Ceremonia Guava Hydrating Leave-In Conditioner
by Ceremonia · hair_care
Editor's Take
For a botanical leave-in, this has real salon-counter brains: Pellicer and Diheptyl Succinate smooth well, though fragrance keeps the clean story from sparkling.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Efficacy: 7.8 / 10
- Modern Tech: 7.2 / 10
- Clean Beauty: 6.4 / 10
- Sustainability: 7.0 / 10
The Verdict
The Strong efficacy score is earned: Diheptyl Succinate gives silicone-like slip, while Pellicer, also listed as Sodium Dilauramidoglutamide Lysine, brings a credible repair angle for a leave-in. Technology is Modern, with plant-derived film formers and a bio-based oil copolymer doing more than the usual fruit-extract window dressing. The clean side is more mixed because fragrance, Phenoxyethanol, Polyquaternium-10, and VP/VA Copolymer keep it out of purist territory. Worth it for daily detangling and light smoothing when you want performance first, with a modest clean compromise attached.
