Welsh organic beauty brand, Conscious Skincare, has recently launched several new products including this enticing Cypress and Sage haircare duo which I've been testing out over the past couple of weeks.
I've been a fan of Conscious Skincare for a number of years now, and I love their simple, but effective, formulas which are packed full of beneficial organic and natural ingredients. Their products are cruelty-free and free from a range of 'nasties' such as SLS, Sulphates, Parabens, Phthalates, Synthetic Chemical Preservatives, Colours and Fillers. Their eco-friendly and recyclable packaging also seems to reflect their green stance, with a clean and simplistic design. Although I've used several Conscious Skincare products in the past, these have all been from their skincare and body care ranges, so this the first time I've tried their haircare. Here's are my thoughts!
Conscious Skincare Cypress and Sage Organic Shampoo* (250ml, £11, link)
Described as being full of 'hair-loving' ingredients, this Organic Shampoo uses ProVitamin B5 as one of its key actives which helps to nourish the hair and protect it against everyday stresses. It's a great ingredient to use in hair care and something that really does make a difference whenever I see it included in a shampoo or conditioner. Alongside B5, there's the pre-biotic Inulin that is a natural foodstuff for good bacteria to munch on, helping to create a happy and balanced environment on your scalp, and Jojoba Oil which deeply nourishes, hydrates and adds shine for swish-worthy hair. This shampoo has a lovely fresh, earthy and invigorating scent thanks to a combination of Cypress, Sage and Lavender Essential Oils (which all have their own individual benefits as well - they're not just included for their scent!), and it spreads easily over wet hair, for a blissfully deep cleanse. Suitable for all hair types, it left mine clean (without the squeakiness), refreshed and with a glossy shine - wonderful!
Conscious Skincare Cypress and Sage Organic Conditioner* (250ml, £11, link)
I often struggle to find conditioners that are hydrating enough for my dry hair, but thankfully this matching Cypress and Sage one is definitely one of the best that I've tried for daily or regular use. Packed full of nourishing ingredients such as Organic Coconut Oil, Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil and Olive Oil, it manages to moisturise and strengthen, whilst not weighing down my fine hair. It may be a little too rich for oily hair though, but I imagine this would work well for most other hair types. I absolutely adore the Cypress and Sage scent too - the more I use it, the more I love it!

Do you use SLS-free haircare?
I always use SLS-free haircare these days and I'm very tempted by this - forever looking for more cruelty-free British brands to try! xx
