Hey Curlies,
In the past, I've posted a ClassyCurls Profile feature on a wonderful person named Victoria (love her name!) who owns her own hair and skin care line. He products contain certified USDA organic shea butter and other natural oils. To view her featured profile, click here.
About a month ago, she sent me a couple of free samples because I was interested in reviewing them. The two products that I will be reviewing are the Mango Conditioner and the Tea Tree Shampoo.
Mango Conditioner
What it contains:
Water, Cetearyl Alcohol,
Behentrimonium Methosulfate, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, Potassium Sorbate,
Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (Plant Derived), Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter,
Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Panthenol, Silk Amino Acids, Disodium EDTA, Mangifera
Indica (Mango) Seed Oil, Triethanolamine.
What it claims to do:
A rich, creamy conditioner
ideal for normal or thick hair. This intensive, daily conditioner detangles and
hydrates the hair with our 100% USDA Certified Organic Shea butter from roots
to ends. Naturally Hypoallergenic, it helps to restore manageability and
protect hair from harsh elements like heat, cold, and over processing, leaving
hair silky smooth, soft and luxuriant. Lightly scented with a hint of tropical
Mango essential oil ( From the NouriShea.com website)
My review:
This product is for definitely for those who have very thick hair but it also works for those who have normal hair. When the product is applied to your hair you can smell the mango. For those who adore mangoes, you'll have a party with this. The texture is sort of like a lotion but doesn't have tons of slip as some lotions have. I do really like this product as a detangler. I applied the product after shampooing and let it sit on my hair for about five minutes before rinsing. Using a wide tooth comb, I detangled my hair with ease. I give this product a 4 out of 5. This won't be a waste of your money!
Tea Tree Shampoo
What it contains:
Water (Aqua), Sodium
C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate, Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate, Cetyl Betaine, Sodium
Lauryl Sulfoacetate, Potassium Sorbate, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter,
Glycerin (Vegetable), Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Anthemis Nobilis (Chamomile)
Extract, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Seed
Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Polyquaternium-10,
PEG-150 Distearate, Tetrasodium EDTA, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf
Oil, Citric Acid.
What it claims to do:
This rich herbal-based shampoo
has been specially formulated for irritated, flaky scalp. Made with our 100%
USDA Certified Organic Shea Butter, Vitamin E and essential oils including Tea
Tree Oil—a natural antibacterial / antifungal agent—this natural shampoo will
gently cleanse hair while helping to calm irritated, flaky scalp. Ideal
for everyday use or for when you need that extra clean, tingling feel. (From the NouriShea.com site)
My review:
Tea Tree oil is used to treat dry and itchy scalp, so to combine this essential oil into a shampoo is great. I really liked the Tea Tree smell, and it was not overpowering. It does lather really nicely.Usually, most shampoos leave my hair really matted and brittle. With this shampoo I did not experience any of that. When I rinsed, the product left my hair soft and shiny. Overall I give this product a 5 out of 5.
