Avocado Oil

Glycerin
- Glycerin is a water-grabbing molecule (humectant) that makes sure your skin holds onto water. It also acts as a natural antimicrobial to help rid your skin of pathogens.
Sunflower Seed Oil

Frequently Asked Questions
Tell me more about hot showers and skin absorption.
This is the basis for why we made our shampoo & body bar. Studies in both animals and humans show that when your skin is heated, its permeability, or what travels through your skin into your body, increases. This applies to both water-soluble and oil-soluble chemicals.
Taking a hot shower or sitting in a hot sauna will dramatically increase what your skin absorbs, and therefore, it's so important to use a skin care product that won't harm you if absorbed.
This study offers a comprehensive review on the subject of skin permeability and is the basis of our claim.
Why is this bar great for people who travel a lot?
The reason is that it's portable and a solid bar shampoo. It takes up so little space in your toiletry bag so you don't feel weighed down by your shampoo.
It's so hydrating for your hair and skin. It crushes any hotel or short term rental shampoo.
Not only that, it will never lead to a TSA check.
We designed it for our friends who like to travel a lot.
How long does Shampoo & Body Bar last?
One bar lasts approximately 21 head to toe washes. The 3-pack you're buying will conceivably last 9 weeks, or 63 washes.
For best results, keep bar dry after use.
When does my order ship and how much will it cost?
Your order is packaged for shipping the same business day that your order is placed. If you place your order on the weekend, we package your order the next business day.
Once packaged, your order is shipped the following business day via USPS. If you select standard shipping, your order will arrive within 2-3 business days.
For most continental-US orders, shipping Shampoo & Body Bar will cost $4.90.
If you spend $59 or more on your order, you don't pay for shipping!
Example scenario: You place your order on Monday. The bundle is packaged on Monday. It ships via USPS on Tuesday, and you receive your hand-saving, clinic-crushing package on Thursday or Friday that same week.
Why should I care about your pH balanced claim?
pH balanced means that Shampoo & Body Bar matches your skin's pH. You'll want to care about that because it means it strengthens your skin and hair, rather than removing the normal acids that keep your skin strong and intact. This is the problem with traditional soaps, which are alkaline and harsh on your skin and hair.
Tell me more about zero-waste packaging.
Normal shampoos are packaged in plastics that are made from non renewable hydrocarbons (think petroleum).
By contrast, Shampoo & Body Bar uses paper packaging that uses light dyes that are biodegradable. The paper box packaging itself is completely compostable and degrades in the environment through normal ecologic processes. This is a big difference between us and other brands that use plastic.
What are the advantages of using a solid bar shampoo?
You'll pass through TSA checkpoints without getting stopped! You'll be able to jump on the plane and get to your locums destination without the hassle of a TSA stop.
Can I use this bar all over my body?
Yes! Shampoo & Body Bar is literally that! It's a shampoo and a cleanser that you can use from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet. That's why it's the only shower product that you'll ever need to buy.
Do you have a guarantee?
Yes! If you're not completely satisfied with your purchase, contact us by email and let us know. We offer a 30-day, no-questions-asked money back guarantee.
How do I get a hold of you if I have more questions?
Great question! And, we'd love to hear from you.
