Yes, our design and testing from authorised laboratories shows that we need not add any preservative for our flagship products, i.e. the OLEIC series of hair-wash and body washes.

3) Immediately start applying the soap gently on your body.

4) Wash off.

Note:

You may experience your hair feeling a little sticky in the beginning of the application. Nothing to worry about this! This is when the apple cider vinegar is closing your hair cuticles. By the second application you will start realising the sticky feeling is soon disappearing and the hair developing a silky tone. There is a dedicated article on how apple cider vinegar achieves a dual function of pH control and conditioning. Please consider referring to this article.

This is a detergent free product. So do not expect much lather. Please note that there is no relation between cleansing action and amount of lather.
