Mother&Baby writer, mum of three, Hannah James said: "The smell is the first thing I noticed about this product. It smells just like a Caribbean island.

I am absolutely obsessed, the shampoo and conditioner are so nourishing on my hair which majority of the time is quite dry. I have also found they help maintain the frizz and texture of my curls.
