Shower Gels
Description and products: shower gels are body cleansers meant to be used in the shower. Shower gels contain synthetic or plant-based detergents and have a lower pH than normal soaps. This causes the skin to dry out less after use. Shower gels have more similarities to Body Washes than to Soaps, both in function and ingredients, except for the texture. Body washes tend to have a more fluid soapy consistency, where shower gels tend to have a firmer, more gel-like structure. Shower gels come in a wide range of formulations. Some are just for cleaning the skin, others contain some skin conditioning agents, and some can even be used as shampoos and facial cleansers.
Trends and ingredients: not many people realize that taking a shower might be the only time during a day that you do not use your phone. This might be one of the reasons that marketeers introduced luxurious shower gels, which help to create a moment for yourself with exotic scents and nice lather. As with many other personal care products, formulators try to find milder, more natural and safe ingredients. IngreCore offers a wide range of shower gel ingredients such as Guar VH17, IngreSil EMU60 or Polyquaternium 22.
