Schwarzkopf Supersoft Smoothie shampoo and conditioners

Schwarzkopf Supersoft Smoothie shampoo and conditioners

"Fruity, smooth and almost good enough to eat, Supersoft Smoothies are the only shampoos and conditioners to contain yoghurt protein. And with five variants, there's a Smoothie for everyone."

What we thought: My hair is fine and limp and a very ordinary fudge colour. My scalp is also sensitive to the colder weather so to use a luxuriously moisturising shampoo and conditioner is not only a real treat but incredibly soothing also. A little goes a long way which means the product lasts for ages. The shampoo is lovely and thick without being heavy and the conditioner is wonderfully creamy and spreads easily through your hair. Unlike some moisturising products for dry, damaged or limp hair, the product isn't at all heavy. Even better, it's so good I don't need to wash my hair everyday!

RRP: £2.09 Schwarzkopf stockist number: 0800 328 9214 available nationwide.

Charles Worthington - Salon Shine Results Heat Protection Spray

Charles Worthington - Salon Shine Results Heat Protection Spray

"Complete your salon shine look. This comprehensive range of Salon Shine Results styling products provides superior results whether you want volume, texture, or a super-sleek style. Every product is formulated with glossing shine boosting properties to complete your style with a high-shine finish."

What we thought: Charles Worthington claims that "this antioxidant spray shields hair from heat damage and locks in shine". Well, I used it this morning before blow drying my hair and I seriously got a couple of compliments from work when I arrived. My hair felt soft and smooth on application and still does even though I've been to the gym at lunchtime and am approaching the end of the day. It's important to protect your hair from blow drying and styling and I definitely noticed the difference.

KEVIN MURPHY STAYING.ALIVE

Kevin Murphy STAYING.ALIVE

"A leave in treatment/detangler that contains olive leaf extracts and hydrolised silk, pure essential oils and an acid PH that discourages further damage. Rich in antioxidants to overcome dryness by increasing elasticity."

What we thought: A very light mist with an unusual yet refreshing fragrance that I was quite happy to apply to clean hair (disappointingly however the mild fragrance disappeared very quickly). Love the bottle as it's small enough to hold comfortably in your hand as you spritz around your head. Once applied, my thick long hair was easier to detangle and felt smoother as it dried. At almost £13 for 150ml, this product isn't cheap but if you prefer something light and less chemically-based then this should be a good investment, especially to protect against the harshness of the colder months.

MOP C-Straight Smoothing Conditioner

MOP C-Straight Smoothing Conditioner

"This moisture rich conditioner eliminates tangles and delivers visibly smooth texture that you can run your fingers through."

What we thought: Rather a nice refreshing product to use. It didn't feel heavy and the longer it was left on, the more I could feel the ingredients getting to work with a citrus and minty sensation. Hair felt and smelt lovely once the product was rinsed out but I found that I still needed to run a comb through afterwards to remove tangles. Stored in a tube meant application was incredibly easy. Once hair was dry, it was noticely smoother and more manageable.
