Product overview
Description
Simple Moisturising Facial Wash (150ml) is a face wash from Simple, owned by Unilever. The official UK site lists this product under the name "Kind to Skin Moisturising Face Wash" -- confirmed as the same product via a matching barcode (05011451103870) referenced by an independent ingredient database.
Sourcing note -- ingredient-list conflict: the ingredient list below is taken from Simple's official UK site for the barcode-matched product. A separate third-party database (skinsignal.com) lists a different 26-ingredient panel for a similarly-named product that includes Methylparaben and Propylparaben, along with Chamomile and Geranium oils -- none of which appear on the official current list, which also includes several preservatives (e.g. Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate, Sodium Benzoate) absent from the third-party list. This likely reflects an older, since-reformulated version (paraben removal is a common industry reformulation trend) rather than a different product, but this could not be confirmed with certainty. The official Simple UK site's current list is treated as authoritative here, with the conflict disclosed rather than silently resolved.
