Star ingredients:
QUINOA: Known by ancient Incans as “the mother of all grains", this gluten-free superfood revitalizes skin, promotes healing and moisture retention, and reduces signs of fatigue.
RAHUA (UNGURAHUA): Amazonian women have for eons depended on the oil from this tree nut to nurture and strengthen their skin. Filled with omega-9 fatty acids, it tones, calms, and smooths the skin and restores its natural moisture balance. Rahua uses Symbiotic®* Rahua.
ORGANIC HIBISCUS: These dramatic flowers are packed with the antioxidants known as anthocyanins and alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), which help to exfoliate, control oil production, and encourage fresher, younger, smoother skin.
PALO SANTO: Known as “holy wood” and prized by Amazonian shamans since the Incan era for its spiritual purifying properties, the essence of this wild tree is Rahua®’s signature scent. Its sophisticated, earthy aroma offers a soothing aromatherapy experience.
ORGANIC VANILLA: Original to ancient Mesoamerica, this orchid fruit provides an unmistakably warm, sweet scent and a potent source of polyphenols, which help to slow down skin aging.
LAVENDER: Prized around the world since ancient times, the smoky, herbal scent of this flowering plant (Rahua's is cultivated in France) calms the mind and soothes the senses.
*Symbiotic® is Rahua®’s signature standard. In order for an ingredient to be classified as Symbiotic®, it must be rainforest grown (wild) in undisturbed virgin forest, harvested and prepared using indigenous knowledge by people indigenous to the virgin forest environment, and it must be purchased at a price that helps to grow and sustain these traditions, build economies, and empower the indigenous people.
In the shower massage on damp skin, rinse repeat & enjoy.

Consumers are becoming more conscious of the ingredients in the cosmetics and personal care products that we are putting on our body. Many cosmetic labels claim that products are “natural,” “healthy,” and “safe,” but the government does not always really define or investigate the use of these terms on personal care and cosmetic labels.
So, what can a consumer look for on a cosmetic label or personal care label to make an informed decision about ingredients? With this topic more popular than ever, we state exactly how organic a product is, if it is certified, and what that certification actually means.
As you can see, we don't sell 100's of brands. The reason for this is that we continue to carefully make a selection of the enormous amount of brands to end up with what we consider to be THE top-quality, high-performing skin care, hair care, makeup, and mom & baby products out there, with the best ingredients nature has to offer, and made by ethical & passionate companies. We hope this will make it easier for you to choose.

Recommendation for purchase
It foams gently and it didn’t dry my skin out (I have been using the same milky shower cream for many years, regardless of the season, as all the shower gels I have tested so far have been too drying - I will stick to it during the winter months, but definitely intend to give the RAHUA Body Shower Gel a real go once the weather warms up).
The smell is light, slightly herb-like - it didn’t blow me away, unlike their Body Amazon Oil, which has a beautiful scent (and personally reminds me of Bulgarian rose and hyacinths, in a non-overwhelming way).
Also tried the gel out as a face wash, and while I prefer something a bit more hydrating (I currently use raw honey), it was gentle and my skin reacted well to it.
The price point is a bit steep, but it ...
I also love the smell, and you don't need much so a tube will last fairly long.
