Treat coloured strands to a much-needed vacay with this aloe and mango hair range
Here’s what our Review Crew® had to say about this no-nasties shampoo and conditioner
The product
Let’s be real, in the wake of yet another lockdown our strands are in dire straits – even more so if you’ve been colouring your hair.
Grown out roots aside, when it comes to maintaining the health of colour-treated hair, we think we can all agree our manes could use a little more love now that they’re not being pampered quite as regularly by our hairdresser.
That’s where the Herbal Essences bio:renew Potent Aloe + Mango Shampoo and Herbal Essences bio:renew Potent Aloe + Mango Conditioner comes in.
This pH-balanced, colour-safe aloe and mango-infused haircare pairing amps up the nourishment for softer strands, improved shine and hair health overall, while being completely free of nasties (we're talking sulphate, paraben, colourant and silicone-free shampoo and sulphate, paraben and colourant-free conditioner). The fact that the shampoo and conditioner smells like a tropical cocktail is just an added bonus, because it’s not like we’re jet-setting off on a beachside vacation anytime soon.
Here’s what our panel of Review Crew® testers had to say about this well-timed, strand-saving shampoo and conditioner.
The panel
Beauty Crew sent Herbal Essences bio:renew Potent Aloe + Mango Shampoo and Herbal Essences bio:renew Potent Aloe + Mango Conditioner to a panel of women aged 18 to 36 with colour-treated hair.
The lowdown
Here’s what the Review Crew® loved about Herbal Essences bio:renew Potent Aloe + Mango Shampoo and Herbal Essences bio:renew Potent Aloe + Mango Conditioner.
How hydrating the formula was: Our members who’ve been experiencing dry ends from being stuck in lockdown and a history of colour treatments said this aloe and mango-infused duo was just what the doctor ordered.
Soft strands: Across the board, reviewers admitted that the range left their hair softer than traditional shampoo and conditioners that were also targeted to treating their coloured and chemically lightened hair.
The fruity fragrance: Funnily enough, one point our members kept reiterating time and time again was that they absolutely loved the smell of the range. Seeing that the haircare duo is packed full of mango, it’s not hard to see why they fell so deeply in love.
