The Face Shop

Dry or breakage-prone hair needing strength, moisture, and split-end control.
Avoid if
Skip if you have a very oily scalp that a rich conditioner could weigh down.
Why we recommend it
The Face Shop's Rice Water Bright Essential Treatment uses 100% Korean rice water, rich in ceramides and vitamins A, B12, and E, plus shea butter for deep hydration. It strengthens elasticity, helps prevent breakage-related hair loss, and reduces frizz and split ends, all sulfate- and silicone-free. For dry, breakage-prone Asian hair, the rice-water tradition and ceramide support make this a gentle, strengthening conditioning step.
