This formula relies on a concentrated botanical antimicrobial approach, utilizing tea tree and eucalyptus oils in a soap-based delivery system. While effective for reducing localized surface itching and providing strong deodorizing properties for athletic use, the alkaline nature of the base can disrupt the skin's natural surface mantle. This may lead to post-wash dryness or xerosis. Sodium laureth sulfate is included, providing high stripping potential that requires careful use on reactive skin.
Users note significant reports of stinging on contact, particularly on compromised skin barriers. The medicinal scent is potent and may be overpowering for some. To counteract significant moisture loss, it is recommended to follow treatment with a lipid-restoring barrier cream to prevent secondary surface issues. The product is effective at clearing surface congestion but serves as a functional tool rather than a moisturizing wash.
