Review: Garnier Fructis Color Shield Shampoo and Conditioner

Today is another sample! I was a bit hesitant to give this one a try as I haven't had much luck with Garnier shampoos.  But, wanted to try it out just to see, and this one actually worked for me! 

Overall Thoughts:  As this is a sample, I can only give my first impressions.  Since I only used it for three days and my dye job is old and already toast, I cannot comment on how it prevented color fade.  So I will comment just on its properties as a shampoo and conditioner.  I was happy to say this is the first time I have been happy with a Garnier shampoo and conditioner.  It made my hair feel really smooth and soft.  The only part that was frizzy was the ends, but only Tresseme split remedy has made my ends smooth (yay a million split ends from a razor hair cut...a year ago) This one didn't irritate my scalp too much either.  

This is the first Garnier shampoo/conditioner I would ever consider buying (so far).  I am glad I was able to find something that works for my oily, super fine, pin straight, and damaged hair.  The only thing that made me question this one is my scalp was a little itchy, but then again, almost everything makes my super sensitive scalp be evil.  But shampoo is one of those things that varies so much from person to person. That is why I love samples, I am able to see if a product works without being stuck with a giant bottle of product I have to try to pawn off to someone.

Review: Garnier Fructis Pure Clean Shampoo and Conditioner

Today is a perfect example why I love samples.  I got this sample and was SO excited.  I do try to be earth friendly and usually like natural products.  This sounded like it would be a great shampoo as it didn't seem to have a lot of extra harsh stuff in it. 

Overall Thoughts: This shampoo did clean my hair fairly well.  It did not make my hair extra oily (a big deal for my oily super fine hair) The conditioner wasn't very think and did not make the ends of my hair feel very moisturized.  What disappointed me the most was how it made my hair a bit dull.  It seemed to take away any natural shine my hair may have had.  It also dried out my scalp and made it itchy.  I am glad I got this sample before I went out and bought the full size product.
