It's a little known fact that soaps and shampoos contain
sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and
sodium laureth sulfate (SLES) are exactly the same chemicals you'll find in the dish soap you use to degrease your dirty dishes... In the same way as it dissolves the grease on fry pans,
sodium lauryl sulfate also dissolves the good and natural oils on your skin and scalp, which can
leave you with dry itchy skin.
