Unstress Your Tresses with this Celeb Secret from Leonor Greyl

Madonna, Gwen Stefani and Marc Jacobs change hair color like the rest of us change clothes, and yet, their hair always looks shiny and healthy.

The brand they turn to is luxe Leonor Greyl, which has been using natural ingredients since its inception in the 1960s before anyone even knew what a carbon footprint was. Now that green is the new black and a new all natural haircare line debuts every month, it's time to return to the roots - or should we say follicles - of natural haircare; Leonor Greyl has always recognized importance of using natural ingredients and still adheres to that philosophy today. All of the products are formulated with natural origin raw materials, many certified by Ecocert. They do not contain parabens, silicone, synthetic active ingredients or sodium laureth sulfate - all of which are known to be harmful to the body; in addition, the products are not tested on animals.

Their latest product, MASQUE QUINTESSENCE HAIR MASK, is the ultimate weapon for desperate hair; the last resort for the damage caused by sophisticated processes such as bleaching, highlighting, hair extensions, straightening, and perming, not to mention natural damage induced by the sun and just plain aging.

MASQUE QUINTESSENCE is formulated with Cupuaçu Oil from the Amazon and Manketti Oil from a protected tree located in northern Namibia. Cupuaçu Oil is a plant butter extracted from the Cupuaçu fruit and is not only incredibly hydrating, but retains water that is absorbed very slowly, and provides a time-release effect that moisturizes the hair fibers. Manketti Oil is rich in linoleic fatty acid, which promotes hair regeneration and restores texture.

Apply MASQUE QUINTESSENCE sparingly to dry hair before shampooing or use on damp hair after shampooing. Work thoroughly into hair lengths, strand by strand. Leave on for 10-20 minutes ideally, then rinse off, combing through hair during rinsing. It took a lifetime to wreck your locks, lady you can spare the time to repair them….
