Review of Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Restorative Shampoo
By Kelly B

Product Name: Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Restorative Shampoo

Packaging The packaging for the Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Brilliance Restorative Shampoo is a simple cylindrical white plastic bottle. The diameter of the bottle is perfect, it fits comfortably into my small hands, making it very easy to use. The 200ml size of Barefoot Botanicals Restorative Shampoo is a perfect handy size and not too heavy.The texture of the bottle is a matt finish and feels a little rubber like which gives a good grip, excellent when coupled with wet hands in the shower.

The opening is a twist style which reveals a hole in the top. Such a brilliant completely smooth design that creates no sharp edges that might possibly injure (particularly important with soft wet skin).

The shape of the bottle being cylindrical means that standing the bottle upside down when the product is below half full is simple. (No need to stand it against anything so it won't topple.)

The packaging of Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Shampoo looks very simple yet stylish and elegant. Maybe a little too text heavy on the front, but very informative.

Application The texture of the Barefoot Restorative Shampoo is creamy and feels rich and nourishing when applied. It has a lovely delicate scent of orange blossom which must be the neuroli essential oil it contains. This fragrance which is known to be relaxing creates a warm and pampering atmosphere. Barefoot Botanicals Restorative Shampoo feels a real treat to use. When the rich creamy lather is rinsed away surprisingly the hair feels squeaky clean. I mean that literally, the hair really squeaks as you squeeze the water out of it.

Ingredients The bottle is very informative and full ingredients are listed which is very helpful. It contains Rosa Mosqueta oil and olive extract for glossy sheen. Nettle extract which is said to balance sebum levels in the scalp. Dead sea salts for texture and bounce. Aloe Vera known for its nourishing properties. Impressively the Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Brilliance Restorative Shampoo also contains calming and soothing herbal extracts such as calendula and comfrey which will be very good for sensitive scalps.

Many of the ingredients in Barefoot Botanicals Restorative Shampoo are organic and reassuringly as stated on the bottle 'no chemical nasties', such as parabens or SLS's are used.

Results The Barefoot Rosa Fina Shampoo is nourishing and very pleasant to use. It gives shine to the hair as promised but in a light and bouncy way. After use my hair had plenty of body which could be due to the dead sea salts. My hair is very thick and naturally wavy so for my hair I would prefer a more deeply nourishing shampoo that leaves my hair silky. However if you have hair that lacks body or volume this Barefoot Botanicals Restorative Shampoo would be perfect if you want shine as well as fullness.

Pros Very ergonomic bottle, very user friendly
- Delicate warm relaxing fragrance
- Rich and creamy application
- Gives bounce and body (as well as shine)
- Creates texture
- Calming and soothing on scalp
- Gentle on eyes (no stinging)

Cons Not nourishing enough for dry hair (with already plenty of body)
- Cleans to the squeak which can make combing hair out a little difficult and harder to detangle.
