On the occasion of its 18th anniversary, Christophe Robin brings a limited-edition series of its cult classic, the ultimate no-poo product for extensions, coloured and sensitive mane.

Story: 1999 was a pivotal year for star colourist and stylist, Christophe Robin. The creation of two of his most celebrated products marked that year: the Lavender Oil and the Cleansing Mask with Lemon. The latter has been an elixir for hair repair, a protector of damaged hair for this stylist’s most well-known clientele. To mend the hair of his iconic clients from fashion and cinema, hair which has been battered by radical changes, Christophe envisages a hybrid product which is a combination of ultra-gentle cleansing agents and hydrating and protecting actives.

Method of use: A precursor to the low-poo trend in hair care – a capillary detoxifier aimed at replacing shampooing with more delicate, alternative products, this SOS formula made of lemon peel can bring back lustre to capillary fibres and correct pigmentation of coloured hair thanks to its acidic pH level and extracts of Rose-of-Sharon and camomile. It is applied on dry hair while emulsifying with a steady stream of water over four or five turns.

News: An essential, used every day by Christophe Robin in his salon on Rue Bachaumont in Paris, this cleansing mask, of an inimitable, immaculate texture, celebrates its 18 years with a limited edition product.

From the July 2017 issue of L’Officiel India.
