organix moisturizing grapefruit mango butter collection


I've been on the hunt for this stuff for a minute after seeing the ads for it. Yes, I was enticed by the pretty pink bottle but also because I've read that mango butter is great for dry hair. I tried the usual suspects (Target, Walmart, Walgreens, Longs) and I even contacted the Organix customer service to no avail.  Over the weekend I was shopping in the large Bed Bath and Beyond with the Harmon drugstore inside and ta-da!  There it was.  I scooped up the shampoo and conditioner, took one whiff, and was in LOVE.  This stuff smells a-ma-zing.  The scent of coconut is usually my fav but I pretty much love anything island-y smelling. 

Fast forward to today and I finally tried the goods.  The shampoo: left my hair feeling a little stripped.  It's possible that I used to much because I was excited to try it.  The Organix products are sulfate free so they shouldn't be drying, but my hair felt a little too clean.  The conditioner: I was a little skeptical after squirting it in my hands because it felt a little runny but once I worked it in and washed it out my hair was pleasantly smooth and pretty tangle free.

The bottom line: I wouldn't depend on this line for moisture, but I definitely will repurchase for the scent alone.  I can see myself using the conditioner to co-wash my hair and scrub my scalp.  The shampoo I'll probably alternate with my trusty Creme of Nature.
