Wow, this is a great range! Nice eco conscious packaging and natural ingredients. The smell was different, a little masculine I thought, but it is subtle and fresh. I definitely would use this conditioner only with the other products in the range to get full benefits otherwise on its own I think it would be lacking in achieving the strenghtning and softness as the end result. I was lucky to trial the complete care package and can report it met all expectations - THANKS BR! The only negative I have is that it doesn't performs very well if you intend to heat style your hair. I found when I tried to straighten my hair my hair just frizzled and took a lot longer with twice as much fuss to try and get it to do what I wanted. But I guess that's not the point of repairing and strengthening your hair.
If your committed to restoring the condition of your hair throw out your heat styling products and replace your regime with this coriander range. My hair usually takes the usual shampoo cond routine and then a ton of products to calm the frizz, maintain manageability and give the feel and appearance of softness. When using the shampoo, cond and leave in serum of this range I had no need to use anything else. My hair was soft, nourished, minimal frizz and completely manageable.
I would definitely recommend this product range for those who want to restore their locks, busy people who don't have the time in their morning routines to fuss about, and those wanting a simple yet effective regime that is eco friendly and natural!
I was really excited to be chosen to trial the shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in treatment from this range. My colour and heat treated hair is in need of some extra love so I take whatever I can get that will help it out. I’m usually a supermarket shampoo/conditioner girl so trying something from L’Oreal which is in that next price bracket up is a bit of a treat.
I really like the packaging of this range. The brown color on the packaging remind me of older style apothecary bottles that you would find in a pharmacy – but being completely made out of recycled materials (other than the dye) means it has that modern twist. I like the squeezy tube that this comes in, and as the product is quite thick you can dispense exactly how much you need.
The scent of this isn’t something I’m a big fan of. I find it interesting that they decided to go with coriander given that some people are genetically disposed to hate it (it tastes like soap to some people). Luckily I’m not one of those people, and I adore coriander usually. Unfortunately though the herbally scent really doesn’t do it for me and smells a wee bit too strong – a wee bit like a medication rather than a spa experience I wanted. I really liked how thick the conditioner is, it made it feel like it was really doing something to my hair. Almost like a treatment. My hair felt really soft after using this, but not in a slippery way that some silicone laced products can make your hair feel.
I don’t know if I would purchase this particular product again, but I am certainly interested in the rest of this range and will keep an eye out for it (when it is on special that is).
