The Science Behind Silky Lemongrass 🌿
At the heart of our Shampoo and conditioner with a Purpose is Silky Oil Grass (Cymbopogon ambiguous), also known as Native Silky Lemongrass. This potent plant extract has been used in Aboriginal bush medicine for centuries, offering antioxidant, antimicrobial, and soothing properties.
Hair & Scalp Benefits:
💚 Strengthens & Hydrates – Rich in amino acids, supporting strong, smooth strands.
💚 Soothes Scalp Irritation – Anti-inflammatory properties help calm sensitivity.
💚 Balances Oil Production – keeps hair fresh without stripping natural moisture.
💚 Protects Against Free Radicals – Antioxidants shield hair from environmental damage.
Pairing Silky Lemongrass with lime essential oil, our formula revitalises the scalp, boosts shine, and enhances hair health without synthetic additives.
