Famous for clean hair care, the team at Hask have a wash for your entire body. Editor Trudi Brewer shares its virtues.
It’s one product you may never think much about, but body wash has an important job. Here’s the thing: It needs to clean your skin with those good-for-you ingredients, swiftly remove grime while nourishing the skin at the same time. But wait, it needs to be free from any nasties, because once it’s done its job, it washes down the drain and into our oceans, it needs to do no harm - right?
Here’s why we rate Hask Body Wash.
What is it?
Designed to cleanse your skin naturally, this clean body wash comes in four scents, including Coconut, Cucumber & Aloe, Lavender & Vanilla, and Shea & Cocoa Butter (pictured above).
What's in it?
It's passed the BeautyEQ clean beauty test because it's more a case of what's not in it. To prevent sensitivities, it's free from nasties, including sulfates, parabens, silicones, phthalates, gluten, skin-drying alcohol, and artificial colours. It is also dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic, pH-balanced to protect your skin's barrier. And, of course, it's vegan and cruelty-free.
Hask Coconut Body Wash, $9.
Our favourite: Maybe it's because summer has finally arrived, but we can't get enough of this heavenly scented, creamy coconut wash. Without the joy of jetting off to an exotic island, the way this wash smells helps transport you there while being stacked with the oil from the coconut and vitamin E. so if, like us, your skin is feeling parched, here's your new go-to daily wash.
