Jason Pure Natural Hand Soap - Purifying Tea Tree (473 mL)

Jason Pure Natural Hand Soap in Purifying Tea Tree is a liquid hand and face soap in a 473 mL pump bottle, made with certified organic Australian tea tree leaf oil. Like the rest of the range it is made without sodium lauryl or laureth sulfates. Jason calls it a satin soap: it is a little thicker than most pump soaps and is meant to be used sparingly.

What is in it

Tea tree leaf oil comes from the Australian Melaleuca alternifolia plant and gives the soap its fresh, slightly medicinal scent. It sits alongside certified organic aloe vera leaf juice, olive fruit oil and sunflower seed oil, and organic extracts of chamomile, calendula, lavender and St. John's wort, plus sage extract.

The cleansing comes from cocamidopropyl betaine and sodium lauryl sulfoacetate, two mild surfactants. Jason leaves out sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium laureth sulfate, the harsher foaming agents used in many liquid soaps. Glycerin, panthenol (provitamin B5), allantoin and vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate) round out the formula, and it is preserved with benzyl alcohol, potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate rather than parabens.

Scent

The scent is led by tea tree and rounded out with essential oils; Jason names jasmine, orange blossom and eucalyptus. Fragrance components listed on the label include amyl cinnamal, benzyl salicylate, citronellol, hexyl cinnamal and isoeugenol, which matters if you avoid specific scent ingredients.

How to use it

Pump a small amount into wet hands, wash as usual and rinse well. Jason describes it as a concentrated satin soap for face and hands, so one pump goes a long way. The 473 mL bottle has its own pump; when it runs low you can refill it from a larger soap bottle and keep the pump.

Who it suits

It suits people who like a herbal, outdoorsy scent at the sink and want a pump soap without SLS or SLES. Tea tree oil has a strong smell, so anyone sensitive to fragrance or essential oils may want to patch test it first.

The Jason Pure Natural hand soap range

Jason makes its Pure Natural Hand Soap in several botanical scents, each in the same 473 mL pump bottle and the same sulfate-free base. The brand also makes body washes, shampoos and conditioners in matching aloe vera and tea tree lines, if you like one scent across the shower and the sink.
