Trader Joe’s is helping consumers keep their hair clean and healthy with its new Peppermint & Tea Tree Shampoo Bar.
Trader Joe’s Peppermint & Tea Tree Shampoo Bar is similar to the brand's signature Peppermint & Tea Tree Shampoo, but in bar-form instead of liquid. The base of the shampoo bar is saponified oils—which are oils converted into soap by reaction with alkali—that include a blend of coconut oil, olive oil, and castor oil. The base is then enhanced with fresh ingredients like jojoba, peppermint, tea tree, eucalyptus oils, and dried mint leaves. The unique combination creates a bar that helps to cleanse hair without the use of parabens or sulfates. The bar is even packaged in an eco-friendly box made from a FSC-certified mix of cardboard from responsible sources.
