Product Description
Conscious Living Body Wash is based on probiotic principles rather than the concept of anti-bacterial agents. Beneficial microflora, antioxidant fruit enzymes and naturally occurring saponin from soap nuts combine to form a synergistic “brew” which helps maintain the natural PH balance of the skin, enhances the protective layer on the surface of the skin, making it resistant and more impenetrable to harmful pathogens as well as killing body odors caused by bad bacteria.
I purchased Conscious Living Body Wash together with Verdant Lab Honeysuckle Amber Nourishing Shampoo from a zero-waste store where I can bring my own bottles to refill the contents, in order to do away with the packaging. Unfortunately, I am not sure if its cost-effective in the long run, as I can't remember the price which I purchased at.
Made in Thailand, Conscious Living products combine ancient Thai herbal wisdom with the modern understanding of how beneficial micro-flora can bring healing to both body and environment. The presence of life promoting beneficial microbes reinforces enzyme activity, supporting and developing antioxidant and increasing natural cleansing and medicinal properties in their products. The probiotic concept serves to increase the natural defense against bad bacteria while helping restore a positive microbial balance to the environment. You can read more about the brand on their website.
Packaging, Scent and Texture
I brought along empty Sachajuan 100ml bottles to refill Conscious Living Body Wash as it was the perfect size for me to try out new products, however it wasn't the best fit for it. The texture was pretty runny so there would be some wastage during dispensing it, as the contents would drip from the tiny gap. The natural scent smells lovely - not as fruity as I thought it would be, though.
Performance and Ingredients
Conscious Living Body Wash lathers well, with a lovely natural scent. The contents are runny and cleans well. However, after about 40% used up, the body wash started to get drying for my skin type so thankfully, I didn't get a large bottle .
Conscious Living Body Wash uses naturally occurring saponin found in soapnuts as surfactant ( bubbles in soaps ). Extractions of beneficial elements from plant or fruits are fermented, eliminating the need for shelf life extension chemical preservatives like Paraben. Pineapple and citrus fruits possess anti-oxidant enzymes that function as a natural degreaser and deodorizer. Their natural medicinal properties gently cleanse without the need to use harmful chemicals.

Conclusion
To conclude, Conscious Living Body Wash has a lovely scent with runny contents, lathers well but started to get drying after 40% used up hence it won't be a repurchase.
