Boticário Match Science Reconstrução Rebuilding Shampoo – Smart Peptides & Amaranth Oil for Damaged Hair – 10.14 fl oz (300 ml)

Boticário Match Science Reconstrução Rebuilding Shampoo (300 ml / 10.14 fl oz) is the first step of O Boticário's Match. Science Reconstrução hair routine, created in Brazil for hair that has been weakened by heat, chemical services or everyday styling. It cleanses the lengths thoroughly without stripping them, so the fiber is left clean, soft and ready for the rebuilding steps that follow.

The formula pairs Smart Peptides with Amaranth (Amaranthus caudatus) seed extract. Together they help direct active ingredients to the damaged points along the strand, help replenish the protein the fiber has lost and help reduce the appearance of porosity and roughness, layer by layer.

Proudly Brazilian: developed and manufactured in Brazil by O Boticário, one of the country's most loved beauty houses. The shampoo is vegan, gentle enough for daily use, and hair feels silky and soft from the very first wash when used with the rest of the line.

Key Features:

• Prepares hair for reconstruction: cleanses the strands without drying them out, so the mask and leave-in steps of the routine can work on a clean fiber.
• Smart Peptides technology: helps guide the actives to the exact points where the fiber is damaged instead of coating it evenly.
• Amaranth seed extract: a Brazilian-loved botanical that helps replenish protein and supports the cortex of the hair.
• Helps reduce the appearance of roughness and porosity: strands look smoother and feel silkier immediately after rinsing.
• Stronger-feeling hair from the first use when combined with the full Match. Science Reconstrução line.
• Vegan and daily-use friendly: a lightweight lather suitable for washing as often as you need.
• Generous 300 ml (10.14 fl oz) bottle imported directly from Brazil.

How To Use

1. Wet your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water.
2. Apply the shampoo and massage gently through the scalp and lengths until it lathers.
3. Rinse well with plenty of water.
4. Repeat if your hair is very oily or heavily coated with styling product.
5. Follow with the rest of the Match. Science Reconstrução routine for the full rebuilding effect.

Expert Tip: massage with your fingertips rather than your nails, and concentrate the second lather on the mid-lengths and ends, where damage usually shows first. It can be used daily or whenever needed.
