ATTITUDE’s Kids Shampoo & Body Wash 2-in-1 in Vanilla & Pear is a product that aims to simplify bath time for parents while being gentle on children’s skin. It’s a two-in-one formula that cleanses both hair and body, and it’s marketed as being made with natural ingredients. In this review, we’ll look at how it performs in real-world use, its key features, and where it might fall short.
In daily life, this product is used during children’s bath time. A small amount is poured into the hand or a washcloth, lathered onto the body and hair, and then rinsed off. Because it’s a 2-in-1, it eliminates the need for separate shampoo and body wash, which can be a time-saver and reduces clutter in the bathroom. The 32 fl oz bottle is sizable, likely lasting several months with regular use, and it comes with a pump dispenser for easy access—a thoughtful design for slippery hands.
Functionally, the formula is designed to be tear-free and mild, suitable for children’s sensitive skin and hair. It contains plant-derived cleansing agents and is free from sulfates, parabens, and synthetic fragrances, according to the brand. The scent is a blend of vanilla and pear, which is light and pleasant, though some children might find it too subtle or too strong depending on preference. The consistency is relatively thin, so it spreads easily but may require more product to build a good lather, especially on longer hair.
One limitation is that while it’s gentle, it may not be effective enough for children with very oily hair or those who need a more thorough cleanse after heavy sweating or playing in dirt. In such cases, a dedicated shampoo might be necessary. Also, the 2-in-1 format means the formula is a compromise—it’s not as conditioning as a separate shampoo and conditioner, so hair might feel slightly drier or harder to comb, particularly for kids with curly or textured hair. Parents might need to follow up with a detangler or conditioner.
Compared to other kids’ bath products, such as those from brands like Johnson’s or Cetaphil, ATTITUDE’s offering stands out for its focus on natural ingredients and eco-certification. However, it’s priced higher than many mainstream options, which could be a barrier for budget-conscious families. The bottle is also made from recycled plastic, which is a plus for environmentally conscious consumers.
This product is suitable for parents looking for a convenient, gentle, and naturally-derived cleanser for their children’s bath routine. It’s particularly good for kids with normal to dry skin who don’t need heavy-duty cleansing. It’s not ideal for children with very sensitive skin or specific skin conditions like eczema, as even natural ingredients can sometimes cause reactions, and a pediatrician’s advice should be sought. Also, those who prefer separate shampoo and body wash for better performance might find this 2-in-1 lacking.
In terms of performance, it cleans effectively without leaving residue, and the scent is generally well-received. However, don’t expect it to miraculously detangle knots or leave hair silky—it’s a basic cleanser. The pump dispenser works well, but the bottle can become slippery when wet, so it’s best kept on a stable shelf.
Overall, ATTITUDE Kids Shampoo & Body Wash is a solid choice for families seeking a straightforward, gentle 2-in-1 product with natural ingredients. It has its trade-offs, but for many, the convenience and ingredient profile will outweigh the drawbacks.
