Shine – Livskraft

FINALIST
Best Natural Hair Serum / Tonic 2026

$45.00

Formulated to hydrate, strengthen and condition hair, this product contains essential oils to provide a scent and support hair growth, strength and scalp health. Depending on hair type, it can be used as a treatment or styling product.

Formulated with excellent clean ingredients, including Certified Organic ingredients.
Livskraft only purchases from Australian businesses and, as ingredients run out, is seeking to source from local Tasmanian businesses for labelling, ingredients and related needs. Every new product undergoes third party testing. Each supplier is thoroughly researched to ensure they are guaranteed cruelty free.
Livskraft has relocated to rural Tasmania and is investigating collaboration with local similar businesses to purchase in bulk, aiming to reduce air miles and costs for customers. The brand recycles and reuses all packaging received from incoming orders for outgoing orders, reducing the need to purchase additional packaging. Livskraft has also maintained a partnership with Green Earth for a number of years.
Livskraft donates to Gumtree Greys, a greyhound rescue charity, with every product sold and supports Ovarian Cancer through annual contributions to the Mother's Day White Shirt appeal. The brand produces a range of dog products for Houndtees, a Melbourne brand that donates, supports and advocates for greyhounds and other animals. In rural Tasmania, Livskraft donates products and time to support local businesses and community members and attends local markets to promote Tasmanian made products.

Product Reviews by Experts


I found myself reaching for this more as a nourishing pre-wash treatment than a styling product. The beautiful botanical scent creates a lovely ritual, and the premium glass bottle with its controlled pump dispenses just the right amount of product, making it easy to apply without unnecessary waste. I also appreciate the thoughtfully selected blend of certified organic oils and botanicals designed to support both the hair and scalp. What impressed me the most about Livskraft is the quiet authenticity behind the brand. Their partnership with Houndtees reflects a genuine commitment to improving the lives of rescued greyhounds and advocating for animal welfare. I also admire the founder’s philosophy of giving back without seeking recognition, alongside the ongoing support of local Tasmanian businesses and community initiatives. I’m thrilled to see them using certified organic ingredients too.


I feel like I’m at my own personal spa when I use this serum. Aside from the spectacular shine it adds to my hair, I’ve been loving using it before bed for the calming aromas. I love the grounding notes of cedarwood and geranium essential oils, and it’s even better that many of the ingredients are certified organic. I also love that it’s packaged in glass (which is infinitely recyclable, yay!), and that the product is cruelty-free and vegan-friendly. Livskraft’s commitment to local production and sourcing, and supporting their local community through their sourcing and donations, is inspiring. It’s fantastic that the hair serum is vegan and cruelty-free, and that there is minimal plastic in the bottle itself.


Applying this product is such a beautiful act of self-care – it’s like a nourishing hair mask for both your scalp and hair. I applied it two hours before showering and was pleasantly surprised that it washed out easily with just one shampoo. My hair has felt wonderfully soft, silky and healthy ever since, and I’ve even noticed less hair shedding. A beautiful treatment that feels as good as it performs. I really appreciate the heart behind this brand. Alongside cruelty-free sourcing and a growing focus on supporting local suppliers, Livskraft has built giving into its business through ongoing support of animal welfare, cancer fundraising and local community initiatives.
