Formulation view Custard-style hair gel using Poliquaternionums for hold, enriched with botanical extracts and honey for shine. Silanetriol provides anti-static benefits. Complex preservation system includes MIT/CIT. Ideal for curl definition. Factory view: Multi-agent preservation increases compatibility challenges; high-sensitizing MIT/CIT requires strict limit control and labeling to avoid contact dermatitis in sensitive users.
