Kiss My Face Anti-stress Bath and Shower Gel, Moisturizing Body Wash, Value Size 32 oz (845074-400)

Bottle cake half full with a broken pump

I got this as a more natural replacement for the conventional body wash that my boyfriend was using and so far we really like using it, but I am a little bummed out that I didn't check the ingredients more closely because I try to avoid controversial ingredients like Phenoxyethanol, which is generally used as a preservative. That is just my preference though, so I'm going to review this soap not taking that into account since many people consider it safe. (EWG gives this soap a 4 on their scale if that makes a difference to anyone.) At least it doesn't have any sulfates, pthalates, or parabens!I have to say I haven't noticed any real "stress relief" from this anti-stress product, but maybe I would be a raving stress mess if I didn't use it! Probably shouldn't test that though. ;) We do love the mellow scent that just barely lingers on the skin after rinsing, but I don't think it smells much like pine at all...it seems much closer to a citrusy fir tree. Either way the the scent never lingers strongly enough to give a headache like some of the chemical fragrances can. We're split on whether it lathers well but I think that's because I'm basically used to more natural soap that doesn't have an intense lather where he has been using soaps with Sodium Laurel Sulfate and other lathering agents so it seems less sudsy to him but I think it soaps up perfectly fine. It does rinse off our skin well and doesn't leave a noticeable residue in the shower. The pump is very convenient and this large bottle will easily last us more than a month of daily showers. I probably won't buy it again because there are other options out there that better align with my personal preferences, but it's still a much better option than a vast majority of the soaps on the market.

I’ve liked this shower gel for 15 years now. I’ve never found another that’s anywhere near as good. I hate using anything else and hope o never need to……so, KISS MY FACE - Please never, ever, EVER discontinue this scent in your shower gel line.

Love the scent. do not buy it often. The price has gone up way to high.

I have used this bath and shower gel before, and was very pleased to order this hard-to-find item, especially in such a large size. The scent is so pleasing!Unfortunately, it leaked in the package. No idea exactly how much was lost, but I had to clean up the bottle which was wet and sticky from the leakage.I think a little more care in packaging (i.e. chocking the top so it can't move in case it's bumped or compressed during shipping) would be in order.

This is a fantastic shower gel. Does not contain SLS, Parabens, Petrolatum, Mineral oil - now THAT is hard to find - these toxic chemicals are pervasive in almost all cosmetic products these days. Contains wonderful natural ingredients like Aloe, plant extracts and natural oils. I have tried scores of shower gels (including designer ones like Armani, Burberry, YSL). Some clean exceptionally well, some smell exquisite BUT this is the one I found to be the best for skin. In spite of not containing the surfactant Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (or Sodium Laureth Sulfate or Ammonium Lauryl sulfate) - this cleans wonderfully. Most importantly this leaves the skin feeling healthy, cared for and detoxed. The smell is of natural Pine and so this is not for people who are looking for heavily scented cologne like fragrance from a shower gel. If skin health is a prime concern when choosing a shower gel than this is the best I have come across. HOWEVER, this particular money saver 32 OZ pack, for some reason has the contents extremely watery as compared to the regular 16 Oz packs available here and at health stores like Wholefoods. So I returned the 32 Oz bottle and went back to the 16 Oz bottle. Apart from this, this Gel is one of the best you will find if you are looking for a green (environment friendly), natural, effective and safe skin care productUPDATE and CAVEAT - 29th May 2016 - The formula for this product has changed since this review was written. The new formulation evidently has more artificial ingredients and lesser of the beneficial natural ingredients than the original. I have not tried the new formula

I have used kiss my face products before and like them, and needed some new shower gel. I though, hey let me try one of their products. Lately I have been suffering from aggravating adult acne like crazy. I used this stuff ONCE, and withing MINUTES after my shower, I could see the red acne areas literally almost before my eyes, start to soften and become vary less irritated, with in three days they were completely healed. I mean this stuff isn't even promoted as an acne cleanser or anything, I read some reviews and other have said the same thing.Modern body washes and soaps have so many toxins that they wreak havoc on your skin, this all "natural" gel helps and aids your skin and immune system, that must be why the acnes (immune related) responds so great to the stuff.Also if you are a guy, and don't want a "sissy" smelling shower gel, this is it! No smell, and work awesome, and your can even shave with it if you want.

I've been trying to get this stuff for three years, because people raved about the pine scent. Every time I find it online it's already sold out. Physical stores have other scents but not this one. So, maybe I was expecting too much, but I'm underwhelmed. The scent is faint, and more floral than pine. No trace of scent once it's rinsed. Doesn't really lather. Leaves skin dry. It's not terrible. Just... behaves like a dollar store shower gel. It's cruelty free, and I'm willing to sacrifice quality for that, so I'll use what I bought, but won't buy it again.

POSITIVE : Way better then existing big bang Indian brands in terms of harshness.NEGATIVES :> Contains sulphate (SODIUM COCA SULPHATE)> The perfume which stuns you in the first place is accompanied by yet another additive PHENOXYETAHNOL, both are toxic in nature.I regret buying this costly product simply on the terms of botanical or herbal points.Was surprised to see the above chemicals on the ingredients label.Will never shop for this companys products in future.One can go through the details of the above chemicals on safecosmetics.org or just google them individually.

I like to alternate between this and the Patchulli
