Herbal Essences- Bee strong collection

Image from herbalessences.com
 I have always been a big fan of herbal essences and was rather excited to try the new bee strong range, firstly because i'm obsessed with honey scented products and honey in general as well as my hair being a bit unhealthy at the moment and in desperate need of a few inches cutting off :o. I had a quick read of what herbal essences had to say about their new product and it all sounded pretty darn good...

"Combing damage got you down? Bulk up strength with the Bee Strong collection! This formula containing honey & apricot extracts works to repair the protective outer layer of each strand of hair to leave it silky and strong against combing damage, after just 1 wash! Incredible??"

After hearing all that I decided to pick the products up on my next trip to boots.

400ml bottles at £3.89 each 
The shampoo and conditioner are lovely to use with a gorgeous honey and apricot scent which does linger for a few hours after washing. I think the products are very good value for money as the condition of my hair feels just as good if not better than using slightly more expensive products. I took them on holiday with me as I like to take something that will really hydrate my hair and prevent it getting dry and frizzy and this did a pretty good job.
Leave in conditioner £4.79
my favorite product from the line is this leave in conditioner / strengthening cream which I spray into my damp hair before blow drying. Due to it being in a spray formula it is very light weight and hasn't weighed my hair down if I have curled my hair once dried. The results from it are very silky and tames my frizzy bits, I'm not sure about the long term benefits it offers but as an instant fix it is brilliant. So far I am impressed and would repurchase in the future as well as trying their hair mask for in the shower.
