SPA CEYLON, the best find of 2017! 

So, for those of you who doesn't know me that much, I am a organic lover, and the kind who wants to go green, chemical free, save the planet and of course myself. 😁

For the past 6 months I went No-Poo and No Conditioner mainly because Sri Lanka didn't have sulphate free shampoo or silicone free conditioner. (Well, I did find a conditioner that was SULPHATE FREE, but dude, that is not the point about conditioners????!!)

Every now and then I did cleanse using the African Black Soap which I got down from some African country, it was fair trade, and totally worth it. Diluted Apple cider vinegar did work as a conditioner, but no one said it was hassle free.

And last weekend, just out of boredom, I googled Silicone free conditioner in Sri Lanka, I wasn't even expecting a positive result, but imagine my reaction when Spa Ceylon pops up?! I KNOW RIGHT! 

And until then I never knew Spa Ceylon had Hair Care products, so after a through search, found this ideal for my hair type, and purchased it the very next day! And the even best part, ITS ORGANIC AND PARABEN, PARAFFIN, SILICONE, SULPHATE & ALCOHOL FREEEEEEE!

READ ON to find out what my first impressions are on using this product. 😃

Ingredients

Aqua, Aloe barbadensis (Aloe Vera), Cetyl Alcohol (from Palm), Mel (Honey), Palmitamidopropyltrimonium choloride (from Palm), Olive Oil, Virgin Coconut Oil, Wheatgerm Oil, Tocopherol (Natural Vitamin E from Soya),  Fragrance, Orange Peel Oil, Neroli Flower Oil, Bergamot Oil, Jasmine Flower extract, Phenoxyethanol, Disodium EDTA, Methylisothiazolinone (MIT) and methylchloroisothiazolinone. 

P.S. Methylisothiazolinone (MIT) and methylchloroisothiazolinone are preservatives that are usually sold and used as a mixture (trade name: Kathon CG). 

They are part of the ketone family, a group of organic compounds, and the –one at the end of their name can be confused with the –one found in the names of some silicones. 

These preservatives are water soluble.

Fragrance

For most of you who doesn't know, Neroli is aka Orange Blossom, when combined with Jasmine, it simply reminds me of Orange Cream Biscuits or Some luxurious After Shave.

It's like a perfume, with Neroli being the Top note and Jasmine the base, it's amazing how the various fragrances pop out at times. Sometimes it's the smell of Coconut, or Bergamot, or it's Jasmine.

Texture

Very thick, which makes the dispensing quite hard, but hey, you can always take the lid off.

Application

You require only a little cause it's thick, and unlike other conditioners, doesn't have that fake silky feel. It feels the same as it would when you apply oil instead. 

After

After Half Drying: My hair didn't feel light as usual, it felt like it was weighed down by water, loads of it, and that is good. 

After my hair was completely Dry:  Still the same, soft, hydrated and very less no frizz. (There is never zero frizz)

After 2 days: To test how long the results last, I didn't wash my hair for 2 days, and I was very impressed, even after  2 days, still hydrated, soft, less frizz, less volume and defined curls.

My Overall Rating: 4.5 / 5

Price: 1950 LKR for 250ml / 8.45 FL Oz (roughly around 13.15 US $)

Is it worth the price? It is tad bit expensive for a conditioner, but considering its properties, the end results and that it is readily available, I'd say the price is not bad.

But not everyone will be able to purchase it. Maybe their target customers are mostly foreigners.

I plan on using it only once a week, so for me, it will last longer. 😉

Even after 1 week, I'm still in love, and till I find another that could beat this in price and quality, this will be my favorite and go to conditioner.
