Lush Cosmetics' Black Hole Sun is a lightweight and soothing solid hair conditioner that is packed with functional ingredients and pleasing scents. The pressed conditioner gets its dark color from the inclusion of activated charcoal, which is known for its detoxifying and decongesting properties, especially when it comes to removing pollutants from the hair. Some of the other unique additions to the solid conditioner bar are moisturizing extra virgin coconut oil, mandarin, sandalwood and ethyl macadamiate, which Lush included as an "ingredient that coats the hair and repels frizz-inducing humidity."
The package-free bar is one of the many "naked" products from Lush that can be purchased without generating packaging waste. The bar can be activated with water in the shower and massaged into hair to form a rich, creamy lather.
