5 widely prevalent myths around body washes

Myths and misconceptions can confuse the personal care industry, affecting consumer perception and choice.

Among the most widespread misconceptions about body washes that we all tend to believe are that they should only be used as part of a shower routine and not as a regular bucket bath, or that they should be used in large quantities for efficient cleaning and lathering.

As per IANS reports, ITC Vivel has dispelled some of the widely prevalent myths around body washes:

Myth 1: Body Wash should only be used with a loofah.

You might have heard that a loofah is a must-have for body wash. But here’s the thing – using your hands works just as well. It is all about what feels right for you and makes your bathing experience good!

Myth 2: Bodywash is needed in large amounts for every bath.

Now, the idea that you need to drown in body wash for proper cleansing is not true! Just follow the instructions given on the bottle. You do not need to use a lot of body wash for effective cleansing, just a coin size drop is enough to do the job well. Using too much body wash can lead to wastage and may not provide any additional benefit.
