Although allergic reactions to pure and natural ingredients are uncommon, we recommend reviewing ingredients and testing products on a small patch of skin. If redness or sensitivity occurs, discontinue use. Avoid contact with eyes. For external use, only.
* What is SLS and why doesn’t Life on Shackleton use it? SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) is a “surfactant.” This means it lowers the surface tension between ingredients. Synthetic foaming agents/surfactants can be drying and irritating to your skin. SLS also has the potential for bioaccumulation polluting ground water and causing harm to aquatic animals.
