WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS IN MOXĒ PREMIUM HAND SOAP?

by Fernando Martinez

At MOXĒ, we believe personal care should not be ambiguous or complicated. We set out to make a premium hand soap made with simple, naturally derived ingredients that you can understand. 

Staying true to our values, we believe in total transparency and we promise to always provide you with all the information you need to make decisions for what goes on your body. 

We’ve constantly challenged ourselves to create clean, natural formulations with eco-conscious ingredients whenever possible, and have never tested on any of our animal friends.

When it comes to so-called premium hand soaps available on the market we often have to choose between ingredient quality and affordability. Sighs. 

We believe you shouldn't have to choose between ingredient quality and affordability so we developed our own right in our in-house lab. 

After months of testing and formulating, and more testing...MOXĒ launched four premium hand soap inspired by natural oils and plant extracts.

Here is a breakdown of ingredients of your favorite hand soap! 

Distilled Water

You know this one! Water is essential for all living things and is often the first ingredient in many cosmetic and personal care products.

We use distilled water since it has all ions or metals removed to help maintain product effectiveness. 

Water is a solvent that helps us dissolve all our ingredients together. 

Alpha Olefin Sulfonate

Alpha Olefin Sulfonate is our main cleanser as its mild anionic, high-foaming & well-emulsifying properties make it a great substitute to lauryl sulfates.

It has a pale yellow color and made primarily from coconut oils without over drying skin. 

This strong cleansing agent helps lift dirt and oils from your skins and its allows it to be washed away with water. Say bye-bye dirt and hello clean!

Coco Betaine

Cocamidopropyl Betaine in moxe premium hand soap

Cocamidopropyl betaine is a surfactant derived from coconut oil and helps our hand soap to mix with dirt and oils to be easily washed off with water. 

This ingredient acts as a skin conditioner, leaving behind a moisturized feeling after rinsing with no feeling of tightness. 

Decyl Glucoside 

decyl glucoside ingredient in moxe hand soap

Decyl Glucoside is a biodegradable nonionic surfactant derived from Cocos nucifera (coconut). 

Decyl glucoside is produced by the reaction of glucose from corn starch with the fatty alcohol decanol which is derived from coconut.

Fun fact: Glycerin can be used as a preservative if used at 50% or higher in a formula, but who wants such a sticky product? Not us!
