Basis Sensitive Skin Soap Leaves Skin Clean And Comfortable
August 7th, 2020
If you have dry, sensitive, or irritated skin, finding ways to care for it and keep it clean without further irritation can be challenging. Consider using the sensitive skin soap by Basis. Dermatologists recommend it frequently to their patients with skin issues as it is a mild yet effective cleanser. Basis has produced a natural skin care product with its sensitive skin soap. Look at the short list of ingredients of the Basis Sensitive Skin Soap and you’ll find no harsh chemicals, dyes or artificial fragrances or perfumes. Instead, you’ll see cleansers of the mild variety, skin friendly aloe vera and chamomile as well as soothing and healing almond oil.
The ingredients are put together in such a way that a pure formula is produced; when used, it soothes, calms and gently cleanses even the most sensitive of skin. Besides the obvious benefit to skin, reviewers also reported other bonus features of the Basis Sensitive Skin Bar. Those weighing in their opinions on the bar soap said it had no strong fragrance that would irritate those with such sensitivities or allergies, but note the bar has a clean, mild soap smell. The bar soap also rinsed completely with no film or residue on the skin, plus produced very little soap scum to clean up in the shower or tub. Reviewers also said the bar lasted a good amount of time. If there were any negatives about this product, it would be that the bar is becoming harder to find and purchase, at least according to some viewers. Overall, though, reviews were overwhelmingly positive.
