I have this and Fresh's Meadowfoam conditioner (which replaced Illipe), and I like this one much more, though they are pretty similar. It smells great and nourishes hair without weighing it down. If they brought it back I'd buy it in heartbeat.

This is a so-so conditioner. Judging by the price, you wouldn't think so though. It was all right, but it never did any real good for my hair the 3 weeks I was using it, and the price, $24 for about 5 oz., is ridiculous- considering you can get much better conditioners for the fraction of the cost.

I bought this on a whim at Sephora when I noticed that my former conditioner stopped working after 3-4 months or so.

I really like this. It's very creamy and goes on very smoothly and soaks into my very dry hair very well. The scent is nice.

I took one lipstick off due to the price, and b/c I am not sure that this will work long-term. But I will update.

I received a 0.5 oz. sample of this conditioner and I am very impressed. I'm in constant search of hg products for my dry, color-treated, highlighted hair and this (in only 2 applications) made a noticable difference. I took off one lippie because it didn't tame my frizz, but it also only claims to discourage frizz, and it did do that. It's also rather expensive. But it did make my hair shiny and soft, and has just a gentle, soft fragrance that didn't irritate my sensitive scalp. As we all know, some products work great for awhile, then stop working; we go back to it in 4 or 6 months and it's great again. We have to be changing and fine-tuning our hair products regularly. Illipe Butter conditioner is not inexpensive, but I'll buy a tube to put in my arsenal.

When I first read last year about Fresh starting a hair care line, I was skeptical. While I do like the bath and body line as well as the fragrances, I felt the company was spreading itself far too thin to have a clear focus on creating haircare. On a whim, I picked up Illipe Butter Conditioner(Along with Soy Shampoo). Since my hair is dry and dehydrated with a bit of damage, I chose this conditioner because it is supposed to deep condition with ingredients like shea butter. It costs $24 for a 150ml tube, which is expensive although a good price for high-end haircare.




Illipe Butter Conditioner is very thick and feels like butter at room tempurature. It's not as heavy or greasy as butter would be although it does a fantastic job of moisturizing and conditioning my hair. I really like this product and credit this with getting rid of some of the frizziness in my hair. It truly smooths the hair and makes it feel much softer. I can achieve this using the smallest amount of product. The scent is nothing to write home about. It's a standard citurs scent although it does help to boost the scent of Soy Shampoo, which makes that scent last much longer.




This is a very nice deep conditioner. However, I think it does work best when used with Fresh shampoos. Because it is heavy I wouldn't recommend this for anyone who doesn't have very dry hair. It can be a bit heavy and might make some hair types greasy.

Very moisturizing conditioner. All fresh products smell this same. Rosy scent. It goes on like Butter and when you rinse it leaves my hair very soft and smooth. Not very large bottle for the price so you may want to reserve for special occasions. I will buy again.

This is OK as far as moisturizing conditioners go. It does the job, but not well enough to justify the pricetag. Nice scent. I much prefer the Frederic Fekkai Shea Butter conditioner to realy moisturize my hair.
