Protex Antibacterial Soap
Protex Antibacterial Soap is a cleansing bar designed for everyday personal hygiene. Protex is a personal-care brand associated with Colgate-Palmolive and is sold in different soap varieties and formulations in markets around the world.
This product can be used as part of a regular hand-washing and bathing routine. Because Protex formulas, fragrances, package sizes and product claims can vary between countries and varieties, customers should always check the current wrapper for the specific information that applies to the soap they receive.
Everyday Hand and Body Cleansing
Bar soap provides a convenient way to remove everyday dirt, oils and other material from the skin during washing. Protex soap can be lathered with water and used on the hands or body according to the directions provided on the package.
For regular washing, wet the skin and soap bar with clean water. Work the soap into a lather, cleanse the desired area and rinse thoroughly. After use, place the bar on a draining soap dish so that it can dry between washes.
About Protex Soap
The Protex brand includes personal-cleansing products sold in a number of countries. Different versions may feature different fragrances, colors, ingredients and packaging. Some Protex products may also carry specific antibacterial or hygiene-related claims depending on their formulation and the market in which they are sold.
For that reason, shoppers should rely on the label of the particular product they receive rather than assuming that every Protex bar has exactly the same formulation or product claims.
How to Use Protex Antibacterial Soap
For normal personal cleansing:
- Wet your hands or body with clean water.
- Wet the soap bar and work it into a lather.
- Gently wash the desired area.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Place the soap on a well-drained soap dish after use.
Avoid direct contact with the eyes. If soap enters the eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water. If irritation develops or persists, discontinue use and follow the directions provided on the current product package.
Ingredients and Formulation
Ingredients can differ between Protex varieties and can also change when a manufacturer updates a formulation. For this reason, this page does not present one ingredient list as though it applies to every version of Protex soap.
If you have an allergy or sensitivity to fragrances, dyes or other cosmetic ingredients, read the ingredient list printed on the wrapper before using the product. The current package is the best source for formulation information for the particular bar you receive.
Product Varieties and Packaging
Protex soaps may be offered in different colors, fragrances, sizes and package designs. Availability can also change according to current inventory and the market from which the product was supplied.
Product photographs are provided to help identify the item, but packaging can be redesigned over time. A package that looks somewhat different from an older photograph does not necessarily indicate that it is a different product. Check the name, size and other information on the current wrapper.
Storage and Care
Store unopened soap bars in a cool, dry location away from excessive moisture. Once a bar has been opened, allowing it to drain and dry between uses can prevent it from becoming unnecessarily soft and may help the bar last longer.
Keep personal-care products appropriately stored and follow any warnings, precautions or directions printed by the manufacturer.
Good Hand-Washing Practices
Soap works best when combined with proper washing technique. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends washing hands with clean running water and soap, lathering thoroughly and scrubbing for at least 20 seconds before rinsing.
