Smell
I had several shampoos and conditioners from "The clean line", and can tell that all of them smell well – purity, naturalness, freshness. This shampoo – not an exception. The smell is pleasant, remains on hair for some time. To it there are no claims at all!Texture
Shampoo liquid, it not really is pleasant to me, it pours out on a palm in a large number at once. Color of shampoo – bright light green, such optimistic and quite natural though additional dye in structure is available.
Structure
What is 80% broth of a flax and curative herbs (a nettle, a yarrow, a celandine, a St. John's wort, a camomile) about which it is reported on packing? It means that shampoo for 80 percent consists of this broth. That is only 20% are the share of all other ingredients, and it is already good because in structure there are doubtful components. Namely:
- sodium laureth sulfate — lauretsulfat sodium; Surfactant not the most dangerous, but can cause irritation of eyes and an allergy.
- sodium chloride is sodium chloride (table salt); irritates eyes.
- PEG-7 Glyceryl cocoate – why this ingredient is listed as a part of the 2nd time in a row? Generally, it is safe in insignificant quantities, and here 2 times are a mistake or a hint what means is used in some double volume?
- Citronellol is citronellol; the fragrance forbidden in the territory of the European Union as strong allergen.
- Linalool is linalol; the irritating fragrance.
But even these doubtful ingredients are, most likely, in the minimum doses as all first half of the list are broths, oils, extracts, except for sodium laureth sulfate and sodium chloride.
Generally, from everything that I had to study by labels, is the best and natural structure though could be also more natural.
Application
Shampoo is well distributed on hair. There is not a lot of foam and if you got used to the foaming structures, you should apply repeatedly shampoo on hair and it is good to shake up them. The structure from hair quite easily is washed away, but it seemed to me that it was necessary to do it longer, than with other means. In general, repeated application and repeated rinsing with this shampoo are desirable as it seemed to me.Volume and force
The producer promises too much. The purposes at a product very ambitious:
To estimate all these properties of shampoo, they need to use not less than a month. What I also made. But I did not receive promised: hair did not become stronger, more dense and thicker. In my opinion, remained same as were.
The second disappointment was the fact that it is impossible to call shampoo volume. I did not see any additional volume. About 70% precisely it is impossible to claim. There is only a small effect of volume which is provided because shampoo does not make heavier hair big amount of silicones.
The promised 48 hours even this minimum volume does not keep. Hair though are not made heavier, but become fat with the same speed, as earlier.
I cannot tell that categorical something was not pleasant to me in this shampoo, but he with my hair also did not create special changes. And, of course, these upset groundless statements of "The clean line" for elasticity of hair and some "invisible framework" - there is definitely no it.
From good points it is possible to note a hair shine, lack of weighting, good aroma, fresh feelings.
