Organix Anti-Breakage Keratin Oil shampoo and conditioner review

Did I mention that I'm getting more into keratin-infusing hair products? Hair has to be strong to grow longer.

This is a relatively new product in the Organix field. This line promises keratin proteins that "reinforce each strand, increasing elasticity to resist breakage caused by brushing and styling, while argan oil conditions and smoothes creating a luminescent shine." Sounds good right? Retails at Target for $8 each.

Considering my past history with Organix products, I'm surprised I picked this up, but I liked that keratin was further up the ingredients list compared to the other keratin products I picked up. More keratin, sounds good to me. And no sulfates!

The packaging is just like the other Organix products, sturdy and won't break if I drop it in the shower like I tend to.

The smell is kinda strong...and too sweet. But the product itself is really nice! Lathers nicely without sulfates and conditions well without leaving residue. My hair is so soft and fluffy, I don't need to put in any other product afterwards. Cool :)

My rating? 8/10 -- if only it didn't smell like that.

Organix Renewing Moroccan Argan Oil Intense Moisturizing Treatment review

A couple months ago, I reviewed the shampoo and conditioner of this Organix line. They were an extreme disappointment, I don't know why I tried with this one. I was looking for a holy grail deep conditioner and picked this one up at CVS for about $8.

The packaging is really cute. I love the colors and the sturdy material. It feels like it won't crack if I drop it in the bathtub, which I've done before (slippery soapy fingers!).

Why is this deep conditioner more watery than the everyday conditioner? It sank into my hair...and sat there. I waited 5 minutes, rinsed it out, my hair felt exactly the same as before I put the deep conditioner in.

My hair felt like...sticky straw after I towel dried. I needed to put 3 squirts of moroccan argan oil in my hair to make it feel remotely normal.

Rating: 0/10

I just don't like any product in this line.

Organix Moroccan Argan Oil Shampoo & Conditioner review

I picked these up at CVS while shopping with Claudia. Yeah, I go shopping at CVS instead of the mall. That's what I do.

We were actually there to find a hairspray for Claudia and she wanted a sample size because she wanted to try it out before she bought the full size. Smart girl. Well, right there next to the sample hair sprays were the sample shampoos and conditioners. I saw these and got excited. Organix is supposed to be a brand with no sulfates. That plus the moroccan argan oil = heaven for my hair, supposedly.

I tried this two times, getting what I could out of the sample sizes. Each time was horrible. The shampoo didn't lather up much, which was understandable due to the lack of sulfates. However, I've tried sulfate free shampoo before. It was nothing like this. The Organix shampoo left my hair feeling stringy and tangly. So I put on the matching conditioner. It was thick and smelled pretty gross. It did detangle my hair. It took about 2 minutes to rinse everything out, that's how thick the product was.

Even after all that, my hair felt so gross. It felt greasy and thick and heavy :( It smelled HORRIBLE too. After work, I rushed to wash it out with my regular CVS clarifying shampoo. Much better. But my hair still smells bad after 2 washes.

My rating? 0/10. Ugh. Don't bother.
