CHRISTOPHE ROBIN VOLUMISING PASTE {REVIEW}

No I haven't written a review on Christopher Robin, read again it's Christophe Robin and I'm sure like "moi" you're wondering who the heck he is.

French man Christophe Robin, has been an A-list colorist for more than 20 years, created in 1999 his hair care line selecting powerful natural ingredients for recognized long term results. Christophe Robin, the self named haircare range has been developed through years of experience and passion and has been specially formulated to care and protect colour treated hair.

I was a little sceptical to say the least about this rather obscure (obscure to me)

 unusually named hair cleansing product.

Christophe Robin Volumising Paste with Pure Rassoul Clay

and Rose Extracts 

is a deep cleansing treatment for fine hair lacking in density, which

is exactly how I would currently describe my hair.

It also has a rather unusual appearance, as it looks like more

an exfoliator or body scrub.

 This unique clay-to-foam shampoo is formulated to help create beautiful volume 

while absorbing impurities and oil from the scalp and

 give instant volume at the roots and density down the lengths.

Consisting of 85% natural origin ingredients this formula is a unique blend 

of pure Rassoul Clay, with densifying and re-mineralizing benefits, 

protective rose extracts and Limnanthes extract to help preserve and 

enhance the hair color.

This surprising paste-like texture transformed instantly into a light foam,

and its transformation was pure magic, as I was expecting to seriously work 

this product into my hair and scalp to have any foaming, cleansing effect.

Despite not looking too great in the pot the product has a slight rose fragrance

and more importantly for me, was easy to rinse.

I didn't do my normal double shampoo, as my hair and scalp felt cleaner than its

ever felt before just after one application.

It was easy to rinse despite using too much and having mountains of

from on my head and it certainly didn't add to my dreaded tangle situation

due to my hair being both long,fine and highlighted.

How To Use:

On wet hair: use a tablespoon worth of product (more or less, depending on the length

 of your hair) rub into your palms, and apply all over your hair. 

(As I found out on my first use, use much less than recommended)

With a delicate touch, make circular motions until you feel the paste turn to foam, 

and make sure you lift the roots. Add a little water, emulsify, and rinse well. 

For an intensified effect: let it sit for 2 minutes before you rinse.

This product surprised me on so many different levels, its name, its appearance, 

the way the consistency completely transformed once applied to the hair and

the volumising results it gave down to the delicate fragrance it left

in my hair.

I was utterly blown away with this product and if you read my product reviews

regularly, you will know that it takes an outstanding product to make me use the

 term "blown away".

After using twice in the past week my hair felt soft, thicker and incredibly clean. 
I was also able to go longer between washes, which is a Win Win situation.

 I was so impressed that it's on my overseas shopping list. 

Please let me know in the comments below if you have used this product before

or the Volumising Shampoo, as I tempted to buy both.
