journée mondiale des Océans qui a eu lieu le 8 juin, la
Herbal Essences a souhaité lancer une gamme de produits aux contenants 100% recyclables. La marque s'est associée à

S'il n'est pas toujours évident d'éviter le plastique, il faut garder à l'esprit que cette matière peut être recyclée et ré-utilisée plusieurs fois! La gamme propose un shampoing au pamplemousse blanc et menthe de Meuse, un autre à l'huile d'argan du Maroc et un dernier au lait de coco. À noter que ces 3 produits sont bio et disponibles en édition limitée à partir de juin 2019.
