Bencoolen Virgin Coconut Oil Shampoo & Conditioner




On my previous post, I did introduce the Bencoolen Virgin Coconut Oil.

Today, I will tell you about other Bencoolen products.

Bencoolen Virgin Coconut Oil Shampoo and Conditioner are the product of Malaysia. I think that the shampoo and conditioner are quite good. I have finished using the shampoo. I like the conditioner because it is not very thick. However, there is nothing special about the shampoo.

Active Ingredients: Natural Virgin Coconut Oil
What it promises: 
Shampoo - Strengthens your hair and made it shinny, reduce hair fall
Conditioner - nourishes, repairs and protects your hair from the root

Highlight of the product: No parabens, No Sodium Laureth Sulfate

Rating : 3.5/5
Will I repurchase: Maybe will get the conditioner only
Price: Shampoo - RM45 for 400ml, Conditioner - RM29 for 250ml

Have you tried this shampoo and conditioner before? What is your favorite at the moment?

Thanks for reading my review.
