SHAMPOOnormal and oily hair

Mild detergents on the basis of active ingredients identical to those of the body ensure particularly gentle shampooing. The amino acid L-proline, hyaluronic acid and betaine condition the hair, panthenol and lipids identical to those of the body care for the hair and scalp. Particularly suitable for long and short hair but also for fine and highlighted hair. Also highly recommended for men.

Further explanations of the ingredients:

Aqua:
Water. It makes up approximately 65% ​​of the weight of the human body and is therefore essential for bodily functions, including those of the skin. In many cosmetic products (aqueous solutions, cleansers, emulsions), water is the ingredient with the largest proportion of the formulation and forms the basis of the aqueous phase in emulsions. Water is a good solvent for polar (hydrophilic) substances such as alcohols, water-soluble vitamins, or salts. For use in cosmetic products, the water used is generally pre-treated to remove microorganisms that could lead to product spoilage or dissolved salts that might impair the stability of emulsions or gels (sterilization and desalination).

Glycerin:
Body-identical, a component of the natural moisturizing factor and lipids/triglycerides. Improves skin hydration, influences the consistency and texture of cosmetic products, and has antimicrobial properties.

Urea:
Water-soluble urea is used in numerous cosmetic products. Urea is a component of the natural moisturizing factors in the stratum corneum (content between 7% and 12%; up to half that in chronically dry skin) and has a high water-binding capacity. It contributes to sustained skin hydration and reduces transepidermal water loss. Urea has a keratoplastic effect, and at higher concentrations, a keratolytic effect, and is therefore also used in the care of skin affected by psoriasis or atopic dermatitis (eczema). Furthermore, urea is able to reduce the irritating potential of surfactants.

Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate:
It is composed of body-identical fatty acids and the body-identical amino acid glutamic acid. Used as a surfactant, a very mild cleaning agent.

Betaine:
Trimethylglycine: A metabolic product of choline breakdown, also used in medicine to regulate metabolism, is derived from beet molasses. A natural conditioner for skin and hair, it is a substance produced by the body and therefore very well tolerated. In case of allergy, it should not be combined with cocamidopropyl betaine.

Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate:
It is composed of body-identical fatty acids and the body-identical amino acid glutamic acid. Used as a surfactant, a very mild cleanser, it does not dry out the skin.

Panthenol:
D-Panthenol (Provitamin B5): Improves and increases the skin's moisture retention, has an anti-inflammatory effect, and soothes or inhibits itching. It stimulates epithelialization, allowing minor wounds (such as shaving), abrasions, and blisters to heal more quickly. It also promotes skin regeneration and combats cracked and brittle skin. When used in hair care products, it is not only deposited on the hair and scalp but also penetrates them, providing long-lasting effects. Since pantothenic acid is an important component of healthy hair, scientific studies have shown that its precursor, D-Panthenol, acts as "food for the hair." It provides long-lasting moisture, improves manageability, reduces split ends, improves the condition of damaged hair, thickens hair, and adds shine. It also reduces fingernail brittleness.

Proline:
L-Proline, sodium salt of pyrrolidine carboxylic acid, an amino acid, is one of the most important natural moisturizing factors on the skin; it is produced synthetically.

Lactic Acid:
Lactic acid. Occurs as a metabolic product in the body and on the skin; in higher concentrations and at a low pH value of 2 to 3, it has an exfoliating effect on the stratum corneum; in buffered form (physiological pH value of the skin approx. 5.5), it supports the moisture content and preserves the skin's acid mantle.

Sodium Hyaluronate:
Sodium salt of hyaluronic acid. A natural moisturizer with skin-smoothing properties, an important natural component of the lower layers of the skin (dermis). Formerly extracted from rooster combs, it is now produced biotechnologically in improved quality.
