The Body Shop Radiance Shampoo and Conditioner

I recently tried a deluxe sample of The Body Shop's Rainforest Radiance Shampoo and Conditioner. The Rainforest is the new sulfate-free, silicone-free line of hair care products. The scents are a bit strong but extremely pleasant. The products come in different formulas such as moisturizing, shine, radiance, and balance.

The Radiance shampoo and conditioner left my highlighted hair feeling dry, rough, and I was not able to comb through my hair at all. I had to rinse some of my Mastey de Paris Frehair Daily Conditioner through my hair just to be able to comb it. The shampoo has a light lather that builds and it rinses cleanly. The conditioner is easily rinsed out and both have a wonderful, somewhat nutty scent.

Mastey de Paris is the original sulfate-free, silicone free, hair care line, and in my opinion, the best.

The Radiance line may be better suited to those with virgin hair that doesn't easily tangle.

8.4 ounce bottles of these products are available for $10 at The Body Shop boutiques and their website.
