Ethique The Guardian Conditioner Bar For Dry Hair 60g

€16.99

  • Safe for colour treated hair
  • Deeply hydrating for dry and/or damaged hair
  • This bar prevents 5 plastic bottles from being made and disposed of and saves 5.1 litres of water.

Going plastic free has been just about the biggest headline in beauty news over recent years. We are all very keenly aware of the need to minimise waste, especially when it comes to our plastic wrapped beauty products.

But while abandoning bottles might feel fairly doable when you have short, manageable hair, it can be a whole other challenge if your mane is more abundant, a tad unruly or prone to dryness and breakage.

Ethique’s The Guardian conditioner bar is formulated for those among us who require more than just a simple morning rinse and rub dry.

Safe for use on colour treated hair, The Guardian is a deeply hydrating solid conditioner designed to help make dry and damaged hair more manageable.

This cardboard packaged solid bar is also completely plastic free, preventing five plastic bottles from being made and disposed of and saving 5.1L of water. And, for that matter, saving space in your shower rack.

Will this conditioner bar work with my hair?
For those of us with curly, frizzy and thick hair finding the right hair products can be a minefield.

Many products are too dense and oily, others just can’t penetrate the hair in the way you really need them to.

Generic shampoos, conditioners and styling products are a no-no and your bathroom cupboard is probably overflowing with failed wonder products that just did not live up to the hype or the price tag.

Ethique knows that we are all different and that is why their range of plastic-free shampoo and conditioner bars includes a whole array of options, including The Guardian, a solid conditioner bar for very dry, very damaged or very frizzy hair.

The Guardian contains plenty of highly conditioning coconut oil, a must for curls and waves, as well as zesty, refreshing lime oil.

This lightweight, tropical hair conditioner bar also serves up a dose of vitamin B5, otherwise known as pantothenic acid, to help smooth and tame damaged hair.

How to use Ethique The Guardian
Part of the beauty of this Ethique conditioner bar – aside from the fact that it minimises your plastic waste – is its ease of use.

After shampooing, simply slide the bar smoothly over your hair, massage gently in and leave for just a couple of minutes to let it really do its job while you relax.

As an added bonus The Guardian can also be used as a shaving bar or an in-shower moisturiser, helping to minimise the products you need for your daily shower routine.

How ethical is Ethique?
Paying more than just lip service to the environmental cause, the Ethique brand is about more than just plastic free shampoo and conditioner.

Founded in New Zealand back in 2012, way before plastic-free was really a ‘thing’, Ethique is a proudly certified sustainable and climate positive business, offsetting 120% of their carbon emissions as of March 2021.

Ethique hair and body care products are not just free of plastic, they are also palm oil-free and completely vegan too.

Best conditioner ever!

I would never have believed that a bar conditioner would be so perfect, but this one is! Wonderful, silky, soft hair--I'll never go back to chemical conditioners.

Winning Combo

My hair was so dry I needed something to smooth out the frizz. The Guardian nourishing conditioner bar combined with the Mintasy bar did a great job of smoothing it out. I absolutely love the ethique bars and am happy to be helping out the environment at the same time. What

Just the right amount of condition!

Great for my fine hair and even for my granddaughter's easily tangled hair! Doesn't weigh my hair down and was a great detangler for her hair. The lime scent is very subtle, but lovely.
