Most often, when choosing shampoo, we primarily pay attention to an attractive long -haired girl, a beautiful label or brand. Cosmetics and perfumes manufacturers go to different tricks to win the largest audience and, accordingly, earn more cash. And we, of course, believe in colorful labels, posters and commercials. And how many of us read what is written on the other side of the bottle, as a rule, with small print and on Latin? So what is really inside this beautiful bottle? Let’s try to study its reverse side.
As part of the shampoo, all ingredients are indicated in the order of decreasing their number. Therefore, the first is always indicated water, which in liquid shampoos should be at least 80 %. If we talk about dry shampoo (and this really exists), then in it the amount of water is significantly less. The second on the list in the shampoo is the washing base – 15 %. Without this ingredient, shampoo cannot exist, because it is the superficial-active substance (surfactant), which is its basis, and rinses dirt and breaks down fats. If you want to choose a good and effective shampoo, then you should be careful so that sodium -sodium -sodium or ammonium -lurel sulfate is not used as a washing basis – rude cleaning agents used in mechanical engineering. They cause allergic reactions and are contraindicated to people with sensitive scalp. Unfortunately, unscrupulous manufacturers of shampoos very often use these funds, trying to save on production.
After the main substance, auxiliary usually go – cokkidopropilbutain and cocoglucoside. These are derivatives of coconut oil, which have moisturizing and mitigating properties, and therefore are absolutely safe.
The following are dyes and a variety of fragrances that give the shampoo that pleasant color and aroma that we enjoy when taking a shower. Of course, they do not bring benefits, but there is also no harm from them. Designate the dyes on the label of Latin letters CL, and the flavorings – the word Parfum. Well, at the very end of the list there are those very useful components, the skillful combination of which gives the expected result. The last 5 % includes fatty cosmetic oil (flaxseed, peach, almond, and so on), an oil solution of vitamins A and B, essential perfumes oil, vegetable extracts.
Thus, folk wisdom about what they are greeted by dressing, and escorted according to the mind is applicable to shampoo.
