REVIEW OF HERBAL ESSENCES BODY ENVY VOLUMIZING SHAMPOO
Wednesday, May 13, 2015
Summer is here with a drum roll. We can feel the scorching
heat in the air. We are enjoying every bit of it as we get to
wear all those colorful summer dresses from our wardrobes. However, along with this,
there are some new companions too- sweat, stickiness, oily skin & hair and
whatnot. Gross… I know. Right now, we can jump on anything to get a nice volume in our
flat, oily hair.
Today, I am discussing with you guys one serious issue that almost
everybody suffers from during the summer. I am talking about oily scalp and hair.
And those unfortunate ones who have fine, flat hair like mine, this time of the
year makes it more miserable.
So, let’s see whether we can find any solution to this or not.
About the product:
In the bottle it says:
100%
Body/ Volume
Volumizing
Shampoo with Citrus Essences
Why we
love it:
With
botanical silk. Shampoo cleans to reveal natural shine.
Turn up
the volume
Take
those stunning strands to higher ground by lathering up with this lightweight
formula. Just as citrus is exhilarating, this formula gives your luscious locks
body and bounce.
Height
couture
Don’t
worry, with body envy volumizing conditioner, you’ll get the volume you want
without the towering beehive look.
YOU
KNOW THE DRILL: Fill up on this light, body-infusing lather. Rinse and repeat
for the full effect.
Ingredients:
My experience:
I have used this shampoo 5 to 6 times now. And one thing I can say
is that this definitely gives volume to my flat, limp hair. But hold your
horses, guys. I know this sounds tempting, but overall I am not super happy with
this product.
Now I know, by this time you are raising your eyebrows and saying,
“Oh! Come on, this is giving you volume, right. What else is your complaint now?”
First of all, I want to say this is
completely my own experience. This could vary from person to person. Though
this shampoo has given me maximum volume, it is full of Sulfates. I have expected a little bit of roughness which is good for my oily hair. But as soon as I have rinsed the shampoo, I have felt like it has taken every last
bit of oil from my hair. This may sound odd, but it is like that. 😢My hair feels like 'straws' after rinsing the shampoo. I have used conditioner to get rid
of the ‘strawness’ (usually, I avoid Conditioner as it makes my hair oily). And after that, the rough texture has gone. But every time, whenever I've used this shampoo, I've felt like all the natural oils are washing away with this.
One thing to mention is that this shampoo smells amazing, a fruity scent with a subtle hint of floral notes. During the Summer, that feels amazingly fresh. The shampoo is light yellow in color in an orangy bottle which looks tempting. But the weird texture of my hair after using this shampoo will keep me away from this in the future.

I don't think I am buying this again. It is possible that after some more use, I am finding this Shampoo little useful. But so far, I am not very impressed.
Cheers!!!
