Sunsilk Radiant Shine Shampoo, Conditioner Review
What the Company claims: 96% of girls in India desire shiny hair. However daily stresses like harsh sunlight and excessive pollution may rob the hair of essential shine and moisture, leaving it dull and limp. Sunsilk Radiant Shine shampoo and conditioner combines the nourishing qualities of five oils which have beneficial effects on hair – Argon, Jojoba, Camellia, Almond and Olive. The dual effects of oiling and washing softens the hair texture not just from the outside, but ensures that hair receives nourishment at periodic intervals. The light oils permeate up to three layers deep and give hair a natural sheen that stays as the day progresses. So you can show off your shine that stays on and on!

Expert Tip for Shiny Hair: Vitamin E is vital for luscious shiny locks. It is found in foods such as avocadoes, berries and nuts. Blowdry your hair inside out and work your way up from tips to the scalp. Always use a heat protector spray before heat styling your hair. Make sure you up your iron intake in your diet.

It comes in a off white and golden bottle..shampoo in the trademark Sunsilk packaging with the slanted cap..and conditioner in a tube packaging..

The shampoo foams really well..in one wash, hair is thoroughly cleansed..and feels smooth and with minimum tangles..

Conditioner is very creamy yellow in color and smells amazing too..and does make hair softer..

I loved it..it actually makes hair smooth and shiny..not mirror like shine obviously..I hope no one was expecting that 😀 But, definitely a nice healthy sheen.

Pros:

* vit. E & aloe strengthen elasticity, making hair soft, strong and shiny

To use: Massage into wet hair. Rinse. Follow with brahmi & peppermint conditioner.

Ingredients: purified water, decyl glucoside, sodium cocoyl glutamate, sodium cocoyl apple amino acid, hydrolyzed wheat & soy protein, tocopherol acetate (vit.

MRP: Rs.640/- for 200ml, Rs.200/- for 50ml

As you read above, it is completely free of all chemicals..and it totally natural.. Omved Brahmi & Peppermint Shampoo comes in a long pump bottle..its a runny liquid with a brown tint..smells soo strongly of peppermint..like ‘polo’ !

Brahmi and Peppermint are supposed to be very good for the hair..brahmi strengthens the hair and peppermint helps in circulation as mentioned above..

At first, it needs a lot of qty to completely cleanse the hair..also coz its SLS free..and so does not foam much too..cleansed hair well, helps in frizz and also gives a smoother sleeker look to hair..but if you looking for volume or bounce, then this would not help..also it did not help in dryness and conditioner was needed after this..

This is a 50ml bottle..which lasted some 6-7 uses..so it definitely is quite expensive..

Pros:

1. Cleanses scalp well.
2. Helped in frizz and made hair straighter, sleeker.
3. Lovee the peppermint smell.
4. Has no chemicals and parabens and all natural.
5. Pump packaging is convenient.

Cons:

1. Expensive !
2. Needs a lot of qty to foam and clean the scalp.
3. Will not give volume.

Overall its a nice shampoo..and if you like straighter hair..and not a fan of volume, you can give this a try..also if you love peppermint smell..its available HERE at natural mantra.

I would recommend checking out NaturalMantra.com for other paraben and SLS free options..there is  Soultree, Omved, Rustic Art, Just Herbs, Auravedic, Tvam, Neev, etc for shampoos or other bath and body products..more so for baby products too..you do not want to use all those chemicals on your baby for sure..also they have Stevia…which I am ordering soon..a natural sugar substitute..if you are on a diet, a diabetic or just want to avoid sugar but cannot give your tea or coffee a miss, you should try Stevia !

I have used the normal Dove range before and liked it too. I love the way Dove makes my hair feel. My hair is softer and less frizzier.

Its a yellow colored shampoo of normal consistency..and has those sparkling shimmers..has that trademark Dove smell. It lathers well and cleanses well in one wash. Does not make my hair feel dry at all.

Pros:

1. Lathers and cleanses well..you do not need lots of shampoo for it.
2. Does not ever make my hair feel dry.
3. My hair is softer and less frizzy as with the older range.
4. I like the smell.
5. I loved the whole new Nourishing range packaging.
6. Its quite economical and easily available everywhere unlike my old Herbal Essences which was not so easily available.
7. I do not know how much but the blend of coconut,sunflower and almond oils does help.

Cons:

1. It has SLS and silicones..the build up of which is not so good for the hair.

Other than that I did not find any cons with it. Dove range always suit my hair.

I love the packaging of this ! It has this chakri shaped outing which removes your conditioner like a chakri and has both golden and white ribbons i.e white and yellow parts in line..which come out together. Its fun to use it !

Even this has a nice smell. I love the conditioner even more than the shampoo. And I can never skip using this after shampoo. Love the way my hair feels with it.

Their pros and cons are almost the same as above..as even this contains silicones. But then mostly all shampoos and conditioners do..coz otherwise our hair would not feel the way we want them to.
