I purchased this from countdown for around $4 per bottle when it was on special and the smell of it was what drew me in, it smelt delicious, I tried the product and thought it was pretty good in my hair but due to the length and thickness of my hair the bottle didn't really last long, but it left my hair smelling amazing,feeling great.
The new packaging that Herbal Essence have I think is beautiful and very modern, it works well with the packing and makes it easier to find the desired treatment by having good labels and details on the packaging.
Cost wise I think the price is reasonable but for me using this condition is not a "always" thing, more of a treat due to the amount of hair I have it doesn't last very long compared to other products that come in bigger bottles.
I bought this shampoo at New World because it said it was anti-breakage and stops split ends.
It comes in a lovely red bottle and the writing and design puts me in mind of something hippy-ish, which is great for me.
On opening the bottle, the product kind of blobs out like a thick dessert mousse. It is dark pink and has a nice fruity smell. I have shoulder length hair and it requires around a tablespoonful to get good coverage.
I have been using it every day for around 10 days now and find it rather good. My hair does feel stronger and I can't see any split ends. My hair feels silky after after using it and I'm noticing I don't have any frizz or fly-aways.
It was around $5.50 on special which is very economcial for the quality.
I would certainly recommend it to a friend and will re-purchase it myself.
