Plus this formulation is a good shampoo/conditioner combo to have in your rotation for those days when you don't have a lot of time to wash your hair. As a body wash it's fantastic, very moisturizing. So much so, you really don't need a shave gel. As a bubble bath, it's amazing. When you think a...
