I saw beachbornph's IG post on their new shampoo bars and thought I should give it a try. Aside from looking for organic and non-sulfate shampoos, I also want it to be eco-friendly and supports the #zerowaste initiative. Though it may be a challenge to be completely zero waste, it won't hurt to start little by little. Baby steps if you may, right? So, start with shampoo!

| Taken from beachbornph's Instagram page This ad made my heart flutter. It says: Do away with sachets! Each of our shampoo bars is the equivalent of 3 250ml bottles! Plus they’re also 100% biodegradable 🐳💛 Talk about the sachets you could avoid throwing in the landfill! |
Beachbornph is quite known locally for their purple shampoo and conditioner. I believe they're the first local brand that retails this kind of shampoo to for bleached and/or dyed hair. I haven't tried that variant but I read raves about it.
I got Beachbornph DIDI CUPPS 2-in-1 shampoo bar with the tin. It may come naked without the tin if you wish. I got one with the tin because I want to bring it with me when I travel or for over-nights like team buildings. They have other variants but I got this one because it is a shampoo and conditioner in one. This variant is also recommended for dry hair. My hair is not really dry but it is dyed. Getting this one is also like hitting two birds with one stone and it's pink.
Beachbornph DIDI CUPPS 2-in-1 shampoo bar description and claims:
DIDI CUPPS 2 IN 1 SHAMPOO BAR
We used the finest butters & oils for this do-it-all shampoo bar!
Cocoa butter for that lovely, shiny, silky feel + extra virgin coconut oil to deep condition, repair split ends and get rid of all that nasty "poo"!
To top it off, we even added some grapefruit essential oil which is packed with vitamins to help thicken and strengthen hair, ylang ylang and bergamot essential oil to help manage frizz and give your locks a lovely yet natural smell!
Directions: Apply bar directly to wet hair, lather, massage and rinse thoroughly.Too bad, I wasn't able to take a picture before using this. Rest assured that their site shows what exactly their shampoo bars looks like. However, I remember that it smelled like fish food upon opening the tin can. It did not smell like lush floral as the description says. I contacted their customer service and the representative reassured me to just leave the container open and keep the shampoo bar dry. The smell went away but it did not leave a flowery/fresh smell as it claimed. I was able to check a naked variant in a distributor's store in my hometown and it smelled accordingly to the description. So, I guess the fish food smell was just a result of it being kept in a closed container. It wasn't bothering, just weird. I like the shampoo all the same!
Best for: dry, damaged hair
Smells like: lush floral
- all-natural
- cruelty-free
- no parabens
What I like:
- Did not made my hair stiff after it has dried
- Made my hair soft, bouncy, and gave it more volume
- Did not experience any hair fall, nor hair fall worsened
- Scalp did not itch or became oily
- I would say this is very affordable. Priced at Php 350. This is a two-in-one shampoo bar. With proper storage, it lasted more than three months. I bought and used this around August and I was done with it last December. Not bad, right?
- Apart from the first impression smell, nothing really. I believe if I buy the one without the tin, I'm pretty sure that it will smell like lush floral. :D
Yes, definitely. Though, right now, I'm trying out a shampoo bar from a different brand. But I would repurchase in a heart beat! :D
