just like mousse or shaving cream but is a soap for body [SEP] the bottle and texture is very much like a hair mousse or shaving cream but is a wash for the body instead of a pump or squeeze bottle this comes out though as pressure aerosol also just like a mousse or shaving cream the ingredients necessary to make this happen are butane and propane they are aerosol propellents if you have ever used mousse hair spray various perfumes body sprays air fresheners aerosol deodorants or shaving creametc then you are already familiar with these ingredients they are generally recognized as safe and are used in small diluted quantities in skin care fun fact these ingredients are used in cosmetics and personal care products as a replacements for chlorofluorocarbons or cfc propellants some of which have been shown to have negative effects on the environment i am not a big fan of slathering my body with butane propane or isobutane but i understand their use in this type of medium so it is up to you to decidethis company does have non aerosol body wash available toothe resulting foamy wash comes out thick it is creamy because it reminds me so much of a shaving cream that it what i have been using it for then whatever is left over i use on rest of body is pleasant smelling enough to me but it is not quite a pure aromatherapy experience for me clearly it uses a variety of essential oils rosemary orange eucalyptus peppermint limonene however for whatever reason it contains parfum fragrance as an added ingredient as well as alpha isomethyl ionone another synthetic fragrance ingredient is there not enough naturally occurring scent from the use of essential oils i think the added synthetic fragrance is redundant and takes away from the olfactory experienceas an actual wash it is fine stars this is just a middle of the road rating i am not in love the experience is underwhelming i am much too quickly going through the container aromatherapy experience is a little off as i pick up on something other than essential oils otherwise the cleansing action is fine but i likely will not repurchasei think if i really want a foam wash i will just use another body wash or make my own wash and pour into a foaming soap dispensercruelty free no paraffin silicone or mineral oils plant based paraben free veganaqua water sodium laureth sulfate butane glycerin peg hydrogenated castor oil isopropyl palmitate prunus amygdalus dulcis sweet almond oil mentha aquatica extract rosmarinus officinalis rosemary oil citrus aurantium dulcis orange peel oil eucalyptus globulus leaf oil mentha piperita peppermint oil linalool limonene benzyl alcohol geraniol alpha isomethyl ionone sodium levulinate sodium anisate parfum fragrance hydroxyethylcellulose sorbitol propylene glycol glucose propane isobutane citric acid lactic acid sodium hydroxide
