Hydrate and repair your dry and damaged hair with our nutrient packed Sea Buckthorn & Orange conditioner bar.

Made to smooth and nourish your dry and damaged hair, our Sea Buckthorn & Orange conditioner bar is suitable for hair with split ends and hair damaged by heat and colour treatments. With nourishing sea buckthorn oil, luxurious cocoa and mango butters; this conditioner bar will help repair and moisturise your dry, damaged hair, adding shine to lacklustre locks.

We have chosen to add a fruity blend of sweet orange, lemongrass and palmarosa essential oils to this conditioner bar for an uplifting zesty fragrance, alongside their refreshing, rejuvenating properties.

Sea Buckthorn & Orange Conditioner Bar is VEGAN friendly.

Minimum weight 50g in an aluminium tin (or refill style wax paper bag). Please reuse or recycle your tin.

How to use your conditioner bar:

Use after shampooing your hair. Apply the bar directly to the ends of your wet hair a few times in sweeping motions following the hair shaft downwards.  Alternatively, rub the bar in your wet hands to produce the conditioner and apply this to your hair with your hands. Rinse hair thoroughly.

The conditioner is a concentrated product, so you may be surprised how little you need to apply. It might take a couple of washes to get the hang of how much to use.

Please allow your conditioner bar to dry between uses, to make sure it lasts as long as possible. Do not store in the tin unless completely dry. Leaving the bar in a puddle of water will make it dissolve and disappear quickly. We recommend using a wire shower shelf to allow the air to circulate around your bars between uses.

Top tip: We keep a comb in the shower to brush the conditioner through and detangle hair.

Some of the ingredients we have chosen include:

Sea Buckthorn Oil has the botanical name Hippophae, from the Greek meaning “shiny horse” as the leaves, fruit and branches were historically fed to Greek horses, making their coats exceptionally shiny and healthy. Indigenous to Europe and the East, buckthorn is a traditional source of food, medicine and skincare. Both the berries and seeds produce a rich orange oil packed full of vitamins, minerals and nutrients including omegas 3 and 6 essential fatty acids, vitamins B1, B2, E and K. It’s no surprise it’s one of our favourites here at Boo!

Palmarosa Essential Oil is a sweetly floral yet fruity oil which is related to lemongrass and citronella, although it lacks their sharp citrus fragrance. It is balancing and hydrating, helping to rejuvenate dry or tired skin and helps control sebum production in oily skin.

Cocoa Butter is a solid, brittle butter that is pressed from the cocoa bean. Cocoa butter has emollient properties that prevent moisture loss by leaving a fine lipid barrier when applied to skin or hair. It is a nourishing, yet dry feeling butter and has a chocolate scent in its raw form.

Panthenol is also known as pro-vitamin B5, a strengthening and moisturising conditioner for the hair.  It acts as a humectant, absorbing moisture from the air and penetrates deep into the hair shaft, improving resistance to mechanical stress. It also has anti-inflammatory properties which make it soothing for sensitive or irritated skin.

Brassicyl Isoleucinate Esylate, Brassica Alcoholis a conditioning agent derived from broccoli seed oil.  Often conditioner bars contain BTMS-25 or BTMS-50 (Behentrimonium Methosulfate (and) Cetearyl Alcohol) that is usually derived from palm oil. Our chosen conditioner is derived from fermentation of broccoli seed oil using sustainable green chemistry principles. It doesn’t include or use any solvents or petrochemicals at any stage of manufacture.

Isoamyl Laurate, Isoamyl Cocoate is a totally natural and biodegradable emollient which is made from coconuts and sugar beet. It is used as a natural alternative to silicones to help detangle and create soft smooth hair.

Benzyl Alcohol, Salicylic Acid, Glycerin, Sorbic Acid is a naturally derived broad spectrum preservative blend that has ECOCERT and COSMOS status (meaning it is certified as natural / organic). We think it’s really important to include a preservative in all our shampoo and conditioner bars as they are designed to get wet and could easily grow bacteria and mould in your shower.
