Yves Rocher!


I used to wash my hair with Yves Rocher's chamomile shampoo every night all through elementary school! It gave me the prettiest golden highlights in my dark brown hair and made it oh-so-soft. Imagine my delight when, on a whim, I searched to see if they were on the web, and they are! (http://www.yvesrocherusa.com/control/main/)


It turns out my beloved chamomile shampoo has been re-branded into a golden highlight enhancing specialty shampoo (on sale now for $7.60!), which is more than fine by me, as long as I can have it! Browsing the site was like taking a stroll down memory lane, remembering how I used to terrorize my mom while she opened the boxes she ordered from Yves Rocher, and begging her to let me have the mini perfume samples.

If there were ever a brand that I fully and wholeheartedly trust it would be this one! Every bottle reminds me of the sweet innocence of childhood and of being completely taken care of. Just seeing the name written out on the website was a pull on my heartstrings. I know some people might find my deep psychological attachment to the brand hard to understand, but everyone has something from their childhood that reminds them of being loved and taken care of. Maybe it's seeing that old school coppertone that your mom slathered on you painstakingly day after summer day even though you cried and complained the whole time, or maybe it's the brand of oatmeal your dad made you before school. Whatever it is, don't worry, I get it!

Not only do I have a deep and long-standing emotional relationship with Yves Rocher, I also love their high environmental standards ( they earned the highest certification for their North American office), and the fact that they don't use any animal products in any of their products. This is truly botanical beauty at it's finest! Can't you tell that I just love love love this brand? It's not too often that you get a little piece of your childhood back, so for me this is really special, but the products are truly great and amazingly priced. Trust me, I'm a lifetime user!

Yeah there is so much they literally offer everything. Their shampoo is amazing, really gentle but they leave your hair so soft, and thankfully they aren't too much of a price commitment.

You're welcome!
