Klorane Blond Highlights Shampoo with Chamomile (400ml)

Product Information

Our kind to skin shampoo contains no harsh chemicals that can upset your hair and scalp, no artificial colour or perfume and no animal-derived ingredients

Taking the form of a fine powder (which arrives in a cute plastic-free bottle), this shampoo might feel a little strange at first. However, it’s super-easy to activate: simply add a little water to powder equivalent to the size of a 10p coin, to form a soft and malleable paste.

How often should you wash your dog?

As with most essential oils, chamomile oil is extracted from chamomile plant flowers, using a process known as steam distillation . The Roman chamomile reportedly yields around 1.7 % of chamomile extract from fresh flowers and German chamomile yields between 0.2 and 0.4 %. 5 How long have people been using chamomile oil for? Chamomile goes by lots of different names - Chamomile (or Camomile), Roman chamomile, English chamomile, Garden chamomile, ground apple, low chamomile, mother's daisy, whig plant, to name but a few… 17 Again this is very dependent on the dog. “For a medicated shampoo I like ingredients such as chlorhexidine or selenium sulfate because they are excellent antimicrobials. If you’re looking for a good moisturising shampoo I recommend ingredients like colloidal oatmeal or ceramides.” Says Professor Miller.

Free of all nasties, the smell of grüum’s bar is comforting, the cocoa butter fragrance sweet without being cloying. And while we expected a bit of an oily finish because of the cocoa butter and coconut oil in the formula, we were amazed to find hair was left squeaky clean, without any hint of oily residue. Hair felt soft, light and shiny. A plant with multiple facets and properties, a versatile flower used since ancient times, chamomile is an essential active ingredient that can be used alone or in combination with others.Our hair felt super-clean and fresh after washing, and this wee bottle of powder delivers on the value for money front, too; the 55g here creates three times the volume of a conventional 250ml bottle of shampoo. It’s easy to travel with, too. Once relegated to the dark corners of health food shops, natural shampoos are now hitting the mainstream, with their devotees swearing by the benefits to the scalp and hair. Ingredients that are exclusively plant-based are thought to be more gentle and therefore better for the overall health and appearance of one’s hair. Not only that, but by opting for a shampoo made from only natural ingredients, you’ll be doing your bit for the planet too. Add 1 to 2 drops to your body lotion or moisturiser and rub the mixture into your skin. Alternatively, make a chamomile compress by soaking a cloth or towel in warm water and then adding 1 to 2 drops of diluted oil to it before applying. As a result of the natural credentials of this shampoo, including Marula oil and Icelandic moss, ingredients are prone to separating, so you’ll need to shake the bottle well before use. It’s gentle and kind to the hair and scalp: one wash and our hair looked instantly healthier, shiny and swishy – proper TV commercial stuff. It also boasts an amazing smell, which was stronger and fruitier than expected but a complete joy before, during and after a wash.
