Desert Essence Organics Red Grape Conditioner

Just got back from a week-long vacation on Martha's Vineyard. While there, I had the opportunity to sample a product that recalls a different kind of vineyard -- Desert Essence Organics Italian Red Grape Conditioner. And absolutely loved it.

The sweet-smelling conditioner is suitable for both color and non-color treated hair. It contains the antioxidants resveratrol and red wine extract, which act as antioxidant UV filters to protect the hair from environmental stresses like sun and saltwater. Other key ingredients include grape seed oil, Vitamin E and Vitamin B5.

But the best thing about it is the smell, which folks I was with described as "real grape", "an afternoon in Tuscany in the height of autumn", and "like grape Hubba Bubba, only better because it's organic and makes your hair look good."

Like all Desert Essence Organics products, Italian Red Grape Conditioner uses organic ingredients wherever possible, is 100% vegan, and is wheat and gluten free. It's paraben-, silicon- and petroleum-product-free, and is not tested on animals.

And it makes your hair smell amazing. Yum.
