The 100 points
We split Detox Shampoo into 3 standout parts. Each bar shows what the build earns.
The cleansing system sets how the shampoo lathers and how hard it washes. Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate, Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine do this job here.
Humectants (Glycerin, Propylene Glycol) pull in water and keep the hair feeling soft.
Cationic conditioning polymers cling to wet hair and cut tangles. Hydroxypropyl Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride, Polyquaternium-7 play that role here.
