LUSH Seanik Solid Shampoo Bar Reviews
#33 in Shampoo Bars

Description

Soften tangled locks and add oceans of shine with this mineral-rich, sea salt volumizing shampoo. Like a trip to a blue lagoon, Seanik is made with the best ingredients from the sea; softening Irish moss seaweed, and Japanese nori seaweed to make your hair soft as silk from root to tips, and sea salt to give body and volume to hair that’s fallen flat. One seriously sexy shampoo, we added lemon oil for extra shine, and the exotic far eastern fragrance of sensual mimosa and jasmine oils to bathe you in the heady scent of tropical flora all day long.

    Let me tell you about my hair first:
    I have dry, color-processed naturally wavy/curly hair that is just past my chin. It's fairly coarse, but I don't have a lot of it after countless times getting my hair thinned out. I'm lacking in volume.

    Using it:
    I wet my hair and run the bar three times over my hair, once on top, and once on each side of my head. I massage it into my roots and squeeze it gently through to the end of my hair, being sure not to rub as it creates tangles. I rinse and follow with conditioner. It cleans well, so I usually don't have to repeat the shampooing process.

    What I love about it:
    Okay, first of all, can I just say that it SMELLS AMAZING? The site lists it as being scented with mimosa and orange blossom. I personally can't pick out either of those scents, but I can definitely smell the Jasmine. The scent lingers really well, too. As for cleaning, it cleans amazingly. Almost too well for my dry hair, but I just remedy that by only shampooing once. It has sea salt for volume, and nori to nourish the hair. It honestly really reminds me of Big Shampoo in a solid form. Also, I love the packaging. As in, no packaging at all. Each shampoo bar replaces three 250 mL shampoo bottles, which I thought was great. And while this is completely unrelated to the bar itself, I love that the LUSH website lists all the ingredients with a link to a page with what they actually are.

    What I don't love about it:
    I do find it a bit drying at times, and I do wish it were a little bit cheaper, though it wouldn't stop me from buying it again.

    Ingredients: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Irish Moss Gel, Perfume, Nori Seaweed, Sea Salt, Lemon Oil, Mimosa Absolute, Orange Blossom Absolute, Jasmine Absolute, Cocamide DEA, Limonene, FD&C;Blue No. 1

    Overall, I think that the Seanik Solid Shampoo Bar is a great purchase at $9.95 CAN and I would definitely recommend that you try it if you enjoy fairly cheap natural products.

    I just wanted to let everyone know that I can no longer use this as my daily shampoo, as I need something to help deal with my dry itchy scalp. I still use this once weekly as my clarifying shampoo, and I find it works great for that usage as well. It really leaves my hair squeaky clean and my hair feels about ten times lighter.

    I also wanted to point out that it does contain SLS, as do a fair amount of their other shampoos. If you were looking to avoid sulfates, I probably would not recommend LUSH shampoos to you.
