Pears isn’t completely organic. It contains synthetic lab-made or plant-derived chemicals like propylene glycol, BHT, and Tetrasodium EDTA. These chemicals aid in better absorption, maintaining chemical stability, and function as preservatives respectively. Jones, Geoffrey (1 February 2008). "Blonde and blue-eyed? Globalizing beauty, c.1945–c.1980" (PDF). The Economic History Review. 61 (1): 125–154. doi: 10.1111/j.1468-0289.2007.00388.x. JSTOR 40057559. S2CID 154339826 . Retrieved 14 February 2023.Each bar is sealed in a clear sealed bag so as to keep it fresh as the day it was first produced at Hindustan Unilever factory The latest 2009 modification mainly breaks down to an addition of artificial colouring and substances whose hypothetical function is either as detergents (i.e., cleaning substances) or stabilisers (i.e., product longevity enhancers). However, even the pre-2009 formula was a far cry from the original one. The latter was completely free of industrial cleaners, free of synthetic colours and (apparently) free of synthetic odorants, whose place was occupied by natural herbal fragrances. However, one unknown in the original formula is the "Pears fragrance essence": because of it, the customer cannot be certain whether the "new" fragrant compounds are indeed all new—or simply formerly unlisted items.

From the late 19th century, Pears soap became famous for its marketing, masterminded by Barratt. Its campaign using John Everett Millais' painting Bubbles continued over many decades. As with many other brands at the time, at the beginning of the 20th century, Pears also used its product as a sign of the prevailing European concept of the " civilizing mission" of empire and trade, in which the soap stood for progress. The labelling requirement is linked to the presence of the substance in concentrations higher than the above-mentioned thresholds, irrespective of the substance’s function and irrespective of its source (i.e., whether added as such or as a component of a complex cosmetic ingredient such as botanical extracts, essential oils, fragrance compositions, aroma composition etc.). Unilever was required to list those of the 26 specific ingredients that were in Pears in concentrations greater than 0.01%. Benzyl benzoate, Cinnamal, Eugenol, Limonene and Linalool were included in the labelling because they are among the ingredients covered by Directive 2003/15/EC. It is therefore possible that they were components of the original formula, rather than newly added ingredients. [15] [16] 2009 change [ edit ] A bar of Pears 'Gentle Care' soap. The Pears formula is meant to moisturize, not whiten. It may remove some blemishes or scars. But that may just be a natural process.Both compounds of palm oil are safe for use. But it may cause itching on temperamental skin. Does Pears soap contain lye? At the same time, it does contain ingredients of moderate concern. They are better avoided, because of possible side effects. Even though Pears is very tender, its pH is very alkaline. Baby skin pH is even more delicate. An alkaline soap can cause redness, allergies, inflammation, etc. The soap is labeled hypoallergenic. But ingredients like colorants and glycol ethers can cause breathing problems. Lillie Langtry became the first woman to endorse a commercial product, when her famous ivory complexion gained her a contract to advertise Pears soap. Her fee was related to her weight, so it was said that she was paid " pound for pound". If you like our Transparent Soap Bar then why not try our Shower Gel or our Liquid Hand Wash?
