lavera chose to use surfactants which have a superior washing power than the one present in the positive BDIH list (cocoamidopropyl betaïne and lauryol sarcosinate). Presence of lecithin helps to soft the hair fibre but ask an important washing power in order to obtain an efficiency cleaning effect with an optimal care.
The flour of guar and the panthénol are present in formula to obtain a nice shine and untangle hair easily. These 2 ingredients do not appear either on the BDIH positive list.
Formula are very soft, the shampoo cleans gently, the conditioner and the haircare leave a fruity delicate fragrance. Be reassured as for the certification: 4 ingredients mentioned above are authorized by the label Ecocert. It is just a question of politic certification.
