After having cleansed the hair with milk_shake® deep cleansing shampoo and having removed excess water with a towel, apply milk_shake® pro color equalizer to even out the porosity of the hair, then apply the formula to the whole head of hair or the specific areas that need toning, avoiding direct contact with the scalp. Leave to process for 5 to 20 minutes depending on the required tone and the porosity of the hair. It is recommended to check the hair every 5 minutes. Once the processing time has ended, add some warm water, lather and rinse well. Conclude the service with products from the milk_shake® color specifics range.

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS from nature for impeccable results

➝ organic cranberry extract Cranberries are originally from Northern America and are considered a super-fruit, or in other words, as being unique and extremely nourishing. Cranberries contain an enormous amount of anti-free- radical molecules when compared to other fruit like apples or spinach: one glass of cranberry juice can contain up to 8000 different antioxidants! Cranberry extract contains many precious vitamins, such as vitamin C and B vitamins, and minerals such as iron, magnesium and copper, as well as potent bioactive avonoids. All of these substances when applied to hair, enhance protection, helping to give hair a healthy and revitalized appearance. ➝ clay clay is a natural mineral made up of silicates and traces of other elements, accumulated during sedimentation, erosion and exposure to climatic processes, over thousands of years. During the centuries, silicates absorb components from the ground, water, and substances present in their specific environment, thus creating unique clays with their own compositions and concentrations of specific elements. The formulas from the milk_shake decologic range contain Brazilian clay that has a unique golden color and a high affinity with hair, smoothing the cuticle and enhancing repairing processes, protecting and improving the hair’s appearance. ➝ silk proteins silk is among the few fibres produced in nature in lament form by the Bombyx Mori worm, more commonly known as silkworm. Silk is made up of two main protein-based components: broin and sericin. Fibroin is mostly used in the textile, industrial and medical sectors, whereas sericin is renowned in the cosmetic industry for its film-forming and hydrating action. Silk proteins have a great affinity with hair keratin, which they condition and protect, giving manageability and shine whilst protecting the hair from the irritating effect of aggressive surfactants.
