It's been a long time since I was loyal to a haircare brand. I'm forever trying different products, most of which I never mention due to being a little average. I had seen a few reviews from L'Oreal's sponsored bloggers and thought the Botanicals range looked promising. Without any high expectations I purchased a selection from the range from the Boots site and awaited my delivery.
A few days later my Boots box arrived filled with the Lavender Soothing Therapy Shampoo, Camelina Smooth Rituals Conditioning Balm and the Camelina Masque. I've been suffering with dry straw-like hair, split ends and a slightly dry scalp so I thought this selection might just help a little.
First impressions were the pump shampoo bottle was a great idea and made it very easy to get the right amount whilst feeling quite Salon-like. Initially I wasn't wild on the scents. They weren't bad however usually I go for something a little fresh and fruity. The products are natural so the shampoo smells of Lavender as you'd expect. I have now grown to rather love the smell and it definitely hasn't put me off.
The Botanicals range is free of silicones, parabens and colorants. The products are Vegan (although L'Oreal itself does test on animals in some counties so if you are Vegan you may want to do a little more research - this isn't my strong point). Botanicals uses finer ingredients from natural origins and more sustainable processes. The lack of added ingredients really has transformed my hair making it softer and stronger with less breakage. I use the Masque once a week which keeps my hair super soft and apart from the above am just using a heat protection spray before blowdrying and styling.
I've just been over to the Boots website and the Botanicals range is included in their 3 for 2 offer so I'm stocking up! I've added the links to what I used below. If you give them a go don't forget to let me know your thoughts.
