Formulation view Repair shampoo combining SLES and betaine for cleansing, with ammonium chloride for pH and foam control. Argania oil, jojoba, and plant extracts nourish damaged hair. Pantothenate aids penetration. Preservation uses sodium benzoate and EDTA chelation. Suitable for damaged or dry hair. Factory observation: essential oil-based plant extracts require assessment for photosensitivity and batch stability.

Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate
- Common anionic surfactant, strong foam but drying; check cationic compatibility, high eye irritation
- Ammonium Chloride
- Ammonium chloride as buffer, foam modifier, and viscosity control in shaving foams and cleansers, slightly acidic pH
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Ceramide-3
- Not decoded yet
- Hydrogenated Lecithin
- Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions
- Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil
- Jojoba oil rich in unsaturated fats; good penetration, non-comedogenic, prone to oxidation requiring antioxidants
- Persea Gratissima Oil
- Avocado oil rich in fatty acids and vitamin E; occlusive moisturizer, use with caution on oily skin.
- Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil
- Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.
- Gentiana Lutea Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Achillea Millefolium Extract
- Yarrow extract; chrysogenic content for soothing; contains essential oil components, assess phototoxicity and allergens
- Artemisia Absinthium Extract
- Artemisia extract for conditioning; terpenes present, photosensitizing, caution for day use, avoid strong acids.
- Arnica Montana Flower Extract
- Arnica extract; plant soothing/perfume alternative; low conc, potential sensitizer, patch test advised
- Leontopodium Alpinum Extract
- Edelweiss extract; flavonoid-rich skin conditioner; scarce raw material, high cost, verify batch consistency
- Cocamide Mea
- Foam booster and thickener for cleansing products; 1-3%, check compatibility with anionic surfactants
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Trihydroxystearin
- Polyol thickener and humectant; water-soluble, improves viscosity and basic conditioning
- Synthetic Fluorphlogopite
- Mica filler at 1-10%; luster/thickening, inert, verify mineral purity, no public comedogenic data.
- Titanium Dioxide
- Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention
- Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride
- Cationic guar derivative for antistatic, film-forming, viscosity control; common in hair/skin conditioning
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Disodium Edta
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
- Parfum/Fragrance
- Blended fragrance for odor; contains 26 restricted allergens, use caution in sensitive/child/eye products, verify compliance.
