Well, yes you know the ingredients present in them ,do you want to try the duo ? Let's see my take on them :

First impressions ... The tubes definitely looked like they belonged in a spa-with their glossy finish,red cap.

Open sesame,er..open..opening cap..

I squeeze out an amount appropriate for my hair length(just below my shoulder) ,then shampoo and rinse ,and then after applying the conditioner from the middle of my hair to the ends ,I wait for 3-5 times and then rinse it out .

My hair type : wavy, but not over-processed.Frizzy now.

(my hair is very moody) 

What I saw....was :

• no change in my hair-fall
• There's an amazing smell coming out of my hair,it's a fresh and fruity smell.
• The consistency of the product is creamy and spreads well .
• However,I don't see that much of smoothness in my hair in the first try,at least.

Verdict : 

Use it if :

• you have colored ,damaged(but not over processed hair)
• you want a shampoo and conditioner that has "algae and keratin" complex which is great for your hair and you are broke.

Don't use it if :

•  you have bleached,over-processed hair.
• want a glossy,shiny mane.
• have money and want the best in the market

Overall,I think this duo of shampoo and conditioner is quite good-effective and albeit,cheap.I do recommend that you try it.
