There is a MLM trick to show you why that shokobutt whatever is a lousy shower cream.
You fill half a cup with the showercream. Throw in 1 tablespoons of salt and use a chopstick to stir it around a bit.
You will find the cream reacting to the salt and turns almost into concrete.
Now imagine, your pores open to sweat out, and you apply the shower cream on those pores. What does the sweat contains? It will react and clog up your pores.
Thus your toxins are trapped in your body and not effectively sweated out. Thus you feel 'heated'. (Dont ask me, thats my mothers explanation; but that demo with that cream and salt was conducted before my eyes. So I believed it.)
