Hi beauties,
Today’s blog post is a review on the Hask Cactus water shampoo and conditioner. I was kindly gifted these products to try out and so glad that I got picked to test them out because otherwise I would’ve never discovered what amazing, natural products they are! Read more to find out why I love them so much…
In today’s post we are are going to discuss a few different aspects of the products and break them up according to the following: packaging and product as a whole, scent and product finish & longetivity.
Packaging and product
At first glance, the packaging of this product is very sleek and easy to use. The product is 355ml and comes in a long skinny bottle that makes it easy to bring along with you when you are travelling. The bottle has a pop top style lid that makes it easy to get the product out as well as easily controllable to get the correct amount you need.
The shampoo is colourless and can be seen through the “see-through” bottle it is encased in. Whereas the conditioner is white in colour in a milky coloured bottle. The font and detail on the front of the product catches your eye and makes you want to display them in your shower loud and proud!
In terms of the product itself, I thought the consistency was perfect, it wasn’t too thick and clumpy nor was it too watery. Upon application, the product was easy to massage into the scalp and seemed to do as it claimed being a “weightless moisture shampoo and conditioner”.
Scent
I wanted to give the ‘scent’ its own paragraph to emphasise the magnificent smelling product this is! As well as being titled ‘cactus water’ is also contains Prickly Pear seed oil which really comes through when using this product. It does have a tiny hint of a fruity scent, although nothing overpowering and is easy on the nose.
Product finish and longevity
In terms of the product effect after washing and drying my hair, it definitely left my hair looking silky and smooth. I usually have wavy to curly hair, but depending on the shampoo/conditioner I use, it could turn out very straight or very curly (I just never know!) With this product, I noticed that it helped keep a curl rather that straighten out my hair – which I love!
Not only did this product achieve what it claimed to achieve, it also was an A+ on the longevity side of things! You may be wondering, how do you measure longevity in terms of shampoo and conditioner? It’s pretty easy to do so – mainly assessing when my hair becomes oily! Although, this product does contain natural oils in the shampoo and conditioner itself it wasn’t as bad as I had anticipated it to be. My hair lasted about 2-3 days before it started to become oily, this is on par with other products but I can usually last 3-4 days before having to wash my hair again.
Overall thoughts
Overall, I did enjoy using these products and would definitely repurchase again in the future! The product is definitely not only a perfect product to use, it is also environmentally friendly and does not test on animals (big A+).
Overall rating: 8/10
