L'Oréal Paris® Botanicals Lavender Soothing Therapy Regime Review

The scent was amazing and lasted on my hair after drying and styling.

I much preferred the shampoo over the conditioner. The shampoo has none of the sulphates etc that make hair go frizzy and dry so really helped define my curls. However I have bleached hair ( balayage) and the shampoo turned it an odd colour after first wash, so needed to use purple shampoo more frequently.

The conditioner is VERY hydrating, also too much. My hair was very greasy as soon as it dried. So a little goes a long way and i didn't even use much.

I persoanlly wouldn't repurchase but my mum is loving it and it is working wonders on her hair.

I was looking for a really good conditioner for very fine and straight hair, so far so good. It has a nice creamy consistency but maybe need to use abit more than I normally would. It has a nice fragrance nice and subtle and not too overpowering. It’s a similar price to what I pay for other conditioners so it’s worth the money, although you do use abit more so it maybe slightly more expensive? I love the packaging it’s very appealing. I found it did what it said and my hair has been soft and shiny and it cleanses very well. I’d definitely use this again and would recommend this to my friends

I had high hopes for the regime, and was expecting my scalp sensitivity to reduce, but it did not out perform any other products I already use. It was on par with other products that aren't aimed at sensitive scalps.

I liked the packaging, however, the difference in the bottles sizes was very annoying. I use more conditioner than shampoo and so I will likely finish the conditioner way before the shampoo, which is frustrating as they are part of a regime.

I have thick, wavy hair, and this regime gave me serious volume and looked borderline oily, not on the roots but on the hair overall. I definitely do not need extra volume, so I ended up looking crazy.

I was hoping that the smell would be more true to lavender, but I found it to have a miscellaneous type smell.

Overall, I was disappointed with this regime, as I expected more. I did get my friend to try this too, and she mentioned that it didn't make her scalp condition (psoriasis) any worse, so I think this is quite good. It did not wow me, nor do anything I don't already have from other products, so I am saying it's okay, but definitely not one I will look at buying.

When paired together I think these products work wonders on my hair, the creamy consistency spreads well through my hair and has a pleasant smell. It was a little odd tht the containers were different I think I would prefer they were both pumps. My scalp has felt less irritated and I haven't felt the need to wash my hair almost every day which I have been doing with previous conditioners which left my hair feeling flat and oily. I love that it's made from organic products . The price is slightly on the high side but I found you didn't need to use too much product so it should last. As for the lavender relaxing claims, I didn't really notice to be honest. The conditioner counteracted the shampoo from tangling. So I think it's best you use both the shampoo and conditioner. Not the salon feel finish that I dream of but definitely the best combo i have tried recently

The first thing you notice about this product is the gorgeous lavender smell. It was a really pleasant surprise and makes your simple shower a luxurious one.

I have been struggling with dull, dry fragile hair this cold winter. Since the first wash - using this Lavender Soothing Therapy Shampoo and Conditioner combo - I saw a major improvement in my hair and it keeps getting better. My hair is soft, feels moisturised and looks healthy. My curls are starting to bounce back too, which I am very happy about.

In terms of consistency, the shampoo is quite light, easy to work through the hair, and lathers nicely. The conditioner is creamy and smoothing, and I find it softens and detangles my curls well. I use a comb after shower, and have noticed an improvement in tangles and knots (which frequented my dry hair!). The conditioner is so soft, it feels like a hair mask. I usually leave this in for a few minutes before rinsing out.

Packaging wise, the shampoo is in a nice pump bottle and the conditioner in a squeeze tube. It's easy to control how much you want to use from these dispensers and I think they've done a good job with the overall packing look.

Overall, I am very pleased with this product. I am keen to try the other scents just because I am so impressed with the way this one smells and feels in my hair.

Love these two products!!

Hair is hydrated which is something I’ve always struggled with in winter. Soft, fly aways under control but I didn’t find it soothed my scalp in anyway.

Scent is beautiful and not overwhelming in anyway.

Only negative is the conditioner bottle would be better if in a pump like the shampoo.

I love the packaging is beautiful and looks so sleek and lovely in the shower. However, the shampoo comes in a 400mL size conditioner in 200mL which is a little inconvenient. I found a little bit of shampoo went a long way and you need a little more of the conditioner as it is very thick. I think in the long term you would go through the conditioner way faster and need to purchase more often due it only being half the size.

I love the whole organic and more natural idea behind the product. It has no sulfates, parabens, silicones or colourants which is really nice. Also a plus that it is vegan. I also noticed the bottle stated it was made from 100% recycled materials.

I enjoyed the smell- it’s a mixture of lavender and coconut. If you didn’t like lavender you probably wouldn’t like it as much especially because the smell definitely does linge in your hair even after it has dried. . It could be used as a multi-sex product as well because it does have a slight masculine scent. I really did like the smell and found it really calming and relaxing to use.

The shampoo and conditioner work really well together. I found my hair felt very clean and almost slight stripped after using the shampoo. It was very knotty but using the conditioner afterwards puts back all the moisture and detangles. Would reccomend that the products be used together!! The regimen when used together made my hair feel very hydrated and smooth!! I loved the way it felt after using it but noticed it probably didn’t look as shiny as usual.

Overall I loved the concept behind it and the smell. I found my hair felt very hydrated and smooth after using it. Major fault is the conditioner only being half the size of the shampoo.

For starters, love the packaging. It’s a bit of a new look for L’Oréal, and I like it. It’s plastic and I’m trying to reduce the amount of plastic I’m using for beauty products but love that it’s recyclable. Another plus is the lack of nastys in it, sulphate free etc. I think it’s becoming a must for products to have less nastys and more natural stuff.

Onto the products, they’re a good combo. I only wash my hair once or twice a week because otherwise my scalp freaks out, so two weeks to trial was a little tricky for me - need a bit more time to really give it a go.

Not usually a big fan of lavender but it’s super subtle in these products so didn’t bother me.

Was good on my scalp which is super sensitive, and it left my hair shiny and soft. So far so good.

I am thrilled with the Botanicals Lavender Soothing Therapy Regime. This product solves every one of my issues in one product! My fine hair has more volume and is smoother than it has ever been without using salon products (and paying salon prices). After two weeks of using this product my skin is less inflammed - it really is gentle and I feel no stinging sensation. I am also so pleased to find that this regime also contains no suplhates and silicones as this is also on my wish list. This really is the perfect product for me.
