New Colet Earth haircare is 100pc natural and 100pc Irish. The products contain a rich variety of Irish organic herbal infusions including Irish lavender, Irish sap moss, Irish hawthorn berries, Irish mint, dandelion and nettle root. These herb extracts are combined with shea butter and vitamin E to create luxurious and highly effective formulations that rehydrate and nourish the hair while regulating the scalp.
The brand works with some of the country's leading herb gardens, who grow a range of different herbs specially for Colet Earth. Suppliers include Lissadell House, Co Sligo -- the childhood home of Constance Markievicz -- and Kilgraney House, Co Carlow. The shampoos and conditioners contain no harsh preservatives or petrochemicals, are free from paraben and are not tested on animals.
Through buying Colet Earth you are also doing good, as 10pc of net profits will be donated to the Irish Cancer Society. All Colet Earth products are a very affordable €4.99 each, and are available from Tesco, SuperValu, Spar and select pharmacies.
