Boticário Match Ciência das Curvas Low-Poo Curl Shampoo – Sulfate & Silicone-Free Cleansing with 7-Oil Blend for Curls 2A to 4C – 10.14 fl oz (300 ml)

Boticário Match Ciência das Curvas Low-Poo Curl Shampoo – 10.14 fl oz (300 ml) is a Brazilian curl-care essential, co-created and approved by women with wavy, curly and coily hair so that every curl pattern from 2A to 4C is taken into account. Made in Brazil by O Boticário, it delivers an effective yet hydrating cleanse that helps avoid the stripped, squeaky feeling left behind by harsher shampoos.

The formula is 100% low-poo approved: no sulfates, no parabens, no silicones and no salt. A high-yield vegan base lifts away buildup, excess oil and product residue, while a 99.6% naturally derived blend of seven oils helps keep curls soft, springy and comfortable from the very first wash.

Brazil is home to some of the world's most devoted curly-hair routines, and Match. Ciência das Curvas was developed there with exactly that in mind. A fresh, comforting fragrance and a rich, easy-to-distribute texture help turn wash day into something you actually look forward to.

Key Features:

• Co-created for curls 2A to 4C: developed and approved with women across the full curl spectrum, from loose waves to tight coils.
• 100% low-poo approved: free from sulfates, parabens, silicones and salt, so it fits curly-girl and low-poo routines without compromise.
• 7-oil blend, 99.6% natural origin: opuntia (prickly pear), black cumin, moringa, puna, baobab, shea butter and coconut seed butter help nourish and soften each strand.
• Hydrating cleanse that supports moisture balance: removes buildup and excess oil while helping curls stay supple instead of dry and brittle.
• Hyaluronic acid and aloe vera: help support hydration and a comfortable feel on lengths and ends.
• Vegan and cruelty-free: high-yield formula that lathers well, so a little goes a long way in a 300 ml bottle.
• Authentic Brazilian beauty: sourced in Brazil from O Boticário, one of the country's most trusted beauty houses.

How To Use

1. Fully saturate hair with warm water and section it if your curls are dense or long.
2. Apply the shampoo to wet hair, focusing on the scalp and roots.
3. Massage gently with your fingertips to loosen buildup and product residue.
4. Work the lather down the lengths without scrubbing or piling curls on top of your head.
5. Rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear, then follow with your usual conditioner or mask.

Expert Tip: On wash days after heavy styling or oiling, do a quick second cleanse - the first pass breaks down residue and the second one gives you a truly clean, refreshed scalp without over-drying your curls.
