 Personal Experience:  Tara Smith is a celebrity hair stylist to the stars; I wanted to find a new sulfate free shampoo and was over the moon when Cult beauty was having a pop up store in Selfridges. Tested for 2 months, the shampoo lathers really easy leaving the scalp with a tingling feeling, it smells of Colgate toothpaste for some reason. I still have half the bottle remaining it claims to nourish the hair and scalp. It didn’t nourish my hair but it sure stimulated my hair growth. The conditioner I hardly used any of the product, it still has 70% of the bottle. I did find that my hair tangled after shampooing and I’ve lost a lot of hair in the sink because it’s so thick. The conditioner untangles really well with just a walnut size amount. It also smelt like Colgate toothpaste. After blow drying my hair looked moderately shiny and it did not make my hair itchy or greasy quickly. Both products have a creamy consistency and the 250ml last for ages. 

Price: 5/5
Quality: 4/5
Packaging: 4/5

Overall: 4/5

Pros: lathers really well
promoted hair growth
does not make scalp itchy

Cons: did not nourish hair

Would I re-purchase again? Maybe, only because it does not make my scalp itch, it does not nourish hair as it claims.
