Influenster L'Oreal Ever Cleansing Balms VoxBox

I'm not one to change up my hair products but recently I have been in a little funk with my hair. I have curly-wavey hair (depending on the day/weather/if my hair wants to cooperate). Recently my hair hasn't really been curling like normal and has lost some of it volume. My hairstylist says that as we get older our hair can change, so I could just be losing my curls. I refuse to believe this because as of now I shower, throw some mousse in it and my hairs done. I don't want to loose this routine because its fast and easy and my hair looks presentable in the end. I was lucky enough to be chosen to try out L'Oreals Ever Cleansing Balm.

This is L'Oreals EverCurl 6-in-1 Cleansing Balm for curly hair, this is apart of L'Oreals New #CleansingBalms line. This is my first sulfate-free product I have tried. I have only heard good things about sulfate free products and how good they are supposed to be for your hair. This product is a 6-in-1 cleaning balm, it is said to cleanse, treat, soften, condition, detangle and sine. The instructions say to use this in place of your conditioner and to leave in for 3 to 5 minutes before rinsing it out. Unlike other products it says to use 6 to 8 pumps and more for longer hair. This is a non-lather product so your need quite a bit to wash your hair, I have long and thick hair so I used about 10 pumps. It retails from anywhere between $9.99 at Target to $11.99 at Ulta.

I expected this product to be somewhat thick like the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle, but it really was kinda in the middle between thick and thin. Overall I wasn't a huge fan of the product, my final reaction was pretty "meh". After my hair finally dried it looked a bit stringy, my curls weren't really any different than before, my hair felt dry and I think it kinda looked like horse hair. I don't think it really gave me any more volume than normal. I'm not sure if it didn't work because my hair has just been in a funk or this is how the product worked. Let me know if you have tried it and how it has been working for you. Or even better, let me know if you have curly hair and if you have any holy grail product for it! I would love to get my curls back.

Im not one for switching up my hair products because I know what works for me so why change it? But I figured that its time to try something out since I haven't tried any different hair products since maybe freshman year of high school.

The first thing I did when I received this shampoo and conditioner combo was look up the company seeing as I have never heard of them before. I found out that SoapBox is an amazing company. SoapBox donates one bar of soap, fresh water, or vitamin supplements to a child in need for every product sold. So to start off I'm already a huge fan of this company.

Now onto the product. I believe that the shampoo and conditioner line is new for this company and that they originally started off with bar and liquid soap. I received the bataua fruit shampoo and conditioner. They explain that the bataua fruit is native to the Amazon rainforests of Brazil and long regarded for its root-to-tip hair repairing talent. Packed with essential fatty acids and amino acids, Bataua fruit oil works by nourishing both your scalp and hair. I couldn't quite put my finger on what the shampoo and conditioner smelled like but its definitely not a bad scent. The scent doesn't linger in the hair for long though. The shampoo lather nicely and the conditioner is nice as well and left my hair soft and smooth. I did have a bit of issue getting the tangles out of my hair at the beginning of the conditioner process. One thing I do love about these products is that it is sulfate and paraben-free! 

Not only are these products affordable but they are now being sold at my favorite store... Target! You can also purchase their other products on the SoapBox website. I most definitely would suggest these products to friends because they don't only have an awesome product they have an amazing mission!
