Spa Find Heavenly Hydration Conditioning Scalp Mud

It's been a while since I've run a This week I'm loving... post as I tend to want to include slightly quirkier products which have caught my attention. This definitely falls under the "unusual" product category. Although I've tried mud and clay based hair masks before (& been surprisingly impressed), they are few and far between.
I'd never heard of Spa Find until the PR's email came through. It turns out that Spa Find is a professional and home care brand based around mineral therapy, with their hero range being based around natural Dead Sea Mud which contains 21 minerals beneficial to skin. Spa Find Heavenly Hydration Conditioning Scalp Mud incorporates Dead Sea minerals along with coconut, grapefruit and peach extracts to help condition hair and scalp.

Spa Find Heavenly Hydration Conditioning Scalp Mud has a suitably "spa" feel to it. I definitely feel that's there's something indulgent about slathering on a rich mud.
The packaging is functional, a pump bottle so there's no mess or wastage when you dispense and certainly no product getting caught under nails as generally happens when I attempt to scoop things out of a tub. The bottle is absolutely huge and will last and last. In fact, my only gripe with Spa Find Heavenly Hydration Conditioning Scalp Mud is that the product information and directions are detailed on a tiny card attached to the bottle neck by elastic, which you have to remove before taking the bottle into the shower and is clearly going to get lost. Personally, I like to have a reminder of directions, particularly if I'm not using a product regularly. Having said that, you can use Spa Find Heavenly Hydration Conditioning Scalp Mud as part of your daily regime although I feel that this would be too much for my fine hair.
For some reason, I guess because I associate muds as being exotic, I expected this to have a warm scent but it's surprisingly fresh and very pleasant nonetheless. It's a smooth mud so there's no grit which many might associate with this type of formula and is easy to apply. I was a little unsure of how much to use so I erred on the side of caution and left on for the suggested few minutes. Given the formula, I found it easy to rinse out and was pleased not to see lots of messy residue left in my shower.
My hair was left feeling unbelievably soft and very managable. I'm impressed!

At £18 for a generous 500ml, I feel that this represents fantastic value for money. The SpaFind website, http://www.spafindskincare.com/, is definitely worth a look, I found myself browsing for quite some time!
