Description

This is a regulating conditioner from Clairol Herbal Essences, designed to help to rectify the problem of greasy roots and dry ends. It contains cornflower, aloe vera and cherry bark extracts, and is supposed to lightly replenish the hair's natural moisture, nourish dry ends and enhance manageability, leaving the hair radiant and full of life.


Pros

- It's relatively cheap at around £3 for a 400ml bottle, or £2 for a 200ml bottle.
- It smells amazing, just like the matching shampoo. Flowery but not in a girly way, it's more of a crisp, fresh, outdoors kind of scent, but it really is beautiful.
- It has a lovely texture to it without being too thick or heavy, but is smooth and creamy and easy to work through the hair.
- You don't need to use a lot, so the bottle lasts a long time.
- It is easier to rinse out than most other conditioners I have used.
- It does exactly what it claims to do. It leaves my hair moisturised but not weighed down or heavy, and really smooth and completely tangle free. My hair has never looked shinier or healthier than when using this conditioner, or felt softer and smoother.


Cons

- As with the shampoo, the packaging is not great, the lid being easily broken and a bit fiddly. The bottle is also opaque so you can't tell easily how much you have left.
- It's not easy to find in the shops. Many of the major places like Boots and Superdrug don't seem to stock this variant even though they do have all the other Herbal Essences shampoos. I eventually found mine in Tesco of all places!


Summary

A lovely, reasonably priced conditioner that leaves the hair looking and feeling amazing without being heavy or weighed down. Fantastic when used along with the matching shampoo.

Summary: Brilliant lightweight conditioner at a very reasonable price
