Carina Organics Leave-In Conditioner

This leave-in conditioner is formulated with certified organic plant, vegetable, and fruit extracts. It’s designed to detangle, add softness and shine without harsh synthetics.

Ingredients (excerpt):
Filtered Aqua, Cocos nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Cetyl Alcohol (Fatty Alcohol from Coconut), Olea europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Cucurbita pepo (Pumpkin) Seed Oil, Pinus elliottii (Pine) Extract, Pinus banksiana (Pine) Extract, Matricaria chamomilla (Chamomile) Flower Extract, Urtica dioica (Nettle) Leaf Extract, Taraxacum officinale (Dandelion) Leaf Extract, Trifolium pratense (Clover) Flower Extract, Acetic Acid (Apple Cider Vinegar), Magnesium Chloride (Magnesium Oil), Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (Guar/Cluster Bean) Gum.

What I like:

  • Uses plant-derived oils and botanical extracts rather than heavy synthetics

  • Certified organic sourcing for many ingredients

  • Vegan and cruelty-free

  • Free from parabens, soy, gluten, and dyes

  • ≈ 98% of their certifiable ingredients are from QAI/USDA certified growers

Things to keep in mind:

  • Contains botanical extracts and essential oils (depending on version), which may still cause sensitivity in fragrance-sensitive users

  • As a leave-in treatment, performance may vary depending on hair type and needs — very thick or highly textured hair may require a more intensive formula
