Since I am a fruit lover of all kinds, this new shampoo from Organix caught my eye.  And the fact there was a “TRY ME FREE” offer attached to the bottle was nice too.  I found them at Target and there was a good selection, from Cucumber Yogurt to Coconut Milk.  I think grapefruit mango butter would be neat, but I didn’t see them there.

passionfruit-shampI decided on the passionfruit and guava shampoo and conditioner. The smell from the bottle is nice and fruity, but in the shower it’s more like fruit soda.  Not too much like guava as I expected.  The nicest guava scent I’ve came across is from the soap and candle company Pacifica.

Here is a list of some of the ingredients: organic passionfruit extract and guava adds essential vitamins and anti-oxidants, and orange blossom infused with honey.

Not only is it made from organic fruit extracts, but it’s also free from harsh chemicals. And the best part for me is that all the shampoos and conditioners are sulfate-free.  And bottles are eco-friendly, manufactured from materials containing recycled post-consumer resin.

All labels are printed utilizing environmental inks and compostable label film made from annually renewable resource corn, not from petrochemicals.


organicguava As for leaving my hair nice and soft, it did it’s job.  But it also brought out the natural wave of my hair.  Some days it’s nice, but other days I prefer less wave.  Overall it is a nice shampoo, but I’m not sure if I would buy it again. Especially since it retails for $6.99.  I think that’s a bit too expensive for shampoo.  I normally get a big bottle of sulfate free shampoo from Wholes Food 365 line at half the price.

    They also like to use fruits fragrant in children shampoo, sometimes Lee would use the watermelon, mango or cherry, and if they’ve a new kind, then she would ask me if she would like it. I need to try hers to see if I’d like it.

  2. Lee is funny…. she would ask you if she would like it? :)

    Watermelon sounds good… reminds me of summer days.

    Sometimes she would let me guess of which is her favorites, but I think it’s her way of tricking me into telling her because she can’t decide.

  4. Hi Nye,
    Maybe kids do that to seek the parent’s approval? And also it means “parent’s know me best!”… until they become teenagers and want to be left alone. JK. ;)

  5. The shampoo was really free as I got my rebate of $6.99. About 4-6 weeks later. Thanks Organix.
