Advantages: Smells gorgeous, hair glossier and easier to brush

Disadvantages: Pump was a bit dodgy

Firstly a little about my hair as a previous reviewer said this product didn't work for her so perhaps it depends on hair types. I have very long natural red hair, which means that it is very thick and tends to get very dry on the ends but living in the heat also gets oily on top quickly. I only blow dry or straighten my hair on occasion but also my hair is in terrible condition towards the ends due to haircuts being around the 60 euro mark where I am living and the sun constantly beating down on it. I don't usually use conditioner I have to say, just because i am to lazy to let it sit in my hair for a couple of minutes whilst dodging the shower so when my mother came to visit me and wanted to lighten her load of toiletries on the way back she left this behind for me. As it had barely been used I was quite happy about this! I wouldn't go and buy it myself so it was nice to have the freebie to try.

The product is a leave-in conditioner for "weak and distressed hair" and contains Australian Jojoba seed oil and it says that it detangles and helps protect your hair from everyday wear and tear. It also says its good for the beach so being in the sun a lot I held a lot of promise for this product. You have to spray it on towel dried hair and comb it through but you don't need to wash it out. This is one of the main positives about the product for me because as I previously said I am lazy and hate dodging the shower with a head full of conditioner.

I have to say I really did notice the difference. With my hair being so long it often tangles and sometimes when wet it can be a nightmare but after spraying this from the mid-length of my hair to the bottom, my hair brush (yes I know I'm naughty and don't use a comb!) slid through my hair much easier without any major knots. I didn't blow dry my hair afterwards but went to bed with it wet. This is usually a huge mistake as I end up with frizz in the morning and as my hair is a little wavy I usually end up with some strange kinks. Yet when i woke up my hair looked much shinier, less dry and there were waves but not horrible knotted kinks. It also felt softer.

Another thing I loved about this product was the smell. Although I couldn't really smell this in the morning anymore which was disappointing. But it really smells so summery and fresh without overpowering and it really smells just like holidays without having that cheap sweet coconut aroma so many holiday products have.

The bottle is also a spray pump, which I did find quite difficult to use not wanting to overload my hair so it was greasy. The pump didn't seem to work so well and was quite hard work to press down but this could perhaps be due to the travel it has endured but still I think that a product should be able to withstand a flight!

After using this I may go back and get some of the other products in the range, especially if they have the same smell because I was most impressed!

Summary: Saved me a lot of time and effort
