Ok, I am seriously impressed by this ingredients list. It has many emollients and cationic surfactants making it a perfect leave in conditioner. It also has a polymer high up on the list, so may give mild hold and work as a curl cream. It also has a tiny amount of arginine, an amino acid(protein).

Price: 625 INR. You can buy it here.

CG Friendly: Yes
Protein free: Has small quantities of an amino acid
Texture: Silky soft and luscious
Fragrance: Powdery. It is allergen free fragrance.
Performance: Absolutely love this leave in conditioner. It has amazing slip and provides amazing hydration to hair. It is lightweight and doesn’t weigh down hair.
