The first shampoo bar that I review from Sweet Creek Herbals is the Lavender in Roses Vegan Herbal Shampoo. This sample size is small, less than 20 grams. Its a sliver shaped sample, much like the size of samples from Beauty and the Bees.
The ingredients in this soap are:
coconut oil, castor oil, organic virgin olive oil, sodium hydroxide in distilled water, jojoba, lavender tea, aloe butter, oils of geranium rose and lavender
The smell - the soaps smells of roses. Not a very strong smell but moderate and pleasant, if you like the smell of roses. This soap is advertised as suitable for all hair types. And it is vegan, for anyone who is particular about using only vegan types of soaps.
This soap lathers quick and very well. It does not have that rich lather than Chagrin Valley's soaps produce but a quick, very usable lather. And the sample lasts quite well. For my long hair, I could use it for 3-4 washes every time. And these soaps wash off easier than Chagrin Valley soaps do. This soap is fairly moisturizing, my hair does not look very dry after using this soap and is neat that way.
Onto other things, I think in general Sweet Creek Herbs shampoo bars are quite mild. If I were oil massage my hair before using a shampoo bar, I can be certain that a Chagrin Valley bar would wash off all the oil I used on my hair where as SCH (Sweet Creek Herbs) and BatB(Beauty and the Bees) shampoo bars would clean my hair but not get rid of all the oil. I tried this multiple times, so I can declare this now. This is just the different formulations by different vendors I would say. So I make it a point to use shampoo bars according to how I have oil-treated or not oil-treated my hair.
Overall, this is an okayish soap I would say. I was not blown away by this exactly, neither did it upset me terribly. SCH products seem to be pretty decent and I may buy this soap sometime later. It does not figure on the top of my list as yet though.
