs up nicely to give you that luxurious soapy feeling you crave. Plus, there’s the aromatherapy benefits. Scented using only organic oils and no faux fragrances, each formula is carefully crafted to boost your spirits in one respect or another – like the spicy, energizing Cardamom & Pink Peppercorn or the calming Kent & West. Plus, the ingredients are organic and designed to soothe your skin, ensuring a glorious experience in the shower and supple skin after.
Who It’s For: Your green beauty junky friend, that already loves skinnyskinny but hasn’t tried their body washes yet. Your cousin that’s letting you stay at their cabin one weekend this summer, as a lovely houseguest present. Your wife, as a nice way to unwind after a hard week at work.
What It Costs: Each bottle is $32 USD. Shipping to Canada through the brand’s site is about $18 and includes tracking.
Where It’s At: While you can shop at skinnyskinny’s online store, they’re also sold at several Canadian locations. You can also petition your fave salon or green beauty shop to carry them!
