I’m not so sure about this, but somehow, it reminds me of the infamous (and hilarious) “Mr. Bubble” letter exchange.
I’ve often wondered if that’s why the manufacturer went to a liquid form.

I’ve often thought the Greeks had better ideas about cleaning the body than we do. After getting all obnoxiously sweaty at the gymnasium, or gay fornicatorium, whatever, they would cover themselves in oil and scrape it off with a stick.
The point is that a rinse in plain water gets rid of the water soluble refuse, and we use soap to get rid of the nonpolar refuse. Yet that dries the skin terribly, as one finds out if you take more than one shower a day (e.g. before work and after the gym). Using clean oil to dissolve the oily stuff makes more sense, because it doesn’t get dry the skin.
Of course, leaving aside the expense, you end up smelling like olives. Probably that’s an advantage for some people, I dunno.
Carl, for some of us adding oil to the skin is an even worse idea than drying it out.
Ewww, McG. Words fail me.
Well some people have oily skin. Like me. And we live in humid climates like Florida where dryness isn’t exactly a problem (it’s more of a long-dreamed-of, rarely-attained goal).
I forgot to add — the only dry shampoo I was aware of was the stuff in the plain, medicinal label that states it’s for bedridden people. I had a friend who used to throw talcum powder in her hair when she had no time to wash it. Otherwise I was unaware this product had gone designer.
