Shampoo Bars - Ocean

Sudsy Moose

$13.00

Out of stock

A deliciously fresh ocean scent with notes of ozone, citrus and a hint of rosemary essential oil.

Shampoo bars are not soap - they are made from synthetic cleansers, which have a natural base.  Read more in my blog here. Suitable for normal-dry hair. It is recommended that you still use a conditioner afterwards if your hair is very dry.  Don't be fooled by their size - they last a long time. 

Three sizes available: Regular 50g min, Regular Plus 60g min, or Large 65g min.  Please select desired size from the dropdown menu and note price change with your selection

Instructions: Simply rub over wet hair and lather as usual, then rinse out. I find it lathers better by using lots of water. Best results are achieved by shampooing twice.  

BE INFORMED - Many shampoo bars on the market today still use sulphates which are known to be quite harsh on your hair.  Go on - check your current brand right now and see if the first or second ingredient is sodium laurel sulphate, sodium laureth sulphate or sodium coco sulphate. 

My special formula is achieved by not using some of the harsh chemicals out there that are in all the mainstream products - no sulphates, parabens, phthalates or other nasties. One ingredient in particular often found in other commercial products - cocamidopropyl betaine - has been purposefully left out of this recipe as it is known to be an irritant to sensitive skin types.
