Yes To Carrots

By CSauve · September 21, 2008 · 4 Comments · 29 Views


I had a chance to try out some hair products and an eye cream from a line called "Yes to Carrots". The Pampering Carrot Juice Shampoo cleanses, nourishes and moisturizes the hair and scalp with more than 26 minerals and trace elements. The main ingredients are organic carrots (of course), sweet potato and pumpkin. You then follow up with the Pampering Hair Mud Conditioner, which combines Dead Sea mud, organic carrots, pumpkin, sweet potato, melon and orange. I found that the conditioner worked so well that I don't even need to use it every time I wash my hair.

The Hair and Scalp Moisturizing Mask is a great product for damaged or very dry hair. The instructions say to use 1-2 times a week but I've just because it's so intensely hydrating, I've been using it once every 2 weeks. It contains all the main ingredients found in the daily conditioner as well as Beta-Carotene, Alpha-Carotene, Vitamin E and other good-for-your-hair enzymes.

And because carrots are good fro your eyes, the line has an Eye Contour Cream that contains organic carrot and cucumber juice and 26 Dead Sea Minerals. The cream has anti-inflammatory properties and nourishes the delicate eye area skin.

I had no idea how much these products cost but assumed because of how well they worked, and the cute packaging, that they were going to be on the pricey side. So I was surprised when I found out the line is available at Walgreens, Target and Ulta. The shampoo and conditioner are only $8 a piece, the hair mask $13 and the eye cream $15. This past week Yes To Cucumbers and Yes To Tomatoes came out. You can check out more products at their website.

I have been using Yes to Carrots ever since it hit the shelves of my nearest Duane Reade - I love it! The shampoo has sulphates it in, so I passed that. I did use the conditioner, hair mask, mud mask for the face and their hand and nail spa - each one is amazing. Not remotely expensive. And no chemicals that I see on the label. So I ended up buying the face cream and the hand and elbow cream - it has the most subtle and amazing smell , and it will make ur skin feel like butter - just not oily like butter - if you know what I mean. I bought the Hydrating Cream - from the Yes to Cucumbers line recently - it runs toward the more heavy moisturizing side - but tis great as an overnight cream. I made a mistake with the Tomatoes line - Shampoo and Conditioner both seem to have started me on a hair fall journey - that could also be just in my case though.The Carrots line is genius though.You should also try 'Befine' - they had some kind of an offer recently - where you could get $16 worth of stuff free with a $16 purchase. That line is also really really good. It just doesn't have any smell. None whatsoever. But it certainly seems to do what it claims, which is more than what can be said for the high priced crap in the market. And oh, its natural + organic for the mos part. Jackpot!

Ooh I like. Carrots is full of Vitamin A which is great for skin and hair. Sounds like a great product which I would like to check out. Thanks for the post.
