Super moisturizing with a fresh scent!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The conditioner has a wonderful clean scent that lasts all day. It makes my hair incredibly soft, manageable, and easy to detangle. While results are great, the price is definitely a bit steep for a regular conditioner, but I like it!
Smells lovely and cleans deeply.
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This shampoo smells absolutely lovely and leaves my hair feeling clean, light, and refreshed after every wash. It lathers up smoothly and gives good moisture. My only complaint is that it is a bit on the expensive side for daily use.
Leave hair silky and glossy, but pricey!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] These hair drops smell fantastic and leave my hair looking glossy and feeling super silky without weighing it down. They tame my frizz really well. However, the price is a bit high for such a small bottle.
