“This one is new to my repertoire but I am obsessed. My hair tends to be on the drier side whilst also being fine, but this creme tames any frizzy fly aways + smooths dry ends so well, without adding heaviness or oiliness. Usually leave-in products make my hair need washing sooner but not this.. plus it smells like heaven. Living Libations continues to be my all-time favourite beauty skincare brand.” — Katie

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I use this as a leave-in crème if I have fine hair that weighs down easily?
Yes, absolutely. Unlike conventional conditioners that rely on heavy synthetic silicones and plastics to coat the hair, our Calendula Comfort Conditioner is formulated with lightweight, biomimetic Jojoba ceramides and Macadamia lipids. These whole-plant botanical oils absorb into the hair shaft rather than sitting on top of it, giving fine hair weightless bounce, hydration, and frizz control without limpness or greasy residue.
How does this formula help define curls and waves naturally?
Synthetic curl creams use synthetic polymers (essentially liquid plastics) to “glue” hair strands together into stiff curls. The Herbaceous Halo naturally aligns and shapes your curls by nurturing the hair cuticle from the inside out. Succulent seaweeds and moisture-locking Aloe Vera plump each strand, revealing your mane’s elasticity and structure for soft, bouncy definition.
What is the best way to use this product as a deep-conditioning spa mask?
Apply from root to tip after shampooing. Wrap your hair in a warm towel or shower cap and let the botanical bioactives saturate your crown for 15 minutes before rinsing. For a moisture reset, leave in hair overnight and rinse in the morning to reveal silkified, luminous strands.
Is this conditioner safe to use as a protective styling cream on dry hair?
Yes! You can smooth a tiny, dime-sized dab onto dry strands and tips anytime throughout the day to instantly tame static, smooth flyaways, and seal split ends. It provides a silken, protective shield from environmental stressors while leaving locks beautifully scented with a fresh, herbaceous aroma.
