FINAL VERDICT
Hair Silk Peptides is a luxurious, oil-rich leave-on treatment that provides shine, softness, and cuticle nourishment through plant oils and silk proteins. While the base formulation is clean and free of harsh synthetics, it contains a high concentration of fragrance botanicals, which may be problematic for sensitive scalps or those following a fragrance-minimal clean beauty philosophy. It supports hair health but does not fully meet Functional Beauty Standards due to its allergenic essential oil profile.

QUICK VERDICT:
A nourishing, shine-boosting oil blend with silk peptides – effective but heavily fragranced, making it less suitable for sensitive scalps.
