I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green. Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...
Thoughts:
- When they mention that the shampoo is mild and suitable for everyday use... well... that's exactly what it is. I feel like I have to wash my hair everyday... twice, and still not feeling clean!
- I don't think it works for oily kind of dandruff/dryness (yes, sounds weird but it is a condition), my mother tried and immediately went back to her own products
- Couldn't use conditioner with the shampoo because my hair felt even dirtier and heavier after washing it
- The light shampoo might be difficult to work into thick hair
+ Smells nice! Very refreshing, gingery, but not too much
+ Doesn't strip anything out of your hair and scalp and that's how they advertise the shampoo (just wasn't suitable for me at the moment)
+ I stopped using conditioner when washing with this shampoo so I guess it's moisturizing too for those who need it

* Liquidy gel like consistency instead of creamy.
* Can't comment on the anti-dandruff part, as I don't have much dandruff. I just picked this shampoo because some bloggers had talked about it saying it was good. I do wonder how a mild shampoo like this can lift dandruff off, especially if it's the oily kind.
* Even my husband complained about this shampoo not being good enough and usually he never comments on anything! And he has dry-ish and flaking scalp.
* Please do notice that I bought something that wasn't even advertised for my kind of hair/scalp so no wonder it didn't work. However sometimes things work miraculously even though the name of the product is whatever so I decided to try!
Price:
15 € / 400 ml
Bought from:
The Body Shop webstore
Buy again?
Definitely no.
Worth the money?
Not for me, even on sale. Runs out quickly because I have to use to much, so often, and I'm still not pleased with the results. A lot cheaper shampoos deliver better results (like L'Oreal's Elvitals at 3-6 €). However, if you have a dry hair/scalp and you are used to washing your hair daily, maybe give this a go? I do think this could've worked nicely when I was bleaching my hair but even then I didn't have flakiness.
