VenaSilk Conditioning Body Wash with Natural Thickeners will leave your skin feeling so soft! Polyglucose Lactylate Blend and Cocamidopropyl Betaine are ultra gentle surfactants made from natural vegetable sources. VenaSilk, XanThix and GuarSilk enhance the feel of this formula and also provide stability and natural thickening. In a dual role, AquaEm serves as a solubilizer for the Lavender Essential Oil as well as a water soluble emollient. Leucidal Liquid is a natural preservative that is well suited for use in this formula. This cold-mix, all natural formula is easy to make and a joy to use.
