Rapeseed-derived behentrimonium chloride conditions without the silicone buildup caused by dimethicone. Panthenol (Vitamin B5) penetrates the hair shaft and has documented humectant and cuticle-repair activity. Jojoba oil closely mimics the scalp's natural sebum. No synthetic fragrance, no PEG compounds.
✦ Ingredient Spotlight: Jojoba
Jojoba is a liquid wax ester with a molecular structure almost identical to human sebum. The skin absorbs it readily into the stratum corneum rather than leaving it on the surface. Non-comedogenic, stable for years without rancidity, and requires no preservatives when used as a base.
Apply to clean, damp hair after shampooing. Focus on mid-lengths to ends, avoiding the scalp if prone to oiliness. Leave for 2–3 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Detangle gently with a wide-tooth comb while the conditioner is in.
