Herbal Essences Rose Scent Shampoo 350ml is a rose-scented shampoo for dry hair, sold by some retailers as Rose Scent Petal Soft Shampoo. It is made without silicones and is vegan, and is used as an everyday wash-and-rinse shampoo followed by conditioner. If you want a rose-scented shampoo without silicones, this one is built for that.

Key Features

• Rose scent: Infused with real rose essences, according to retailer product descriptions of the brand's copy.
• For dry hair: Sold as a shampoo to nourish dry hair.
• Silicone-free and vegan: The formula is described as silicone free and vegan.
• Cleansing base: Contains sodium laureth sulfate and cocamidopropyl betaine as surfactants, so it is not a sulfate-free shampoo.

Does it contain fragrance allergens?

The ingredients list includes parfum (fragrance) and hexyl cinnamal, a fragrance ingredient. Check the full ingredients list if you know you are sensitive to fragrance ingredients.
