Floractive Rosemary & Green Tea Mask 250g

A weekly treatment mask for hair gone weak and fragile — the kind that snaps at the comb and looks thin through the ends. It is a cosmetic conditioning treatment: it works on the strands you already have, on how they feel, handle and look.

What's in it

• Rosemary extract (Rosmarinus officinalis) and green tea extract (Camellia sinensis) — the botanicals the range is named for.
• Argan oil and castor seed oil (Ricinus communis) — conditioning oils, castor the heavier of the two and useful on dry ends.
• Panthenol — provitamin B5, a humectant drawing moisture into the fibre and improving flexibility.
• Tocopheryl acetate and tocopherol — vitamin E, working as conditioner and antioxidant.
• Polyquaternium-7 and cetrimonium chloride — the conditioning agents giving the mask its slip.

Worth knowing

Five minutes on mid-lengths and ends, once or twice a week, keeping it off the scalp. Alternate it with the matching Revitalising Conditioner rather than using both in one wash. Where a mask genuinely helps fragile hair is mechanical: less friction while combing means less breakage from handling.
