Rosemary and Eucalyptus Solid Shampoo or Conditioner Bars

Rosemary and Eucalyptus Solid (zero-waste) Shampoo or Conditioner Bars

If you're looking for a solid shampoo bar that cleans AND imparts a refreshing amount of moisture to your hair, we have these delightful bars to offer! Made with awesome ingredients, sulfate free, vegan, they have stuff like Italian green clay, shea butter, veggie keratin, silk peptides...and now, with biotin and bamboo extract to strengthen and gently cleanse your beautiful hair!

They are ecologically friendly, wrapped in glassine-paper (no wax, no plastic!) and with biodegradable labels, too! With these, there are no plastic bottles to go into a landfill. No plastic bottles to end up in the ocean. :) Just an eco-friendly bar of great shampoo or conditioner, in eco-friendly paper!

The ingredients in our solid shampoo bars are as close to nature as we could come, while still providing a great product that our clients have asked for. If you've ever used these pressed-type bars (called SynDet bars, well known and popular with major makers), you know that they are extremely similar to bottled shampoo in retail stores. The main difference is that our bars contain NO water whatsoever. You just wet your hair and apply! Work it in... they lather up extremely well. Then rinse! They smell WONDERFUL, and last a really long time. Try to be sure you keep these bars out of standing water -- if you allow the bar to dry (or be in a dry place) after using, and it will last much longer. Using a soap rack between uses is highly recommended.

All of our products are made in small batches, which allows us to control the wonderful quality of all our products. We use the best of everything, never cutting corners on quality or materials. In this shampoo, we use great stuff like illipe butter, shea butter, cocoa butter or cupuacu butter, to impart a very gentle moisture without greasiness. We also use DL Panthenol -- pro-Vitamin B-5 -- for a sleek silkiness that feels glorious and looks wonderful. We also use an organically-sourced SLSA, for great lather! Many of our shampoo bar types use organic clays, or infused oils -- like this one with nettle infused extra virgin olive oil -- and other fabulous, natural ingredients.

Shampoo:
For this shampoo bar, we used Italian green clay and nettle-infused extra virgin olive oil, both of which are superbly renowned for their love of hair and scalp! We used organic-grown, powdered rosemary, as well, which is just... mmmm. Wonderful stuff for hair! Silk peptides, vitamin E oil and veggie keratin top this one, along with biotin and bamboo extract, to strengthen and silken your tresses! The essential oils--the only scent in this -- are that of Australian eucalyptus and Spanish rosemary. We LOVE this one. The lather, the scent, the shiny, full hair... yummy!

Conditioner:
My conditioner bars contain some lovely ingredients. A couple of these are called BTMS 25 and 50 -- the common name for Behentrimonium Methosulfate. This is a NON-sulfate, despite its name, derived from rapeseed oil. Prized for its effective detangling abilities, it’s able to penetrate the hair shaft making it an excellent moisturizer and conditioner, while remaining gentle on the hair and skin, without coating the scalp or causing buildup. It’s also has hair thickening properties. Also, I use various butters and oils, each of which have wonderful properties. I use veggie-derived keratin, silk peptides, and vitamin E! I also use Pro-Vitamin B-5 (DL Panthenol) which leaves hair healthier, shinier, and with a great silky feel. It combs out beautifully when wet from washing, and dries with a really pleasant, silky feel. And last but not least, we now have biotin and bamboo extract in these bars! And...for this Rosemary and Eucalyptus conditioner, we used the absolutely wonderful nettle infused extra virgin olive oil. The scent is so pleasant; a bright, herbal eucalyptus with fresh rosemary.

The shampoo bars weigh 3 oz, and the conditioner just over 2 oz. Keep the bars out of standing water, and allow to dry between uses for best, longest lasting results. The shampoo bar typically lasts a quite bit longer than a typical 16 oz bottle of shampoo, and the conditioner bar lasts longer even than that, typically.

To use the shampoo, wet hair, rub the bar over your hair, and lather it up. I follow up with a "rinse and repeat." Apply conditioner bar to very wet hair for best results. Water activates the bar. You can add as much or as little as you like. It goes on pretty well, but if you like a LOT of conditioner, just take your time in applying.

As we said above, our goal is to provide eco-friendly products, which won't add anything more to landfills or the ocean, so we package our bars in fully biodegradable paper.
