Organic Jaguar Natural Body Wash
Summary
Organic Jaguar Natural Body Wash scores 94/100 -- a genuinely clean body wash built around Decyl Glucoside, the cleanest broadly-effective surfactant in commercial use (the same one BASED Body Wash uses, EWG 1). Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate is a mild lactic-acid ester (EWG 1-2, often confused by name with SLS but chemically distinct -- it's a coconut/lactic-acid coupling, not an anhydrous sulfate). The supporting payload is fully plant-derived: Aloe Vera Gel, Jojoba Oil, Unrefined Shea Butter, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Citric Acid as pH adjuster. Zero sulfates (no SLS/SLES), zero parabens, zero phthalates, zero silicones, zero PEGs, zero synthetic fragrance, zero phenoxyethanol, zero MCI/MIT, zero EDTA. Available in 4 variants (Unscented, Honeysuckle, Jasmine, Peppermint Rosemary) -- variants use essential oils, not synthetic fragrance. Packaged in biodegradable wheat-straw bottles. Veteran-owned independent family business.
