Formulation view This hair spray bases on water and aloe juice, blending plant oils (sunflower, castor, coconut) and essential oils (lemon, bergamot). Cationic polymers and hydrolyzed proteins provide conditioning; panthenol moisturizes. Preserved with ethylhexylglycerin and caprylic acid. Suitable for dry, damaged, or curly hair to enhance shine and softness. Factory observation: Complex scent from multiple essential oils; some citrus oils are photosensitive, requiring caution for daytime use; high oil phase challenges emulsion stability.
