MARS MADE Purple Toning Shampoo Bar 2.0 — 120g Solid Shampoo for Color-Treated Hair, Hydrating & Anti-Brass

MARS MADE Purple Toning Shampoo Bar 2.0 is a concentrated, sulfate-free solid shampoo that neutralizes brassiness while hydrating and nourishing all hair types.

Formulated for blondes, silver-haired folks, and anyone with highlighted or color-treated hair, this purple toning shampoo bar blends mild surfactants with botanical oils and extracts to gently cleanse, tone, and condition in one step. The bar replaces about two bottles of liquid shampoo and offers a lavender-scented lather that aims to refresh hair color without harsh chemicals. It’s cruelty-free, free from parabens and silicones, and designed to be long-lasting and travel-friendly.

How does the purple toning action reduce brassiness?

The bar deposits violet pigments to counteract yellow and orange tones commonly seen in lightened hair, leaving cooler, crisper highlights. Toning occurs during the rinse stage; pigment attaches to the hair surface to neutralize unwanted warm hues without stripping color.

• Violet colorants balance warm undertones for a cooler appearance.
• Gentle surfactant base cleans without aggressive color removal.
• Use frequency depends on hair porosity and desired tone—often 1–3 times weekly.

Will this shampoo bar dry my hair or scalp?

Designed with moisturizing ingredients like olive oil, gardenia fruit extract, and sea buckthorn, the formula aims to hydrate rather than strip. The coconut-derived cleansing agent produces a rich foam while being milder than many sulfate detergents, helping preserve natural oils and scalp comfort.

• Olive oil helps soften and smooth hair cuticles.
• Botanical extracts add nourishment and antioxidants.
• Sodium cocoyl isethionate offers a creamy lather that’s less harsh than traditional sulfates.

How should I use and store the solid shampoo for best results?

Wet hair, rub the bar between wet hands or directly onto hair to build lather, massage into scalp and lengths, then rinse well. Adjust contact time if you want stronger toning—leave a minute or two before rinsing for a deeper neutralizing effect.

• Rub in a soap net to generate extra foam and extend the bar’s life.
• Store on a well-draining dish to let the bar dry between uses.
• For maintenance, alternate with a regular gentle shampoo if needed.

Does this product suit all hair types and colored hair care routines?

Yes. The bar’s gentle cleanser and moisturizing actives make it suitable for fine to thick hair, while the purple tone targets brass in lightened shades. It’s formulated to be safe for color-treated hair when used as directed and can be integrated into weekly color-care routines.

• Appropriate for natural blondes, bleached hair, silver/gray tones, and highlights.
• Use less frequently on very dark hair—benefits are primarily for neutralizing warm tones.
• Works well as part of a maintenance plan alongside conditioners and masks.

Who is this for? If you’re looking to keep blonde, silver, or highlighted hair cool-toned without liquid bottles or harsh sulfates, MARS MADE Purple Toning Shampoo Bar 2.0 is crafted for you. It’s a practical choice for eco-conscious shoppers, frequent travelers, and anyone who wants an easy, fragrant, and nourishing way to reduce brassiness while supporting longer-lasting color vibrance. People with sensitive scalps or very dry hair should monitor frequency and follow with a restorative conditioner when needed.
