Longtake

The Sandalwood Intensive line is Longtake's flagship set. It covers hair care (shampoo, treatment, hair oil), body care (body wash, body lotion), and hand care (hand cream) in a single sandalwood scent profile. Using all products in the line creates a consistent fragrance layering effect across the hair and body, which persists through the day.

Sandalwood as a fragrance note is warm, woody, and slightly creamy - one of the more universally wearable fragrance directions for personal care. It leans neutral enough to layer under a personal fragrance without clashing, making it a practical choice for those who wear perfume daily.

The Sandalwood Intensive Shampoo 300ml is the daily wash step. The intensive designation suggests a formula oriented toward nourishing and strengthening rather than volume or clarifying. The sandalwood actives in the shampoo provide fragrance alongside any conditioning plant-extract benefits the ingredient carries.

The Sandalwood Intensive Treatment 200ml is the deep conditioning step used after shampooing. Apply to towel-dried hair from mid-shaft to ends, leave for three to five minutes, and rinse. The treatment is also available as a 200ml + 100ml bundle, which is the value option for regular users who want to stock up on the conditioner without buying the same size twice.

The Sandalwood Intensive Hair Oil 40ml is the leave-in finishing step applied to dry or damp hair after styling. Hair oils seal the cuticle, reduce frizz from humidity, and add a visible shine to the strand. At 40ml, this is the standard hair oil size - a few drops per application gives several months of use.

Apply two to four drops to the palms, rub together, and smooth over the mid-shaft and ends of dry hair, avoiding the scalp. On damp hair, apply before blow-drying to provide heat protection and a smooth finish. The sandalwood scent carries through in the hair throughout the day.

The Sandalwood Intensive Body Wash and Body Lotion extend the line's fragrance into the body care routine. The body wash cleans without stripping, and the lotion follows immediately after the shower to lock in moisture. At 200ml, the lotion provides approximately three months of once-daily use for a standard full-body application.

Using both the body wash and body lotion in the same Sandalwood Intensive scent extends the fragrance presence on the skin compared to using only one. The wash deposits a brief scent layer; the lotion carries it for several hours after drying.

The 50ml Sandalwood Hand Cream is the hand care step in the Sandalwood Intensive line. Hand creams in this weight and size are practical for desk or bag carry. The sandalwood-scented formula absorbs into the skin and maintains the fragrance continuity from the rest of the Sandalwood line.

Apply after every handwash or whenever hands feel dry. The 50ml tube provides approximately two to three months of regular use. If you prefer heavier overnight hand treatment, apply a more generous layer before bed and allow it to absorb.

The Basil & Vetiver Refreshing Shampoo is the scent alternative to the warm Sandalwood line. Basil is a sharp, green herbal note; vetiver is an earthy, smoky, slightly woody root extract. Together they create a cool, fresh-herbal direction that appeals to those who prefer green or aromatic fragrances over warm woody ones.

The refreshing designation indicates a formula orientation toward a clean, light scalp feel rather than intensive conditioning. It suits normal to oily hair types better than the Sandalwood Intensive line, which leans toward drier or more damaged hair.

The Black Tea & Pig line uses black tea extract and pig collagen (hydrolyzed porcine collagen) as its active pair. Black tea is a polyphenol-rich antioxidant ingredient; porcine collagen provides a film-forming and moisturizing effect similar to other hydrolyzed collagen inputs. The softening designation refers to the smooth, silky texture the collagen component creates on hair strands and hand skin.

The Black Tea & Pig Hair Oil 40ml and Hand Cream 50ml allow mixing the scent from this line with the body routine from the Sandalwood or Basil & Vetiver line, giving flexibility in building a personal combination routine across multiple Longtake products.

A full Sandalwood Intensive routine: Shampoo and rinse, apply Treatment from mid-shaft to ends and leave three to five minutes then rinse. After drying, apply the Hair Oil on dry hair for finish and frizz control. In the shower, use the Sandalwood Intensive Body Wash. After towel-drying, apply the Body Lotion. At the sink, keep the Hand Cream for post-washing hand care.

For those who want fragrance variety in the hair step, use the Basil & Vetiver Shampoo with the Sandalwood Treatment and Hair Oil for a mixed-scent hair routine, or add the Black Tea & Pig Hair Oil as a change from the Sandalwood version.
