Longtake Sandalwood Intensive Shampoo

So far, the shampoo I've used seems to have the best fragrance. It's as good as Sisley! I personally love the scent~~ And it also lathers well and has a refreshing, squeaky-clean finish. I love it!! I have sensitive skin with redness. I'm particularly vulnerable to oils, heavy oil textures, strong vitamins, and alcohol ingredients. Pores are a concern, but as I've aged, my oil production has decreased and it's been improving naturally. When I apply sunscreen, it causes breakouts, so I look for a sunscreen without allergens. The recent Hera blue bottle sunscreen seems to work the best for me so far! When I use Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent lip products, my lips peel. The Nuxe natural honey lip balm also causes peeling. I'm the type who does best with the Biafine lip balm. Biafine is my absolute must-have! For my hair, I prefer a squeaky-clean, refreshed finish rather than a moisturized feel after use. I tend to prefer hair essences over conditioners.

The shampoo hardens quickly. I received a non-salable single-use sachet, but even though the expiration date had not passed, it was hardened. 😢 There was no problem using it, but it felt a bit unpleasant.

This has been my favorite shampoo from 2024 until now. It has a transparent and watery formulation, and the fragrance is exquisitely woody. It's like the scent of pencil lead, yet it also has a raw, calligraphic aroma when you enter an ink stick studio. The fragrance longevity is excellent, and the unique scent makes it my absolute favorite shampoo.

The downside is that the price is a bit high, it's not a pumping type, and it's surprisingly fast to use. The quantity is small.
