American Cream Review

American Cream

Fresh Strawberry Conditioning Cocktail

$9.95 for 100mL

American Cream is our dreamy, medium-strength for soft, shiny and bouncy locks. Softening honey, scalp clarifying lavender and fresh oranges make a conditioner suitable for all hair types to soften rough ends and keep hair calm. Not to mention the absolutely delectable strawberry vanilla cream scent. Mark was inspired by a vision of 1950s US milk bars, where teenagers would meet and drink frothy, creamy milkshakes. He concocted our best-selling conditioner to soften and control, all while evoking memories. No wonder it remains such a customer favorite year after year!

FEATURES

  • Smells like teen spirit: Suitable for all hair types, just about anyone can enjoy soft hair scented with gorgeous strawberries and vanilla.
  • Double your pleasure: Our medium-strength conditioner leaves your hair calmed, softer and transformed.
  • Fresh is best: Strawberries are rich in vitamin C and have cleansing properties.

Main Ingredients

Fresh Strawberries
Honey Water
Vanilla Pod Infusion
Fresh Oranges
Vanilla Absolute
Clary Sage Oil
Lavender Oil


How to Use


After shampooing, squeeze a small amount into your palm. Smooth through your hair, concentrating on the ends. Rinse out and voila, you’re done!

Best for...

Improving hair texture
Smoother hair
Leaving your hair smelling amazing
Any hair type

Overall...

I am absolutely in love with this conditioner.

From the scent of it, to the affect it had on my hair, this conditioner is a clear favourite of mine now.

The scent is exactly as described, but with a touch more of vanilla. Even after a long day, I still will smell American Cream in my hair. My hair is also a lot softer and shinier after using it. The other great thing about this conditioner is that it will last you a long time.

The only drawback is that the conditioner is a bit thin, so you have to use a little more than expected. Even with that drawback, the conditioner lasts for months before you need to repurchase it.

Overall, this conditioner is my new hair obsession and will be a constant repurchase for me.

I would recommend this to everyone.

Big Solid Conditioner Review

Big Solid Conditioner

For Big Volume and Tons of Shine

$9.95 for 100g

Big conditioner livens up dull, limp and fine hair with a jolt of volume and shine. It carries with it the beautiful fragrance of the vanilla, jasmine and tonka absolute to perfume hair while the sea salt goes to work building body. Extra virgin coconut oil and toothed wracked seaweed infusion soften and condition hair without weighing it down, while a squeeze of lemon juice and fresh lime add even more shine.

FEATURES

  • Preservative-free!:We make Big conditioner solid so no preservatives are necessary. Use it fresh!
  • Go Big or go home: Finally we've got a conditioner to complement one of our most popular shampoos! Check out Big shampoo here.
  • We like it naked:We like to make things in solid form so we can ditch the packaging and go naked!


Main Ingredients

Sea Salt
Seaweed Infusion
Coconut Oil
Jojoba
Lemon and lime juice


How to Use

Since this is a solid hair product, I went with the slicing technique I use with their soaps. Once sliced, I lather it in my hands then massage into my hair.

I let the conditioner sit for a bit while I wash my face/body to get the best results.

If you want shine in hair
If you want more volume in hair
A light scent to hair

Overall...

I wasn't 100% sure how to use this solid conditioner when I first got it, seeing as its solid. However once I got the hang of it, I found the results were pretty good.

I did find that this conditioner is a bit harder to work with compared to the traditional ones, but besides that, my hair texture improved. There were less tangles, I got more volume in my hair, and my hair was softened.

Even though I find this product a bit too difficult to work with; however, it is easy to get the hang of. The scent was also amazing! It wasn't too strong, but still had the sweet jasmine and coconut scent that LUSH promised.

In the end, I would recommend this to people who are up for something a little unconventional and would enjoy a boost in their hair.
