Garnier Fructis Hair Food Macadamia Shampoo and Conditioner

Another strongly perfumed shampoo and conditioner from the Garnier hair food line. Got a couple of the big hair food tubs for a really great price on a clearance sale at the local supermarket. I also got a shampoo and conditioner I used my beauty vault points to pickup a little bulk of this range. I have been using it for a while now I mix the conditioner in with temporary hair colour and use like a mask the scent is long lasting and quite strong. If you like the scent I think you will enjoy it it's like a coconut type of smell as far as the different types from the same line, I'm not noticing much differences between them aside from the scent although I do think the watermelon one is somewhat more lightweight. If you do leave the stuff in a bit long you might find your hair is a bit oily sooner it takes a bit to get used to because you want to use more than usual conditioner with the hair food line as it does not have the silicone / diamenticone which makes hair feel amazingly slippery and smoothed without really actually helping or nourishing in the long run. The shampoo lathers really well a little goes a long way. All in all I'm finding I have had enough of this one now the scent is a bit too intense for me but I will use it up and probably revisit it later in the year.

When I first saw these products, I thought they looked like flavoured milk. One is dark brown and the other is cream which makes it easy to tell the two apart. They both smell lovely and I have been using them together for about a week. Have a lovely macadamia nut smell and are both quite thick so you don’t need to use too much. The containers are able to be recycled and there is no silicone in the formulas. All natural ingredients and vegan so got to be good for your hair. My hair has not been so fizzy and feels quite smooth but is a little fluffy. These come in a great size 350ml so easy to throw in a bag if travelling. Not convinced that I would use again, I think perhaps every once in a while. I saw them in the supermarket the other day so easy to get your hands on them. Different flavours for different hair so if you want to try something new then give them a go.

Ganier is a well known supermarket brand accessible to anyone. Over the years I’ve seen this brand develop new innovative products. To be honest I dread hair washing day . My hair is thick and dry . It takes a lot of time to get it into a manageable state. In this review I’ll discuss my experience with these products.

Packaging comes in unique sized bottles . My son thought it was a new flavoured milk . Had to stop him from trying it . Consistency of the shampoo is smooth fluid with a sweet nutty macadamia scent. The conditioner is thick . I found it easy to get product out with this bottle shape.

Application I find pretty straight forward. I started with the shampoo . My hair is thick , I had to use quite a bit to get it to lather up . Wasn’t as soapy as I’d expect it to be . Smells great with application. Conditioner was easy to use . Lathered up in my hair nicely .

Afterwards my hair felt clean from all my hair serums and dry hair shampoo. My hair was knotty afterwards . A nightmare to work with . Lots of untangling to do . After trying it, I did enjoy it . Would I buy it probably not . I tend to go for family sized products which will usually last months .

I used this a few times and unfortunately didn’t get to finish a whole bottle! My hair didn’t like this stuff too much, however it smells amazing and a great texture…

I trialed both of these products three times together and found that they did not suit my hair type. I have wavy, combination hair with dry ends. I found that both the shampoo and conditioner left my hair dryer than normal and caused it to tangle and become really knotty. All three times it left my hair looking oily on the scalp and dry on the ends. Both the shampoo and the conditioner have an amazing smell, they are sweet with a hint of macadamia. Overall, I do not think that these products worked on my hair type and would not recommend for someone with my type of hair.

Leaves my hair exactly the same as before - very heavy so does leave a residue which makes hair harder to style - smells and feels nice when applying - love that it’s natural but doesn’t work for me
