Review of Alberto V05 Moisture Milks Blueberries and Cream Shampoo

I usually don't buy cheap shampoos and conditioners, and my tub and closet is filled with all sorts of expensive high end shampoos and conditioners. However when I came across a scent I have never ever used before I had to have it. It was Blueberries and Cream Moisture Milks by Alberto V05.
This is a company I have always been neutral with, I never have hated their products, nor have I ever loved them. V05 has always been sort of eh for me. When I popped the top on Blueberries and Cream though I was in love with an Alberto V05 product. The scent reminded me of warm heated blueberry muffins fresh from the overn, and a hint of cream added in for moisture. It was yummy. I wanted to eat it.
I had a feeling though that the whole 'Moisture Milk' was just another name gimmick. I have never in my life used a shampoo that had not made my hair feel dry after rinsing out, and I was sure VO5 Moisture Milks would prove to be the same; nice smelling, no moisture. No matter though, this is why I use deep conditioners afterward.
The bottle only came to $1.50 at my local Walmart, but I liked the scent, and the cheap price did not steer me away. The shampoo inside was blue, and looked as if it had white swirls creamy shiny shampoo mixed in. Obviously it was supposed to resemble the 'milk'. Hehe. Either way, it was pretty, cheap, and smelled yummy.
At home I first rinsed my hair with warm water, and then applied about a handful of shampoo into my palm. I scrubbed it around into my scalp, and a nice thick creamy lather formed on top. The scent was also present, but sort of lost it's yum factor. I could still smell it don't get me wrong, but the scent had definitely toned it down a few notches once it was lathery.
The lather itself did feel in fact very moisturizing. But lots of shampoos feel this way; that is, until you wash it out.
After washing the shampoo out, my hair was left feeling parched, but not overly parched like some shampoos leave it feeling. The result though, was far from being moisturized. I rinsed with some conditioner, and got out of the shower.
The blueberry scent was stuck in my hair, and kicked the scent of the conditioner to the side. Cool. Loved it! The blueberry scent stood with me for the entire day, and as a final result, my hair looked and felt much nicer than it usually does. It just goes to show, you don't have to spend a lot of money on nice shampoos. You can also buy the cheap ones with results just as excellent as high end products, and sometimes the results are even better.
After using Blueberries and Cream Moisture Milks, I have been known to buy other scents from the collection of Moisture Milks as well. Aside from Blueberries and Cream, you can also wash your hair with Cream Fresh Peaches (I think Peaches and Cream would have been a better name for it though), Strawberries and Cream, and Honeydew Smoothie, which again, should be called Honeydew and Cream.
I have used all of them, and all of them have similar results with lovely scents left behind in your hair, that you can smell all day long. My favorite though, Blueberries and Cream. Mmmm!

Where to find them: You can pick up this scent at any local super store. If you buy them in rug stores they tend to be over priced. I recommend Target or Walmart for the best price on this shampoo. While you are there be sure to check out the sister conditioner as well.
