Shampoo, shower gel or 3-in-1? Check what it is for.
A few similar bottles soon collect on the bathroom shelf. One is a shampoo, one a shower gel, and one promises several uses. The product name together with the manufacturer’s directions tells you what each one is for.
Shampoo is mainly for washing hair
With Karavaki, for example, you will see names such as Nutrition & Hydration or Care & Repair. These are the manufacturer’s variant names; they do not replace checking the ingredients and directions.
Shower gel is for cleansing the body
Shower gels come in many sizes, scents and brands. A pump bottle can be convenient, but the packaging itself says nothing about the formula.
What does multi-purpose mean?
2-in-1 and 3-in-1 mean the manufacturer intends the product for more than one use. Exactly which uses is stated on the label – not every 3-in-1 is the same.
Making the choice easier
If you only want to wash your hair, start with shampoos. For a shower gel, look in Body & hair care. For multi-purpose products, read the full manufacturer description.
