OriginalMineralFine Intellect Conditioner 350 ml

I must start by making special mention of the bottle which looks stylish, but far more importantly it fits perfectly in the hand and remarkably non slippery to hold. Key ingredients here are almond oil, Vitamin E, Lilly Pilly and nettle extract all sourced in Australia. The first two of these elements certainly give effective conditioning leaving hair both silky and strong making brushing very easy whilst the third is claimed to build volume-certainly the hair has good body after use and feels light without any sense of greasiness or that unpleasant residues have been left behind. You also get a certain level of UV protection which will probably help coloured hair to maintain its tint over time. The fragrance is rather fruity, a touch citrussy even and the texture is of milk and feels pleasant on the hair. The dispenser in the cap allows you to control the amount you use quite precisely which will be welcome to many given the premium price tag. This issue is the only negative and would make this quite an expensive choice if you have long hair. Nonetheless a conditioner that is really enjoyable to use on your hair.

This is a really lovely conditioner.It smells wonderful, fresh and fruity, which lingers on my hair for a long time.The formula is nice and creamy, without being heavy and greasy. It doesn't weigh my hair down or leave it looking lank, it gives me super soft, shiny hair.It rinses clean away easily with no residue left behind.The bottle is a little unusual in so much as it is a square bottle, at first I though this was just a gimmick to make it stand out from the crowd, but this design is much easier to store in my shower tray.The lid is a flip top which is great for when you have wet hands and you never drop it in the shower!

First, it's difficult to find out what ingredients are in this conditioner from the product listing, so here they are:Aqua (Purified Water), Decyl Glucoside, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Glycol Distearate & Laureth-4, Polyquarternium-7, Coco-Glucoside, Glyceryl Oleate, Glyceryl Stearate, Macroystis Pyrifera (Tasmanian Sea Kelp), Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, Aloe (Vera) Barbadensis Leaf Extract*, Methyl Glucose Dioleate, Polyquaternium-10, Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate, Phenoxyethanol, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5), Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate (UV Inhibitor), Parfum (Fragrance), Citric Acid *Certified organic.I have a very sensitive scalp - I'm allergic to parabens and laureath, amongst others . I get reactions carrying from extreme dandruff to suppurating sores.It's very difficult to find stuff I can use in the supermarkets, and when I do find something it feels slightly compromised by the ingredients of uses.It's hard not to wince when you see the price, but I'm really impressed with what's in the bottle - the smell, the texture - but especially the results; my hair is very fine, and this leaves it feeling so soft and smooth, even into the next day.It has UVF protection, for colors hair against the sun.I totally recommend trying this out if you're thinking about it - it's delicious. I'll be buying more of it.Edit 12-04-17: with regular use, I still have half the bottle left. It's lasted very well and is proving to be good value.

Now here's a thing; intelligent hair conditioner ! The blurb on the bottle claims "Healthy hair begin when its free from Stress! how about that.I have to confess that though technologically sound I do still experience wrap/packaging rage and trying to discover how to get into this product induced a slight sensation of same. The top posed a mystery, did I twist it, pull ir or what? eventually I perused the top ~ not easy to read with its chic logo immersed in same colour instruction to "Push" whichI duly did and was rewarded with an opening plus a squeeze to find the silky milky product !!So bamboozling over I washed my hair and then applied the conditioner which is rich and subtly fragrant giving me a great head of healthy bouncy hair. Will try it on the family to see how they get on"Fine Intellect " seems like a philosophical approach to hair care and having clever hair gives a great boost to the confidence

The packaging of this conditioner really made me smile; it's kind of like a stylised take on a milk carton! The rounded edges are really satisfying and it looks great on the side of the bath tub. I know, I know – that's not really what you want to hear about a hair product first. But it's what you notice first.This OriginalMineral conditioner has a very light fruity floral scent. It's barely noticeable and great if, like me, you'd rather smell of your fragrance than of your conditioner. It's an opaque colour and the texture is light and slightly liquid.I tend to buy expensive conditioner, so the bar is set pretty high, but I'm definitely open to trying out a new product. Does this work? Yes. I used a fairly small amount, left it on for about 20 seconds, and then rinsed thoroughly. I didn't use a hair dryer on my hair. At the end of the day my hair is still soft and has more body that usual. It also isn't greasy at all, which is a problem I sometimes have when I use conditioner. I'm hopeful that using a hair dryer would produce even more volume when using this conditioner, but I really like that I can still see the effect even when I let my hair dry by itself.
