Thieves Foaming Antibacterial Handsoap - with Thieves essential oil

Liquid hand soaps are a big trend in the personal care industry, particularly those with antibacterial properties; however, most soaps contain harmful chemicals and fragrances, leaving many searching for a natural, safe alternative. Thieves Foaming Hand Soap is formulated with natural ingredients, including the power of Thieves, which has been university tested and found to be highly effective against bacteria. This product has been dermatologist tested and found to be safe for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin.

Bacteria and viruses cannot mutate by using essential oils - their unique and complex make up is what still makes them effective today.

A natural hand-cleansing formula, Thieves Foaming Hand Soap contains Young Living’s Thieves essential oil blend, a potent combination of clove, cinnamon, rosemary, Eucalyptus radiata, orange, and lemon essential oils, all known for their powerful cleansing properties. Thieves essential oil blend penetrates deep beneath the skin’s surface, providing a long-lasting barrier of protection. This gentle foaming hand soap also contains ingredients such as vitamin E, aloe vera, and Ginkgo biloba to moisturize and soften the skin.

Primary Benefits

• The essential oils in Thieves penetrate deep into the skin to act as a protective barrier long after you wash your hands.

• Thieves Foaming Hand Soap is balanced mix of ingredients that reduces the disruption of the skin’s natural moisture complex and leaves important lipids in place to maintain a proper moisture balance in the skin.

• Vitamin E, aloe vera, and Gingko biloba are added to condition and protect the skin.

Who Should Use This Product?

Thieves Foaming Handsoap can be used by children and adults, including those with sensitive skin, for natural and effective cleansing.

I’m loving the Thieves handsoap, it’s nondrying to my skin. As a matter of fact, I’m even using it in the shower and I feel squeaky clean - which is a terrific feeling in the summer!

Did You Know?

• Eucalyptus radiata is primarily composed of eucalyptol, a substance shown to be very effective against bacteria in topical applications.

• Extra lemon essential oil is added to Thieves Foaming Hand Soap for its high level of d-limonene, a natural solvent, to help with the removal of dirt and germs, and because of its uplifting and fresh scent.

• Thieves Foaming Hand Soap’s primary surfactant, decyl glucoside, is derived from corn sugars and sugar beets, and is often used in products for sensitive skin.

Complementary Products

Thieves Household Cleaner and Thieves Spray

Surface cleaning is just as vital as hand washing in keeping your home clean and safe from illness. Thieves Household Cleaner (item #3743) and Thieves Spray (item #3265, or a 3 pack#3266) can be used to clean many surfaces in your home, including toilets, tubs, sinks, doorknobs, floors, and countertops.

I also like using the Thieves Spray to spritz my hands when I know I’ve come into contact with germs through shaking hands, handling money, touching doorknobs, shopping cats and other things that many people have been touching. If I feel a sore throat coming on I open my mouth and give my throat a spritz.

The Thieves Household Cleaner I use in place of every single cleaner and detergent in my home - yup, even in place of laundry and dish washer detergents.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q - I have heard that essential oils can be very drying to the skin. Will the essential oils contained in Thieves essential oil blend dry out my skin if I use this soap?

A - No, actually its effects are quite opposite. Because essential oils can be drying to the skin, specific ingredients such as aloe, vitamin E, and Ginkgo biloba were added to restore moisture.

Q - Why doesn’t Thieves Foaming Hand Soap have a thick lather like other foaming soaps?

A - Many people are under the impression that thicker lather means deeper cleaning, when in fact, it is primarily the other ingredients and not the lather that is cleaning the hands. The ingredients that cause soap to foam are called surfactants, and rich foaming surfactants are made from synthetic ingredients, which may be irritating to the skin. Thieves Foaming Hand Soap is formulated with natural surfactants, derived from sugar beets, so it gently and effectively cleanses the skin.

Q - What other Young Living products have the Thieves essential oil blend in them?

A - Dental Care (toothpaste and mouthwash) for adults and children, bar soap, wipes, and lozenges.
