Lush American Cream Conditioner Review

This product is one of those that gets talked about so much with lush. I've heard about this for years but only recently started using it. I've actually had the bottle sitting in my collection for a few months but I used it recently on a trip away as it is in a small size.

This comes in a standard lush bottle, the same as the shower gels. I have the 100gram bottle so it is quite small. Its enough to get a good few uses out of though, I think the biggest size is 250 grams. This has a sticker with the made on date, use by date and even a little cartoon pic of who made it. I'm sure like the gels, that you would be able to get use out of this even if it was out of date too.

This smells incredible. It's descripted as a strawberry vanilla milkshake but it is so much more than that. It definitely has that sweet vanilla vibe but it has a bit extra herbal with the lavendar and sage. I could quite honestly sit here forever sniffing this one.

The first time I used this, I had it in my hair and I felt dissapointed. You know when you use conditioner and the rich ones instantly make your hair feel better? This didn't do that for me. This is quite thin and it sort of made my hair feel dry. Even after washing it, although it smelled great, it felt just blah. I have very long hair and the ends are dry anyway but I want a conditioner to fix that. Anyway, during the day I noticed that once my hair had air dried, the ends felt really soft. I was so surprised, I'd already made up my mind that I hated it when my hair was wet but I quickly had to change my mind! I notice the fragrance in my hair all day long which is a really nice bonus too.

This does work out quite expensive but I think I'll pick it up again in the future. I'd recommend it if you have dry hair like me too.

my daughter gave me a heap of samples from lush as i asked about solid shampoo bars. this was one of them.

this smells so yum. like strawberries and cream but tartier, it's nice though. i used it after using a lush shampoo and it made my hair feel nice but a bit dry (even though it was wet). once it was dry my hair was heavily perfumed. and soft.

the conditioner is an off white and quite runny. i dont think i'd use this as an every day conditioner, and if i did i would use it after normal conditioning and use less, so it was just a hair perfume.

Maybe I'm being a bit mean by comparing this to another Lush condition - Candy Rain - but I does just seem like a worst version of a similar product. I tried both of these products around the same time and found American Cream to be left wanting.

The smell is pretty good but as others mentioned it's not really the strong strawberry milkshake vibe I was expecting from the label.

While the product is promoted as thick and creamy, I found the product to be very thin and I needed to use quite a lot to feel like I had actually conditioned my hair.

I also didnt notice any increase in the shine of my hair which is meant to be the selling point of this product.

Overall I was pretty disappointed and I really don't understand why this is Lushs best selling conditioner. Good thing Lush has some other better options!

When I first started using the Lush solid shampoo bars I was finding that my hair needed some TLC so the retailer suggested American Cream because it is thick and creamy. I was originally using the veganese conditioner but it ended up being too light and that is when I made the switch. I bought the 500g bottle for $37.90 which seemed like more economical way to go. Having short hair it should last a long time.

My initial reaction was I love how the bottles are always so green looking in the way that they look like they concentrate on what is on the inside rather than the outside. They don't have fancy pictures or lettering just the name and Lush branding. I like this approach because it means I am not paying extra just for pretty designs. Open the lid and BOOM!! The strawberry milkshake scent that hits my nose can be my friend any day. Usually I am not a fan of intense smells in my hair care products but this one left me wanting to slather myself in it. The real test will be what's inside and if it works.

Now to be $37.90 better be salon goodness because that is what they charge for their high end products. I wash my hair first with a solid shampoo bar then run a generous amount (by choice. You don't need that much) through my hair and give it two minutes to do it's job. I rinse it out and give my hair a feelskie to find out if it has made my hair feel better. In short yes it does but it doesn't give me the super smooth and healthy feeling that I want and need in my life.

Surely using a generous amount of product would set me up for optimum results? But no it doesn't. I continue to use it two, nearly three months down the line and yes my hair feels alright but I want shine and shaking my head in slow motion side to side feelings. this most definitely doesn't do that. It does work just not in the amazing way it should for the price. I think I will stick to salon $40 bottles of gold.

I got a sample of this last year and fell in love with the smell. Then Shana gave me some more of a sample and I knew that I was going to take the plunge and buy a big bottle of this delicious stuff.

I bought a 500g bottle in store, something I rarely get to do. I used it the next day just so I could have the glorious smell in my hair. The smell is nothing like a strawberry milkshake, in my opinion, I can't even pick up on what it smells like... But it perfumes hair so nicely that the scent lasts all day and brings a smile to my face every time.

The conditioner is quite thin so I find I need a bit more than usual for my hair to feel conditioned but I use this once every 1-3 weeks if I remember or feel like a pick me up. It doesn't make my hair any greasier, it just leaves my hair as it found it - soft, clean and smelling even more amazing. I'm definitely going to repurchase this beautiful gem!

My partner and children went to Lush to pick out a christmas present for me. They got me this paired with Daddy-o. I was so excited because I haven't tried lush hair products until now. My hair is very dry from colouring . I struggle with dry ends that clump together and knot and dread easily. I'm searching for a miracle conditioner that can soften my hair.

Like most lush bottles their basic with nothing special . Black and white labelling. The formula of this conditioner is smooth. Not as thick as store bought conditioners. This scent reminds me of strawberrys with a hint of lillies in the background.

I shampooed with Daddy o then put this conditioner into my hair. It absorbs well. But it didn't soften my hair which is strange. I didn't get that conditioned feeling. My hair still felt a bit coarse from shampooing.

After using this my hair felt soft and smelled incredibly good. But it didn't offer any other benefits for my hair. My hair still felt dry . I've been using it for 6 months and it didn't do much for my hair.

Overall , I can't see myself repurchasing this conditioner. Just because it didn't work for me , it might work for others.

My first ever Lush Conditioner was Veganese, which I loved but found it wasn't moisturising enough for my dry, curly hair. I was then recommended American Cream, and it is now my favourite conditioner!

American Cream has this lovely, rich, strawberry scent which lasts in your hair all day! I love the way it is a thicker conditioner so it provides a lot of moisture to your hair. I have found that I can't use it too frequently (more than every three days) as it starts to weigh my hair down.

I love Lush products as they are made from mostly natural ingredients with no harsh chemicals. This is perfect as it doesn't dry out or damage my hair at all! My hair feels fantastic after use, so I could not recommend this conditioner to anyone with curly hair enough!

After hearing so much about this conditioner I finally decided to buy some. I have read both good and bad reviews so wasn't too sure what to expect.

When it arrived it just happened to be hair wash day the following morning so I was excited to try it out. It was quite thick and creamy which I loved. It smelt amazing, it has a sweet, very strong vanilla fragrance. It is devine and lingers in my hair for days. I find myself sniffing my hair all the time. I use a good size amount as I have long hair but it covers well. I let it sit for 5 minutes and once washed out my hair feels lovely and tangle free.

Once dried my hair is beautifully soft and smooth. I have dry, coloured hair and it does wonders for it. I am so happy I tried this and have ordered the biggest bottle which will last for ages as I only wash my hair 2 times a week.

I definitely recommend trying this conditioner. The smell alone will have you hooked.
