Key ingredients and their functions

  • Lanolin Cera - conditioning agent
  • Cetearyl Alcohol - emulsifying agent
  • Glycerin - humectant

  • Tribehenin - conditioning agent
  • Tridecyl Stearate - emollient

How it works

The formulation uses lanolin wax and cetearyl alcohol to condition and smoothly blend the product into the hair, providing texture and hold without stiffness. Glycerin helps retain moisture, enhancing hair manageability. Beeswax is a key styling agent that provides a flexible hold, allowing for reworking and defining hair shapes. Tribehenin and tridecyl stearate act as conditioning and emollient agents, contributing to a soft finish. VP/VA Copolymer forms a thin film on the hair surface, enhancing the hold's durability. Fragrance from tea tree oil imparts a mild, pleasant scent.
