LA BIOSTHETIQUE Protective Softening Shampoo 250ml

A 250 ml micellar shampoo from La Biosthétique's Long Hair range. Micelles cleanse by attracting dirt and oil rather than by stripping, which is the difference that matters on long hair — lengths that are months or years old cannot afford a harsh wash every few days.

The actives

• Glycolipid micelles — deep but gentle cleansing, acting like a magnet for dirt particles.
• Cationic guar — balances out structural differences from the moment you start washing, improving combability.
• Sugar beet betaine — gives hair natural moisture and leaves it soft.

How to use it

Distribute evenly onto hair and scalp, massage in, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with the Protective Repair Mask on the lengths when the ends need more than a conditioner.

Worth knowing

Paraben-free, silicone-free and vegan. The formula uses wheat-derived ingredients, which is worth knowing if you avoid wheat in what you put on your skin.
