Wash Nut /Soap Nut Shell Natural Hair Tonic

Saamia Impex’s Soap Nuts

It is a natural alternative to the chemical detergent for soft washing. All the chemical detergent works on the principle of reducing the surface tension of the water and oil which causes the dirt of the clothes to exit from it. The soap nut shell contains and releases the saponins (soap) when it comes in contact with warm or hot water. Agitation further releases these saponins. The saponins then circulate as a natural surfactant (surface active ingredient). They break down the surface tension between water and oil in the wash water reducing the surface tension of the water aiding it in freeing dirt, grime and oils from clothes.
