For many people myself included greener haircare that works is one of the most difficult things to find, I have tested countless shampoos and conditioners but very few become regulars in my routine. I have been testing out Italian Naturalmente haircare which has been getting great reviews since it arrived in the UK and I am pleased to say I am impressed with the products I have tried.
Naturalmente's green credentials mean that they use sustainable ingredients that are wild crafted or sourced from organic or biodynamic agriculture. The products are free from Sodium Lauryl Sulphate, animal ingredients, parabens, petrochemicals and synthetic fragrances. The packaging is completely biodegradable and can of course be recycled.
The Rosemary and Lavender shampoo* is beautifully scented and foams wonderfully, foaming agents can be an issue for my sensitive scalp but I had no issue whilst I was using this sample. I will be investing in the full size at some point to see how my hair likes this longer term. This leaves the hair really nice and clean and is easy to work in to my long hair something which was great, it was also enjoyable to use which can't be said for too many natural shampoos.
The Conditioner with Fruit acids* has quite a unique scent a mix of orange and mint and is quite thick, it leaves the hair really soft and smooth and makes the scalp tingle slightly due to the mint essential oil is is quite pleasant but took me by surprise the first time I used it. Despite it's thick texture this was easy to wash out and the combination of both products made my hair look great.
You can find Naturalmente exclusively at Gentle Body care in the UK and at £9 for 250 mls or the sample sizes starting at just £2.60 my interest has certainly been piqued enough to go back for more.
