Everything you need to know about Philip Kingsley Swimcap Water Resistant Mask

Overview

What it is

The Swimcap Water Resistant Mask is a conditioning treatment designed to protect hair from the drying effects of chlorinated and salt water. It includes sunscreen to help maintain the color of treated hair and is formulated to avoid reactions with chlorine.

Key ingredients and their functions

  • Ricinus Communis Seed Oil - conditioning agent
  • Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil - conditioning agent
  • Propylene Glycol - moisturizing agent
  • Cetearyl Alcohol - emulsifier and thickener
  • Dimethicone - smoothing agent
  • Ethylhexyl Dimethyl PABA - UV filter
  • Glycerin - humectant
  • Cetrimonium Chloride - antistatic agent

How it works

The Swimcap Water Resistant Mask works by forming a protective layer on the hair, utilizing ingredients like dimethicone to smooth and coat the hair shaft, reducing friction and moisture loss. Conditioning agents like Ricinus Communis Seed Oil and Olea Europaea Fruit Oil help to hydrate and improve the manageability of the hair, while glycerin acts as a humectant, attracting moisture to the hair. The inclusion of Ethylhexyl Dimethyl PABA provides a UV filtering effect, aiming to protect hair color from fading when exposed to sunlight. Cetrimonium Chloride helps to reduce static and enhance the smoothness of hair, making this mask a suitable product for those seeking to mitigate the harsh impacts of swimming in chlorinated or salt water.
