Nature Box Avocado Oil Range Review

Firstly, the bottles were pretty and fairly easy to apply all the products, most had pump applicators. Conditioner - had to use a lot of pumps and left my hair quite dry Shampoo - clear and clean and made my hair shiny Hair treatment - helped with frizz and was great after towel drying to improve my hair. The bottle was too small though. Body lotion - easy to apply, melted into my skin and was very moisturising. Shower gel - made me feel clean and moisturised

There was good points for the range, love the packaging, the ease of application and the fact that it was made with avocado oil and vegan certified. It also, mostly did what it said but, I found the product cost a bit over the top and the smell, not overly pleasant. It's a nice range but not worth it, in my opinion.

Thanks so very much BR for the opportunity to review this entire range. I was super excited to receive the full Avocado Nature Box range. What appealed to me most about the avocado was the promise to nourish and repair. I really enjoy products that harness the power of nature, so was excited to see the benefits of avocado oil - it's great to eat, so much be amazing topically right?

The packaging of the entire range is really striking. The green, black and gold stands out and looks really nice on my bathroom shelf. The instructions on each product were clear and easy to follow. The shower gel has a flip top lid, while the rest have twist lock pumps. I personally prefer the 'unscrew to release' style pumps because I do a lot of travelling and it keeps the product safe inside the bottles, but if you don't travel, the twist system is a lot easier to use.

Unfortunately the biggest put-off for me, was the scent - I hated it! I love my products to be nicely scented and something to compliment my perfume. This scent reminded me of cheap hotel toiletries with the slightest whiff of cat-pee - yuck!

The shower gel and lotion for me, were nothing special at all. While they worked, I didn't feel the gel was particularly nourishing when cleansing, and the lotion felt quite thin and just not a pleasant sensation.

The hair-care was overall pretty good, while the secret repair cream was the saving grace! I used the trio all 3 ways (shampoo and conditioner; shampoo, conditioner and cream as a conditioner; and shampoo, conditioner and cream as a leave in treatment). By far the best results were using the cream as a leave in treatment. It left my hair feeling soft and nourished without feeling greasy or lank.

Overall it seems like a decent range, and has convinced me to try the Coconut one

I was very excited to be picked for this trial team as I'm always on the look out for natural products that are free from parabens and other nasties.

After trying all five products I am on this fence with this range. I absolutely loved the body lotion and shower gel. The scent was light and refreshing and not too overpowering if you were using several products at once. Both of these products left my dry skin feeling nourished and thoroughly mosturised. On the other hand I found that while the hair care products left my hair feeling clean and soft and improved the appearance of my split ends, they also left my hair looking flat, lank and slightly darker than usual. They did wonders for my husband's thick hair however, so it all depends on your hair type. Sadly I just don't think they were right for me.

Overall I will definitely buy the body lotion and shower gel again but will give the shampoo, conditioner and hair treatment a miss.

Being called Nature Box I was expecting this to be a completely natural range, however on looking at the ingredients lists on the bottle and comparing them to my other products in my bathroom they were quite similar, so although they have natural ingredients added they arent 100% natural.

I liked the haircare range better than the skin care. However for me the smell is what is holding this product back. I dont know how to describe it, but it is not plesant. At times I thought it smelt like beer, and others like rubbing avocado directly on your skin.

The bottles are also not designed the best. The shower gel has a normal top and all the rest have pump bottles. However you need to pump quite hard to get the shampoo and conditioner out of the bottles and I needed about 8 pumps of each for my long hair, I suppose its one way to get a workout while you shower ;)

On a good note, my hair felt amazing, clean and hydrated without being greasy. I felt the body lotion worked well also but left my skin feeling a little greasy afterwards.

I will continue to use all the products until they are finished, but am unsure at this point if I would purchase it again

For my this range was somewhat inconsistent for me. The starts of it were the shampoo and conditioner - both of which I would buy again as they left my hair feeling refreshed but not oily as I have found a lot of products do with my oil prone hair. It was also a bonus having the conditioner work well with diluting the pink hair dye I used.

I wouldn't reach for the hair treatment again purely because I have other products that hydrate my hair to a point that doesn't look like it is coated in conditioner.

The shower gel smelled off to me and didn't lather up as much as I would like and the body lotion was a very temporary moisturizing feeling (which is why I feel like it didn't stick to my hands much).

I would say definitely use the shampoo and conditioner in conjunction with each other as they provided a great result on my hair. After consistent use of these products I could tell my hair loved it. I ended up washing it less because it kept my hair fresher for longer.

The smells of the products varied from product to product, and the amount of product you get per bottle was actually a generous amount. The idea of it being vegan was also a great initiative and I think they nailed some of it.

I was so lucky to be invited to trial this range, thank you BR! This range is paraben free and vegan which is great, and comes in partially recycled plastic. I love that almost all the products come in pump bottles because it is so convenient, especially in the shower. I have to say I am not a big fan of the scent of this range. I don't hate it, but it isn't the sort of scent that makes you go, wow, that smells so good, sort of thing. The scent was one of the biggest downfalls for me with the body lotion, because it is not the sort of smell I want to slather all over my arms and legs. However it wasn't much of a problem for the shampoo, conditioner or body wash since the product gets washed away, leaving just a clean smell. My favourite products were definitely the shampoo, conditioner and repair cream together. They left my hair feeling clean but still nourished and super soft. The body lotion and body wash were okay, but nothing special. As a whole I really loved this range, however I am looking forward to buying the coconut version, because I think that would have all the great benefits that the avocado range has, but with a better fragrance.

Ok I am a bit fussy when it comes to using natural hair product, I work for an Organic Hair Colour Company and use their salon only Organic products - BUT this range actually surprised me!

I was lucky to receive the Avocado Oil Range of Nature Box products. I was pleasantly surprised by the packaging and colour of the bottles, I think they look really cool, definitely make you think avocado! Over the space of about a week I tried all of these lovely products not only on myself but also on my 6 year old daughter.

The shampoo, conditioner, treatment and body wash all have pumps which is great - the body wash just has a flip top which is fine to use. All of the pumps seemed to work fine with no issues. Ok the smell is definitely natural and some may even say unpleasant? However I really liked it as it's not sweet and sickly like some products can be. The avocado oil is 100% cold pressed which is great.

The range was easy to use and actually worked really well on my hair and even better on my daughters. One thing I really liked was the leave in (or wash out) hair treatment especially for my daughter as her hair gets really tangly after washing - this made a huge difference and made her hair easier to brush and smell clean and fresh.

All in all I really do like this range of products and I actually would purchase these again, I think they are good value for money and work well.

i was so excited to get picked to trail all these products! when it came in the mail i could smell it before i even opened the bag. It smelled amazing!!! 5 bottles in the set, Shampoo, Conditioner, hair treatment, shower gel and body lotion. i love how all the bottles match, and that all bar one had pump lids, it kind of annoyed me that the shower gel doesn't, would have been much easier to use if it had of. from the 5 i loved 3 of the products, the shampoo, conditioner and body lotion. they were all amazing and did what you would expect them to do, but for me they were better than other brands i have used before. however the shower gel and hair treatment left a little to be desired, i will use them up, but wouldn't replace them when finished. where as the other 3 i will probably buy more of when they are finished. i have pretty damaged hair and after using them for awhile have have to say my hair does feel nicer, softer and more bouncy and it smells great too! my skin feels really good after using the lotion also, it feels moisturized well into the next day, which is nice when you have dry skin.

I was lucky enough to trial all 5 avocado oil products which are vegan, free from nasties and made with 100% cold pressed avocado oil. I did find that the fragrance wasn't thrilling for me but overall the products were great so that outweighed that fact and also, I think it would be very hard to get a lovely smelling avocado oil product. For each individual product, please read my other reviews on them for more detail. Great that these product containers are made from 25% recycled plastic also gets a big tick from me.
