Personal care products (PCPs) are commonly utilized for purposes of personal hygiene, grooming, cleaning, and enhancing one's appearance. This category encompasses a wide range of items, including hair & skincare products, UV protection creams, facial cleansers, insect repellents, fragrances, perfumes, soaps, detergents, shampoos, conditioners, and toothpaste.

As per a 2021 article from the National Center for Biotechnology Information, PCPs belong to the class of self-care items primarily employed for personal hygiene, cleanliness, and grooming. Globally, approximately 30-40% of dermatological prescriptions include a PCP and an average person utilizes at least two PCPs within a span of 24 hours.

Soap plays a vital role in skin care, serving as an essential tool to maintain cleanliness and overall health. According to Consumer Reports, an organization involved in product and service testing, when considering bath products, consumers often have distinct preferences.
