fresh Body & Hand Wash with Vitamins C & E
by fresh · body_care
Editor's Take
Glycerin and amino acid surfactants lead a sulfate-free wash that actually respects the skin barrier, with stable Vitamin C doing real work at the top of the list.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Efficacy: 7.2 / 10
- Modern Tech: 6.8 / 10
- Clean Beauty: 6.5 / 10
- Sustainability: 8.3 / 10
The Verdict
This is a competently constructed body wash that breaks from the sulfate-heavy drugstore norm. The amino acid surfactant base (taurate and isethionate) cleanses without stripping, while high-level Glycerin and stable Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate) deliver hydration and antioxidant protection that outlast the rinse. The fragrance allergens and undisclosed Parfum are the trade-off for the scent, but the core formula is built to support barrier health, not just foam. Worth it if you want a daily wash that treats skin like skin, not a surface to scrub.
