The chemical structure of soap was solved by Michel Eugene Chevreul in the early 1800s. He unlocked the relationship of fats, glycerine and fatty acids. In 1916, German scientists, in response to World War I rationing, discovered syndets or synthetic detergents. These soap-free chemicals cleaned without combining with mineral salts to form soap scum. Syndets paved the way for creation of facial cleansing products. In 1970s, the Dove/Unilever company introduced fats and creams into soaps and invented the concept of the beauty bar. The cosmetic world literally exploded afterwards, with other companies creating their versions of bars for facial washing purposes. Later, as more syndets were developed, more ways to add fatty acids and lipids into soapy solutions led to the rise of facial cleansers of all forms- gels, creams and liquids.

Conclusion
With the advent of advanced technologies, newer cleansers are now being manufactured which are mild, provide moisturizing benefits and can be easily washed off. However many face wash products contain ingredients that are carcinogenic and have numerous side-effects. In SAVEPTRA face wash many such ingredients are absent like synthetic fragrances or perfume and benzoyl peroxide (for acne treatment). Our product contains ingredients which pose no side-effects and its main ingredients are absolutely herbal. SAVEPTRA face wash leaves behind a moisturized, absolutely clean and glowing skin.
