Why Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) & Sodium Laureth Sulfate Free?

Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS),& sodium laureth sulfate (SLES) are garage floor cleaners. They are very corrosive and irritate the skin. Recent research suggests that SLS & SLES damages hair follicles, making them brittle and thus the hair thinner. SLS & SLES shampoo irritates the skin and often causes dandruff. SLS & SLES often causes oilier hair; as SLS & SLES strips the natural oil from the scalp and dries the skin, our glands then produce more oils to compensate. Another concern is that when SLS & SLES is combined with other chemicals, often in shampoo, they change their properties and become carcinogenic. Our shampoo uses a mild but effect sugar derived from cornstarch and coconuts.  This surfactant has  obtains a "0" from the safe cosmetic data base for hazard ingredient rating. (Rating goes from 0-10, 0 the safest and 10 the worse offender.)

I have always loved healthy hair, especially long hair.   All Natural Creations Shampoos was the most difficult products to develop.  I had used many types of shampoo from the health industry for years, after researching ingredients I found that most shampoo in the health industry were not much cleaner than the grocery stores. 

In the beginning I used herbs and then diluted castile soap. I like the herbs infused into water as a great option but I never had them time to keep up on the infusions.  Next I learn to make a liquid soap, then a shampoo formula, my husband loved it, I did not.  It is a clean product but did cause burning if gotten into the eyes.  I spent 2008 working with a hair salon refining our shampoo for her customers. Finally after 3 years I am very proud of our Free and Clean Shampoo Line.  A preservative is used, it is the safest I have found available with the Environmental Working Group, however I am working to provide our shampoo without commercial preservative by the end of 2009.
