- 1. Shampoos and Conditioners
Formulated to cleanse without stripping natural oils, our shampoos and conditioners are infused with moisture-boosting agents like coconut oil, olive oil, and shea butter. These ingredients deeply hydrate while restoring the hair’s natural pH balance.
- 2. Leave-In Conditioners and Moisturizers
Our iconic Pink Oil Moisturizer Hair Lotion is a cult favorite, providing daily moisture and protection. Ingredients like jojoba oil, vitamin E, and pro-vitamin B5 nourish the hair shaft, improve elasticity, and help reduce breakage.

Whether you're defining curls or protecting hair during heat styling, our styling products offer a range of hold and shine options. Infusions of argan oil, castor oil, and silk amino acids promote softness, manageability, and a frizz-free finish.
- 4. Scalp Treatments and Oils
Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp. Our treatment products feature tea tree oil, peppermint oil, and aloe vera, which soothe itchiness, combat dandruff, and improve blood circulation for optimal hair growth.
Hair Concerns We Address
Luster’s Pink understands the unique challenges of textured hair, which is why our formulations are designed to tackle a variety of hair and scalp concerns, including:
- 1. Dryness
Our moisturizers and leave-in conditioners deliver intense hydration and seal in moisture, combating brittleness and promoting softness.
- 2. Frizz and Flyaways
Our lightweight serums and stylers tame frizz and smooth out rough cuticles without weighing the hair down.
- 3. Breakage and Hair Fall
Enriched with strengthening agents like biotin and keratin, our products reinforce hair structure and minimize breakage due to styling and environmental stressors.
- 4. Dandruff and Itchy Scalp
With anti-inflammatory and anti-fungal ingredients like tea tree oil and peppermint extract, our scalp care line addresses flakiness and irritation effectively.
- 5. Growth Stimulation
Our scalp oils and conditioners contain nutrients that stimulate the scalp, promote circulation, and support the natural growth cycle of the hair.
How It Works: The Science Behind Our Products
The effectiveness of Luster’s Pink lies in the science of synergy—
combining nature and innovation. Our R&D team works tirelessly to formulate products that go beyond surface-level care.
Each product is designed with
cuticle-penetrating technology, allowing key nutrients to reach the hair’s inner cortex, where repair and strengthening occur. For instance:
- Emollients like coconut and olive oils provide deep hydration and form a protective barrier on the hair shaft to prevent moisture loss.
- Humectants such as glycerin and panthenol attract water molecules, ensuring continuous hydration throughout the day.
- Proteins like hydrolyzed keratin rebuild damaged strands from the inside out.
- Scalp-stimulating botanicals help increase blood flow to hair follicles, encouraging healthy growth.
Over time, consistent use of Luster’s Pink products results in
stronger, shinier, and more resilient hair. The products are gentle enough for daily use yet powerful enough to deliver noticeable improvements.
