(Kiwi & Citrus Moisture-Active Shampoo)
Today I am reviewing three products from Crème of Nature. If your hair tends to be on the dry side and needs more moisturizing haircare products, then these might be worth looking into.
– Kiwi & Citrus Moisture-Active Shampoo
This shampoo foams very well, but it is also very conditioning. It does take more time than usual to rinse and I feel that it is a little bit too emollient for my scalp, but the hair itself is left soft and nourished. While this is a good cleansing product for my slightly dry hair, I think it will suit people with both dry scalp and dry hair better.
This is a hair treatment that is left for 20 minutes after shampooing. I have tried using this after my deep-cleansing shampoo (Pantene Pro-V Clarifying Shampoo, which is basically a shampoo with more detergent than standard shampoos) to remove product build-up and to see how well this treatment works. It does work well in infusing moisture into the hair, which is left conditioned and manageable.
(Most of the time, I shower when a hair treatment is at work. But with this product, which contains many rich emollients like paraffinum liquidum, coconut oil, soybean oil, shea butter, cocoa seed butter, jojoba seed oil, and olive oil, I rinse it off completely before showering. Otherwise there will be some unwanted emolliency particularly around the back of my neck and my back.)
(Lemongrass and Rosemary Leave-in Crème Conditioner)
– Lemongrass and Rosemary Leave-in Crème Conditioner
This is my favorite of the three. A leave-in conditioner or a (silicone-based) hair serum (like John Frieda’s Frizz-Ease) helps me a great deal in keeping my hair manageable, and this item does the job well. It has a light-cream texture and a little goes a long way. It adds moisture and a bit of gloss to the hair, but it does not make the hair look or feel greasy (provided that I don’t over-use it). The moisture is able to last throughout out the day.
If you have normal/oily hair that doesn’t have dryness issues, then these three products might not suit you and you might find them to be too rich. But if you
have dry scalp and dry hair and/or if you regularly color-treat or heat-treat your hair, then these products might be worth a try.(Crème of Nature products are currently available in the US.)
(A note on my hair: I have short-length and wavy hair. I have slightly oily scalp and slightly dry hair. Volume is never something I need to boost up, since I have quite a lot of hair. My hair can be on the puffy and unruly side, so I use haircare and styling products that make it look flatter, sleeker, and more groomed. I don’t color-treat or heat-treat my hair.)
