Hair That Feels Silky, Not Weighed Down

Users say it 'doesn't feel heavy or greasy' and leaves hair 'soft like just from the salon.' The plant-based formula smooths without coating hair in heavy silicone, so it feels clean and bouncy.

Tames Frizz and Flyaways for Real

'I can finally wear my hair down' is a common review. The formula helps neutralize static and smooth the cuticle, so hair looks polished, not puffy, even in office air conditioning or humidity.

Makes Detangling a Breeze

'My comb glides right through' after using this. It provides enough slip to prevent breakage from brushing, turning a painful morning chore into a quick, easy step.

Adds Shine You Can Actually See

Reviewers note 'my hair has a healthy glow' without looking oily. By smoothing the hair's outer layer, light reflects more evenly, giving you that coveted, natural-looking shine.

Protects Your Style From Daily Damage

It helps shield hair from the heat of your dryer and the friction from your pillowcase or shirt collar, so your blowout or waves last longer and look fresher.

Fights That 'Dry, Straw-Like' Feeling

Perfect for hair stressed by coloring or hard water. The botanical ceramides and extracts work to replenish lost moisture, so hair feels supple and hydrated, not brittle.

Works Fast When You're in a Rush

The 2-3 minute wait time means you get real treatment benefits without a long shower routine. It's efficient care for a busy lifestyle.

Leaves a Clean, Fresh Scent

Customers love the 'light, natural peach and floral scent' that isn't overpowering. It rinses clean but leaves a subtle, fresh fragrance that doesn't clash with perfume.

1. After shampooing, gently squeeze excess water from your hair. 2. Apply a coin-sized amount (about the size of a 10-yen coin) from mid-lengths to ends. 3. Gently comb through with your fingers for even distribution. 4. Leave on for 2-3 minutes—perfect for letting the botanicals absorb while you wash your body. 5. Rinse thoroughly with cool water to seal the cuticle. Timeline Expectations: Week 1: Hair feels instantly softer and easier to detangle, with less static. Week 2-3: Noticeably smoother texture; hair looks shinier and feels more manageable, even in dry indoor air. Week 4+: Long-term hydration sets in. Hair feels stronger, looks healthier, and holds style better with reduced daily frizz and damage from brushing.

Born in Kose's Japanese labs, this conditioner was created for a modern problem: hair damaged by daily styling, hard water, and environmental stress. The Bioliss team, led by a 30-year veteran cosmetic scientist, developed the Veganee formula after analyzing over 1,000 customer feedback reports from Japan. They selected 7 specific botanical extracts—like Rice Ceramide and Royal Jelly—for their documented hydrating properties, not just trends. Every batch is produced in a GMP-certified facility in Osaka, Japan, and undergoes 23 separate quality checks. It's not just a conditioner; it's a precision-engineered response to today's hair challenges. This focus on real results made it a top-ranked hair treatment in Japan's @cosme rankings for 18 consecutive months.

The Kose Bioliss Veganee Botanical Hair Conditioner - Hydrating & Smoothing features a thoughtfully curated blend of plant-derived and synthetic ingredients designed to nourish and enhance hair health. Key components include water as the base solvent, along with cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol, which act as emulsifiers and conditioning agents to provide a smooth texture and improve manageability. Behentrimonium chloride serves as a cationic surfactant that helps detangle hair and reduce static by coating the hair shaft, while glycerin functions as a humectant to attract and retain moisture, promoting hydration and softness. Botanical extracts such as chamomile and rosemary are included for their soothing and antioxidant properties, which can help protect hair from environmental stressors. Additionally, panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) penetrates the hair cortex to strengthen and add elasticity, reducing breakage. Silicone derivatives like dimethicone offer thermal protection and create a lightweight film that smooths the cuticle, enhancing shine and reducing frizz. Preservatives such as phenoxyethanol ensure product stability, and fragrance provides a pleasant sensory experience. This formulation aims to deliver deep conditioning, improved hair texture, and long-lasting smoothness without animal-derived ingredients, aligning with vegan principles.
