Luxurious and purely gorgeous, Fekkai Au Naturel brings natural movement and body to the hair with a plant-based collection that is free of sulfates, parabens, dyes and synthetic fragrances. The best part? These products actually work as well as their chemical counterparts.

A few of my favorite features:

- The scent is nothing like many of the natural haircare lines I've tried. Au Naturel products are composed of a refreshing blend of citrus, lavender and vanilla notes.

- Orange fruit extract, Vitamin C and B Complex, Bioflavonoids, Potassium, Zinc, Phosphorous and natural sugars nourish the hair and scalp.

- All three products are packaged in bottles and tubes made of 40% recycled materials.

- My hair feels light, bouncy and full of shine after every use. (Including the first!)
