Values You Can Trust: Cruelty-Free (brand-stated)* / 100% Authentic Guarantee

*Brand-stated; not certified by an independent body.

Tame frizz and nourish dry, brittle strands with this luxurious hair oil from Japan. Formulated with a unique blend of honeys and hydrating ingredients, it replenishes moisture lost due to heat styling, environmental factors, or chemical treatments, leaving your hair feeling incredibly soft and looking brilliantly shiny without feeling heavy.

Best for: Those with dry, damaged, coarse, or frizz-prone hair seeking deep moisture and shine.

What to expect: Softer, smoother hair with reduced frizz and enhanced shine after the first few uses. Helps protect hair from heat damage.

Texture & Scent: Rich but not overly heavy oil texture. Features a sweet Damask Rose Honey scent.

Daily Use — AM or PM:

• Amount: Start with 1-2 pumps (adjust based on hair length and thickness). Rub between palms to warm.
• Apply to: Damp (towel-dried) or dry hair. Focus on mid-lengths and ends, avoiding the scalp to prevent greasiness.
• Method: Smooth evenly through hair. Comb through to distribute. Can be used before blow-drying as a heat protectant or as a finishing oil on dry hair to add shine and tame flyaways.
• Frequency: Use daily or as needed for moisture and shine.

Tips for Best Results:

• Apply primarily to the ends where hair is typically driest.
• Start with less oil; you can always add more if needed.
• On damp hair, it helps detangle and protect from heat. On dry hair, it adds gloss and controls frizz.

Safety: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

• Immediate: Hair feels softer, looks shinier, and frizz is visibly reduced. Easier detangling if applied to damp hair.
• 1-2 Weeks: With regular use, hair feels consistently more hydrated and manageable. Reduced appearance of split ends.
• Ongoing: Helps maintain hair health, protects against daily stressors like heat and humidity, contributing to less breakage and improved overall appearance.

• Myth: Hair oils make hair greasy.
• Reality: This depends on the oil and application. &honey Deep Moist is formulated to absorb well. Applying primarily to mid-lengths and ends (avoiding roots) and starting with a small amount prevents greasiness while delivering moisture where needed most. It tames frizz without weighing hair down when used correctly.
• Myth: You only need oil on wash days.
• Reality: Dry or damaged hair loses moisture daily due to environment and styling. Using a lightweight oil like this daily (or as needed) on ends can replenish lost lipids, protect from friction, and maintain shine and softness between washes.

Works Well With:

• Most shampoos and conditioners, especially hydrating or repairing formulas.
• Leave-in conditioners (apply oil after leave-in).
• Heat protectant sprays (can be layered, or use oil as primary heat protectant for lower heat settings).
• Other styling products like mousses or serums (apply oil last for shine).

Use Carefully With:

• Very fine hair: Use sparingly (e.g., half a pump) only on the very ends to avoid weighing hair down.
• Oily Scalps: Avoid applying near the roots.

• Ideal For: Dry, Thick, Coarse, Wavy, Curly, Damaged, Color-Treated Hair.
• Good For: Normal hair needing extra shine or frizz control.
• Use with Caution: Very Fine or Oily Hair (use minimal amount on ends only).

• Dryness & Brittleness
• Frizz & Flyaways
• Lack of Shine & Luster
• Damage from Heat Styling or Chemical Treatments
• Rough Texture & Unmanageability

• Fragrance: Contains added Fragrance (Parfum). Described by the brand as Damask Rose Honey scent (Intensity: 3/5, pleasant sweet floral).
• Potential Allergens: Contains Fragrance, which can include undisclosed components. Includes natural extracts (Honey, Propolis, Royal Jelly) which could potentially cause reactions in individuals with bee product allergies. Contains Phenoxyethanol (preservative). EU allergens are not explicitly declared by the brand for this specific product, likely included within 'Fragrance'.

Patch test advised if you have sensitive skin or known fragrance allergies.

• Who Should Use: Suitable for adults and teenagers seeking moisture for dry hair.
• Who Should Use with Caution: Individuals with very fine hair (use minimal amount), oily scalps (avoid roots), known allergies to bee products or fragrances.
• Patch Test: Apply a small amount to a section of hair/skin behind the ear or on the inner arm. Wait 24-48 hours. If redness, itching, or irritation occurs, discontinue use.
• Warnings: For external use only. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Do not apply to scalp if prone to oiliness or irritation. Store away from direct sunlight and high temperatures. Flammable - keep away from heat/flames.

• Texture: Medium-weight oil. Feels rich but spreads easily.
• Feel on Hair: Initially feels slightly viscous, but absorbs relatively quickly into damp or dry hair, leaving it feeling soft and smooth without excessive greasiness when used appropriately. Provides noticeable slip.
• Scent: Sweet, floral honey fragrance (Damask Rose Honey). Moderately strong upon application but fades gently.
• pH: Not specified (Hair oils typically don't have a pH relevant to skin/hair acidity).
• Formulation Type: Silicone-based oil blend with natural oils, honey extracts, and conditioning agents.
• Silicone Content: Contains Cyclopentasiloxane and Dimethicone, which provide slip, shine, and heat protection but may build up on some hair types over time without proper clarifying.

• Issue: Hair feels greasy or weighed down.
• Solution: You're likely using too much product or applying it too close to the roots. Reduce the amount to just one pump (or even half) and focus only on the very ends of your hair. Ensure you distribute it evenly.
• Issue: Product doesn't seem to absorb well.
• Solution: Try applying to slightly damp, towel-dried hair instead of fully dry hair, as this can improve absorption. Also, ensure hair is clean; buildup from other products can prevent oil penetration.
• Issue: Scent is too strong.
• Solution: The scent is part of the product experience. If it's overwhelming, try using less product, or consider an alternative fragrance-free hair oil. The scent does tend to lessen after application.
• Issue: Hair feels coated or builds up over time.
• Solution: This can happen with silicone-based products. Incorporate a clarifying shampoo into your routine once every 1-2 weeks to remove potential buildup.

• Humidity Performance: The silicone base helps to smooth the hair cuticle, providing good frizz control in high humidity. However, its richness means using a smaller amount might be necessary during very humid periods to avoid heaviness.
• Sun/Heat: Offers some heat protection from styling tools. While not an SPF for hair, the oils provide some barrier against environmental dryness caused by sun exposure.
• Seasonal Adjustments: May need slightly less product during the hot, humid summer months compared to the cooler, drier winter season. Excellent for combating dryness caused by indoor air-conditioning.
• Overall Fit: Well-suited for managing frizz and dryness common in Mauritius' tropical climate, especially for thicker or chemically treated hair types. Fine hair types should use sparingly.

&honey is a Japanese haircare brand developed by ViCREA Co., Ltd. Launched around 2018, the brand focuses on harnessing the natural moisturizing power of honey. Their core concept revolves around maintaining the optimal moisture level in hair (stated as 14%, similar to healthy hair) by using a unique blend of different types of honey and other hydrating ingredients like Argan oil and Hyaluronic Acid.

• Ceramide: Lipid molecules naturally found in hair cuticles; help maintain structure and moisture retention.
• Cyclopentasiloxane/Dimethicone: Types of silicones used in hair products to provide slip, shine, reduce frizz, and protect from heat. They coat the hair shaft.
• Honey: Natural humectant (attracts moisture), rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
• Hydrolyzed Keratin/Silk: Proteins broken down into smaller fragments that can penetrate the hair shaft to temporarily repair damage and strengthen hair.
• INCI: International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients - standardized names for ingredients.

Is this oil suitable for color-treated hair?
Yes, it's generally safe for color-treated hair. The moisturizing ingredients can help combat dryness often associated with coloring processes. However, it doesn't contain specific color-protecting agents.

Does it contain silicones?
Yes, the INCI list includes Cyclopentasiloxane and Dimethicone, which are common silicones used for smoothing and shine. If you follow a silicone-free routine, this product may not be suitable. Use a clarifying shampoo occasionally to prevent potential buildup.

Can I use this on my scalp?
It's generally not recommended, especially if you have an oily scalp, as it may weigh hair down or contribute to greasiness. Focus application on mid-lengths and ends.

What's the difference between Deep Moist 3.0 and other &honey oils (e.g., Melty Moist Repair)?
The &honey lines target different needs. Deep Moist focuses intensely on hydration for very dry/coarse hair. Melty Moist Repair focuses more on repairing damage and controlling unruly hair ('swell hair'). Silky Smooth is for fine hair wanting smoothness without weight. Choose based on your primary hair concern.
