Let’s take a closer look at our ingredients and understand why we use them.
Fragrances

SILICONES
Why do we use them?
Silicones are used in many hair care products. They are an essential ingredient in addressing many hair needs, including conditioning the hair, making it feel bouncier and easier to comb, taming frizz, adding shine, and preventing damage and breakage.
What do the experts say?
Various health authorities around the world and our safety scientists agree that silicones are safe to use. So, the next time someone asks you, "are silicones bad for your hair?" you can safely say no.
If you prefer to use a hair product free from silicones, we recommend using our Botanique Hemp Hydration & Coconut Nourish ranges.
SODIUM LAURYL SULPHATE AND SODIUM LAURYL ETHER SULPHATE (SLS & SLES)
Why do we use them?
Sodium Lauryl Sulphate and Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate (SLS and SLES), are important cleansing ingredients, often simply referred to as sulphates. These ingredients are key to giving you that everyday fresh feeling by helping to create a nice lather that effectively removes dirt from your hair.
What do the experts say?
SLS and SLES have an excellent safety record and have been used in cosmetic products for many years. Scientific reviews by the independent US Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel found SLES and SLS to be safe in cosmetics.
While prolonged contact with these sulphates directly on the skin may cause some people to experience irritation, we only formulate our products so that they give you the satisfying lather you need, with minimal chance of any irritation.
If you prefer to use a hair product free from sulphates, we recommend using we recommend using our Botanique Hemp Hydration & Coconut Nourish ranges.
ALCOHOL
Why do we use it?
We use alcohol in a number of our hairspray products. Alcohol is needed to help provide the perfect hold for your hair style without compromising on its natural movement.
Some people prefer to use alcohol-free hairsprays as, when used in high concentrations, it can dry out the hair. However, we use minimal amounts that evaporate quickly in order to reduce the chance of hair becoming dry.
COCONUT
Why do we use it?
Coconut is the fruit of the coconut palm and is found in various forms, including water, oil and milk. We use coconut within our products to help condition, prevent damage and breakage and add softness to your hair. Our Botanique Coconut Nourish Shampoo range uses coconut oil. In this range, coconut oil replaces an ingredient called Silicone to help condition your hair, making it feel soft and smooth.
