QV Wash , 500ml

QV Wash is a soap-free cleanser for sensitive and dry skin, used on the face and body. Soap is alkaline and strips the skin's own protective layer, which is why people with dry or reactive skin often find their skin feels worse after washing than before. A soap-free wash cleans without that effect, and QV built its whole range around the principle.

It is a common recommendation for eczema-prone skin and for anyone told to stop using ordinary shower gel.

Benefits

• Soap-free and pH balanced, so it cleans without stripping the skin's protective layer
• No fragrance or colour, which removes the two most common triggers in a wash-off product
• One product for the whole family, including children, which simplifies the bathroom
• A 500ml pump is a realistic size for whole-body daily use rather than running out mid-month
• Water temperature matters as much as the product. Lukewarm rather than hot makes a real difference to dry skin
