Sanex is a well-established personal care brand that has specialized in skin health since its inception in 1984. It was originally launched in Spain by the Sara Lee Corporation, revolutionizing the market as one of the first soap-free liquid bath and shower gels. The brand's philosophy focuses on keeping skin healthy by respecting its natural processes, a mission that has continued through several changes in ownership.
In 2009, Unilever acquired Sanex as part of its purchase of Sara Lee's personal care division. However, due to antitrust concerns raised by the European Commission regarding market dominance in the deodorant sector, Unilever was required to divest the brand. Consequently, in 2011, Sanex was sold to the American multinational Colgate-Palmolive. Today, Sanex products are produced in various locations across Europe and globally to serve its extensive market in European countries and South Africa. The product shown, from the Expert Skin Health line, features an advanced prebiotic complex designed to support the skin's natural microbiome.
