October Beauty Awards

Hi there! Welcome to the October Beauty Awards, a.k.a. Mrs Strawberry Blonde’s monthly favourites. 🙂 I’ve reviewed quite a few awesome products, so let me tell you which products I loved the most this month.

3rd place – Palmolive Aroma Moments Feel Good & So Sweet

These 2 Palmolive shower products are simply amazing. 11 stars!

Runner-Up –  SpaScriptions Anti-Aging Spa Treatment Mask With Grapefruit & Collagen

This mask delivers on its anti-aging promise. 11 stars!

WINNER – Alberto Balsam Blends Volume Boost Shampoo & Conditioner With Jericho Rose & Pink Grapefruit

What? These hair care products are better than an anti-aging skin care product that gives instant results? Yes! These Alberto Balsam hair products are 100% awesome! 11 stars!

Now onto the honourable mentions! I really like Superdrug’s Chocolate Orange Self-Heating Mask, and the Super Facialist Clay Mask is just as great. And the first Panda Mask I’ve ever tried turned out to be a hit too!

Have you tried any of these products? Or would you like to try them? Which products did you like best this month? Feel free to comment. And thanks for reading! 🙂

100% Awesome – Alberto Balsam Volume Boost Shampoo & Conditioner

Hi there! Today’s post is about Alberto Balsam’s Volume Boost Shampoo & Conditioner with Jericho Rose & Pink Grapefruit. I bought these 2 products quite some time ago when they were on special (£1 each), and I’ve finally managed to try them.

These products are aimed at people with fine or flat hair, and they promise fullness and a healthy look. And guess what, these 2 products are simply awesome! Read on, I’ll tell you more! 🙂

The shampoo feels amazing on my head. It feels clarifying, but it’s  also sensationally soft! The formula is pretty much perfect! The conditioner is fantastic too. It feels very conditioning, and it detangles my hair with ease. It actually feels like a “soft & smooth” conditioner. Brilliant!

I’m also happy that these 2 products make my hair appear fuller. And yes, at the same time my hair feels soft and smooth. Alberto Balsam delivers on its promise again! Oh, one more thing – these two products smell divine. The fragrance is perfectly natural, and it’s the perfect mix of rose and grapefruit. Gorgeous!

To sum it up… Alberto Balsam’s Volume Boost Shampoo & Conditioner with Jericho Rose & Pink Grapefruit mop the floor with comparable (yet pricier) offerings from brands like L’Oréal and Pantene. I paid £1 (special offer) each for the 300ml shampoo and 300ml conditioner. Alberto Balsam Blends products are usually £2 each which is still fantastic value. 🙂
