Gentle Hand Wash

Details

A mild, barrier-protecting liquid hand wash engineered for hands that work hard and wash frequently throughout the day. It cleanses with a calibrated tri-surfactant syndet engine that gently removes grime, grease, and surface dirt without stripping the skin's vital moisture barrier or disrupting its protective acid mantle.

• Non-stripping cleansing engine: Formulated with 12.0% active surfactant matter combining non-ionic Coco-Glucoside (5.5% active), amphoteric Cocamidopropyl Betaine (4.0% active), and amino-acid Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate (2.5% active). It creates a rich, cushiony lather that rinses cleanly without leaving a slimy film or dry tightness.
• Barrier-restoring skin lipid: Enriched with 1.0% Glyceryl Oleate, a physiological lipid naturally found in human skin vernix, that actively replaces lost surface fats during washing and prevents knuckle chapping.
• Deep hydration and soothing: Infused with pure Provitamin B5 (D-Panthenol 1.0%), pure inner-fillet Aloe Vera juice (1.0%), and vegetable Glycerin (5.0%) to attract and lock water into the upper stratum corneum.
• Physiological pH balance: Calibrated at pH 5.50 with a gentle citric acid buffer, exactly matching healthy skin acidity to keep antimicrobial enzymes active and protect the skin microbiome.
• Microbial defence for wet sinks: Uses an unassailable four-hurdle preservation shield (Phenoxyethanol 0.60%, Sodium Benzoate 0.40%, Ethylhexylglycerin 0.10%, and natural Sodium Phytate 0.10%) that passes ISO 11930 Criterion A against waterborne sink bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa).
• Truth in formulation: We make no deceptive 99.9% germ-kill claims, because thorough washing with running water physically removes dirt and transient bacteria without needing irritating biocides like triclosan, chloroxylenol, or benzalkonium chloride.
• How to use: Dispense one pump (about 2 ml) onto wet hands, rub briskly across palms, knuckles, and fingertips for 20 seconds, then rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• Packaging and circularity: Housed in a heavy, reusable 250 ml Type III amber glass bottle with a metal-clad lotion pump and unlaminated white-top kraft box. Pair with our 750 ml multilayer barrier refill pouch to eliminate 72% of packaging plastic.
