What's Not In It
Giovanni formulates this leave-in without harmful sulfates, parabens, mineral oil, propylene glycol, phthalates or artificial dyes. It's vegan, cruelty-free, and infused with natural botanical ingredients, including castor oil, in a recyclable jar. Leaving out sulfates and mineral oil in particular is worth noting if you've found those ingredients leave your hair feeling stripped or coated, since a formula without them tends to sit differently on the hair shaft.
Why Castor Oil In A Leave-In
Castor oil is a thick, emollient oil, so working it into a lightweight leave-in formula gives you its conditioning properties without the heavy, greasy feel of applying castor oil on its own. In this formula, it's combined with other natural botanical ingredients to help smooth the hair cuticle, which is part of how the product is designed to control frizz and ease detangling.
How To Use It
Distribute evenly through damp hair and style as desired. As a leave-in, it isn't rinsed out, so a little goes a long way, particularly if your hair is fine or you only need to target the mid-lengths and ends. If you find you're getting product buildup, try using less rather than switching to a heavier styling routine, since leave-ins are generally more effective applied sparingly to damp, not soaking wet, hair.
Who It Suits
This conditioner is formulated for all hair types, making it a straightforward option if you deal with frizz, tangles or dryness and want a lightweight leave-in rather than a heavier cream or oil. It's a practical everyday step for anyone who currently skips a leave-in altogether because past formulas have felt too heavy or greasy. It also pairs well with a castor oil shampoo if you're building out a full castor oil hair care routine.
