Grace of Me 2% Pyrithione Zinc Shampoo Bars are a great substitute to liquid shampoos or bar soap - this bar will give you roughly 100 washes with a maximum strength 2% Pyrithione Zinc. A single bar will easily outlast several bottles of liquid shampoo. Our shampoo bar is free form Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and is made mostly from vegetable ingredients. Made using soothing Aloe Vera with conditioning additives and excellent lather. The high glycerin content provides good moisturizing.
ABOUT: My name is Grace Addison and I'm 14 years old. I live in beautiful Falmouth, Maine (ME) and my dad owns a soap company called DermaHarmony. His team is helping me to manufacture & market my own shampoo bars. I'm getting help from folks that have built huge national brands. It's way cool!!! Shampoo bars are greener, cheaper, and more travel-friendly. So ditch that wasteful shampoo bottle today!!! I'll have more shampoo and soap bars online later this year - it takes 8-12 months to bring a product to market.
INGREDIENTS: The list looks long and complicated because making highly performant shampoo is not easy. This is a vegetable based solid shampoo with conditioning additives. Every ingredient was scrutinized for safety. We've chosen the most natural ingredients possible to produce an aesthetically pleasing safe shampoo bar.
- Glycerin
- Sodium Stearate (sodium stearate is the sodium salt of stearic acid - this white solid is the most common 'soap')
- Sorbitol (a sugar alcohol)
- Water
- Sodium Laurate (a surfactant that is entirely derived from the vegetable sources of coconut and/or palm kernel oil - this ingredient is frequently confused with Sodium Laureth Sulfate [not safe]. Sodium Laurate is not Sodium Laureth Sulfate)
- Propylene Glycol (made from glycerin, this is a moisturizer, emulsifier and carrier for fragrance oils)
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES - a plant derived surfactant found in many personal care products)
- Sodium Chloride (table salt)
- Disodium Lauryl (a surfactant foam boosting agent derived from plants - a surfactant is a substance that lowers the surface tension of oils)
- Sulfosuccinate (another surfactant foam boosting agent derived from plants)
- 2% Pyrithione Zinc
- Titanium Dioxide (a natural mineral)
- Stearic Acid (a vegetable derived waxy substance used to add firmness to the shampoo bar - is also a surfactant)
- Lauric Acid (a saturated fatty acid that comes from Paul or Coconut that contributes hardness, cleansing, and big fluffy lather)
- Pentasodium Pentetate (this salt of Pentetic Acid is used as a chelating agent to bind and sequester metal ions)
- Tetrasodium Etidronate (this is a chelating agent formed of four carboxylic acid groups attached to two nitrogen atoms)
- Polyquaternium 7 (organic conditioner)
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder
- Sodium Benzoate (a natural preservative)
