Cioccolatina Argan & Cocoa Butter Liquid Shampoo Review

Image borrowed from http://www.sheabuttercottage.co.uk/
Rating: 5/5, available in 30-100ml bottles from Shea butter cottage for £2.85-£5.35 (+ p&p)

This shampoo is from Akua Wood's Cioccolatina range. If this is your first time stopping by we wrote a review about Sheabutter cottage a few months back, if you are interested in learning a bit more about them click here.

This product is not tested on animals, is fair trade and is handmade. On top of that it is free from sulfates, cocamidopropyl betaine, cocamide DEA and Borax, making it a lovely addition to our natural and healthy bathroom pantry.

One mistake that you shouldn't make with this shampoo is to use it after using a hair mask. This shampoo is very nourishing, if you use a hair mask...like we may have done, ahem...it will leave your hair greasy. It is strictly wash-and-go. It even mentions it in the product description. Now, if you use this as directed - without a hair mask - then it will leave your hair bouncy and clean, and we've found that it intensifies your hair colour.

You only need a small amount, it doesn't lather up as much as an Urtekram shampoo but that is no matter once you have seen the results! Atlas cedarwood and lavender are listed as the ingredients, which makes this a brilliant unisex shampoo. The resulting scent isn't too overpowering and your hair maintains a lovely sheen until the next wash.

Warning: the site states that this is not to be used during pregnancy.
