Since I like the gel and two of the twisting butters,
Camille Rose was a strong contender, so I bought a nice chunk of products in a Black Friday haul. Here is a review of the products that I’ve
tried thus far from my haul, in order of preference. Overall, Camille Rose knocks it out of the park on cleansers and butters, and I feel in love with the growth serum. However, none of their leave-ins worked for me.
LOVE IT:
- Cocoa Nibs & Honey Ultimate Growth Serum ($16 / 8 oz.) – This is now one of my favorite Camille Rose products. It actually makes me break my dislike of oil mixes. It is light enough that it works well on my low porosity hair, while still being able to seal moisture in. As an added bonus, it has hair growing products.
- Caramel Cowash ($14 / 8 oz.) – It is a close call between this product and the Cocoa Nibs for which one I love the best. Ultimately, I chose the serum because the bottle will last longer. This co-wash is amazing, but it will go fast because I have a lot of hair. In addition to the Camille Rose heavenly scent, it has amazing slip and makes my hair feel like butter, while still being able to clean my hair. It is also gentle enough to cleanse and condition my 18-month old daughter’s hair, despite her sensitive scalp.
- Coconut Water Penetrating Hair Treatment ($20 / 8 oz.) – I was so surprised by how well this worked on my hair as a deep conditioner. Every time I used it, it soften up my hair and left it feeling like butter when I washed it out. My only pause is that I don’t see any protein in it, and I know my hair needs protein over time.
- Sweet Ginger Cleansing Rinse ($11 / 12 oz.) - This is one of the few Camille Rose products that I've tried that does not smell like a sweet dessert. It cleanses my hair without stripping it, and it has incredible slip. Plus, a little goes a long way and it is cheaper per ounce than the other Camille Rose cleansers. For people who think a cleanser should foam, this does that too.
LIKE IT
- Nourishing Cream Cleanser ($11 / 8 oz.) – This is a holiday limited edition product. It reminds me of a watery version of the Carmel Cowash. It smells heavenly, has amazing slip and it cleanses my hair without stripping it, but I have other cleansers that I can get year-round that I like just as much.
- Coconut Water "Style Setter" ($15 / 8 oz.) – I was torn on this product as a styler. It is very similar to the Camille Rose Almond Jai Twist Butter in the way it works on my hair. It moisturizes, but there was little definition and sheen. However, on one sleep deprived night, I accidentally attempted to use this product as an overnight deep conditioner. It left my hair sooo soft when I washed it out. I put it in the like it, as opposed to love it, because it isn’t performing the function it is supposed to.
LEAVE IT
- Coconut Water Leave-In Treatment ($14 / 8 oz.) – This left a strange coating on my hair, though it did leave it moisturized. I ultimately donated it to my daughter’s newly formed product stash.
- Nourishing Cream Leave In ($13 / 8 oz.) - This is a holiday limited edition product, and I have no desire to ever buy it again. I tried it both right after a shower and on wet hair, and it left my bone dry.
- Ajani Growth and Shine Balm ($12 / 4 oz.) – I have already reviewed this here.
I’ve also reviewed a few other
Camille Rose products on my page,
so feel free to check those out too. I also
hope to do a battle of the Camille Rose butters soon.
