Linden Leaves Rosemary and Cypress Shampoo and Balm Mint and Tangerine conditioner

As my first products to test for Beauty Review I got to try out the Linden Leaves rosemary and cypress shampoo and balm mint and tangerine conditioner.

These come in 270 ml bottles which sit nicely in my shower caddy. Both products are a good consistency that come easily out of the bottle and both work well with my hair, which is very thick and wavy. I also gave some to a friend who has very fine hair and washes daily with no or very occasional conditioner. The shampoo was great for adding body to her hair while still leaving it soft and shiny!

However both of us found the rosemary smell of the shampoo a little overpowering and inclined to remind us of a household disinfectant.

But the smell of the conditioner is just wonderful! – a very refreshing tangy mint unlike any other fragrance I have experienced with a hair product before. The shampoo contains a number of beneficial plant oils of avocado, rosehip, coconut and rosemary and burdock root extract, while the conditioner contains oils of balm mint and tangerine along with some conventional quats for hair conditioning. The bottles could be confused in the shower though the fragrances of the two products do make them distinguishable. However the addition of different coloured tops might make it easier for the smell impaired. Overall I thought that these are nice products and now having used them for a few weeks I am convinced! I love being able to wash may hair and have the lovely smell of the conditioner pervading the shower. Just bought my first set from the website. Thanks Linden Leaves!

This shampoo and conditioner smells amazing and had a very calming effect on me. I was very surprised at how little i really needed to use each wash which, for me, would more than justify spending the rather hefty price that it retails for. My hair glowed after using, it smelled so fresh and was smooth and silky. My scalp (which has been known to react to some brands) felt fine. I was very, very happy with this product and i will not hesitate in recommending it to family and friends.

I was lucky to purchase these from the first ever BR beauty vault sale. I am extremely impressed they not only smell divine they leave my hair so soft & pleasantly scented, smooth & glossy. It has also helped with my dry itchy scalp - an issue I don't normally have but I developed over the hot summer.My hair is easy to style & I can go for quite a few days between washes. Linden Leaves is one of my favourite brands & this is a great product

I got these from my sister about a week ago. They look great and are cruelty free and everything. The shampoo had a sort of globby consistency and didn't work up much of a lather. I could feel it in my hair though, and smell rosemary all around and it does get my hair clean. The conditioner smells only slightly orangey, and not much like mint. I find it very moisturising and come away from every wash with shiny and fresh rosemary-smelling hair.

Love both products. Love that they are are organic and smell amazing, would buy these!. The natural ingredients are a plus side as you know you are not putting anything bad in your hair!, lathers and rinses out brilliant leaving hair smooth and silky would recommend to anyone give it a go!

The first thing I took in to account was the smell of the products, The Rosemary and Cyprus smelt so strongly of rosemary I was a little bit weary that I would come out smelling like a herb garden, But the Balm Mint and Tangerine Conditioner smells like absolute heaven I couldn't get enough of it. Being a natural product it wasn't typically foamy when cleansing but when rinsed out you could feel hair was clean, I have noticed less flaking on the scalp as well as I could probably get another day out of my hair without having to wash it (I shampoo every second day.) The conditioner soaks right into the hair shaft, and I just can't stress how good it smells! My hair has been through a lot of chemical processing but with these products my hair is much more manageable, really shiny and super soft. I am really happy with this product and would choose this over many salon brand shampoo and conditioners.

I have oily hair and a dry scalp so was keen to try this product. I found the shampoo cleaned my hair without stripping it of nutrients. It definitely calmed the itchiness down of my flaky scalp and it also added body to my hair. As soon as I opened the bottle I was greeted with aromas of the oils. I loved the smell of the conditioner, it was a fresh minty and tangerine aroma and left my hair with a nice glossy shine. Its great that it is made from natural ingredients and free from parabens, SLS and is cruelty free.

I always love to try new shampoos and my long bleached hair is in need of some tlc. What I loved about this shampoo is the scent. I had a bit of a cold when I first tried this and the smell cleared me out and made me feel refreshed. I was skeptical as I thought that it wouldnt clean or lather without the sodium lauryl sulfate but a little went a long way and really cleaned and got rid of my styling product build up. I also love the packaging, and have also realised how much wastage there is in other shampoo product packaging. This takes up less room in my shower which is great!! My hair was easy to comb and dried without frizz. The only drawback is the price - although I think this product will last longer than other products of the same size. The packaging is also see through so you know how much you have left!
