Active Naturals, under the brand Johnsons and Johnsons are said to select their ingredients from nature and uniquely formulated by AVEENO® through the power of science to deliver visible benefits for skin and hair.

This pair of haircare products were something I picked up on a whim on drugstore.com when there was a sale. The name is misleading as most would have thought its natural but its less natural than expected. Thank goodness, they weren't that expensive, considering the size of it.

The bottles of the shampoo and conditioner look almost similar except for the wordings, hence there is a constant reminder to check the names before using it. Its tall and slender with a wide flip top that I like because it made opening them so much hassle-free.
Both products has the same light scent but I would prefer natural scents or those from essential oils, if given a choice.

The shampoo is milky white in colour and has a thick and creamy texture which foams up pretty easily but you need to spread it before usage, to avoid a glob on just 1 spot of the hair.
The conditioner is also milky white in colour, but more concentrated in texture and has a slight emollient feel.

Frankly speaking, I did not quite like both products because it just did not give me the much needed shine as touted in the products and it left my hair in tangled mess. However, it did leave my hair feeling softer. It removes the oil and dirt as easily as other brands of hair products I owned, so I do not actually find it spectacular as what it claimed to do. I also did not feel that my hair is better nourished even after using more than 50% of both products, almost on a daily basis.

The shampoo scored 4 from 97 users on Makeupalley , with 76% of them willing to buy it again. The conditioner scored 3.8 from 66 users with 63% of them willing to buy it again.
