Shampoo

1. Wet your hair thoroughly with warm water.
2. Gently rub the Shampoo Block directly through your hair and scalp.
3. Once a rich lather forms, place the block aside.
4. Massage the shampoo through your hair and scalp.
5. Rinse thoroughly.

Conditioner

1. After shampooing, gently glide the Conditioner Block through wet hair.
2. Focus on the mid lengths and ends of your hair.
3. Put the block aside and massage the conditioner through your hair.
4. Leave for a few minutes.
5. Rinse thoroughly and enjoy soft, smooth hair.

For best results, store both blocks somewhere dry between uses to help maximise their lifespan.

Does the Shampoo Block actually lather?

Does the Conditioner Block work like regular conditioner?

Yes. The Conditioner Block is designed to provide the softness, smoothness and conditioning benefits you expect from a traditional conditioner in a convenient plastic free format.

How long do the blocks last?

Both blocks provide 50+ washes each, depending on hair length, frequency of use and how they're stored between washes.

Is the Essential Hair Duo suitable for all hair types?

Yes. Both blocks are designed for all hair types, making the duo a simple everyday haircare routine.

Will the products leave my hair feeling dry or greasy?

The Shampoo Block combines gentle cleansing ingredients with nourishing oils, while the Conditioner Block is formulated to soften and condition without leaving a heavy residue when used correctly.

Is the Essential Hair Duo plastic free?

Are the products vegan and cruelty free?

Yes. Like all Olivskin products, both the Shampoo Block and Conditioner Block are vegan and cruelty free.

Are the blocks good for travel?

Yes. Their solid format makes them a convenient alternative to liquid shampoo and conditioner, particularly for travel.

Where are the blocks made?

Complete your natural skincare routine with:

• Face Wash and our Face & Body Moisturiser
• Silk+ Moisturiser for advanced face moisturisation and barrier repair

Together they help nourish and hydrate your skin from head to toe.

We believe switching to plastic free haircare shouldn't mean sacrificing the experience or performance of traditional shampoo and conditioner.

That's why we created The Essential Hair Duo to give you everything you need for a complete haircare routine, without the plastic bottles.

The Shampoo Block provides a rich lather and effective cleansing, while the Conditioner Block delivers the softness, smoothness and nourishment you expect from a quality conditioner.

Together, they're a simple way to reduce plastic waste while keeping your hair feeling clean, soft and cared for.

Better for your hair. Better for the planet.
