I was planning to do a review soon. The Yes to Carrots line can also be found at Target. I love the C is for Conditioner. It's so creamy, and I was sold when I first saw the list of ingredients. It helps me to detangle easily, and a little goes a long way for my cowashes.

As you can see I use the C Conditioner, but it has Dimethicone so I wanted to try the other conditioners. But wanted to know if they worked as good. They are a good price but I am a PJ and am sampling a lot of products at this time and there is not that much info on the other cucumbers or tomatoes. Thanks I love the Carrots also.

Sorry, no experience with the others yet. I may try them when I run out. I can tell you about the Cucumber eye gel though.

I really like the Carrots Shampoo, I only use it about once a week cuz it does have a sulphate (one of the less harsher ones) but the other ingredients seem to counteract it well. I like to use this when I'm using a very moisturizing Styler like KCCC

I wouldn't use this because of the sulfates. But thanks for the review if I ever start back using them.

IMO I find the Yes to Cucumbers to be more moisturizing then the Yes to Carrots. I would like to try the leave in sometime.

I also saw this line when I was at Target, it still looks very interesting. I went to the website, and it looks like they are trying to phase out the sulfates by having them be coconut-derived and I saw no cones in most of the Tomato and Cucumber lines. Maybe the Carrot one will be phased out too.

I use the YTCucumbers Leave in and I really like it. At the time I was looking for a glycerin free leave in and that was about the only drugstore one I could find .

I liked the Yes to Cucumbers leave in conditioner. It was thick and creamy. But I could not handle that smell. I usually tolerate most fragrances if I like the way the product works, but it smelled way to chemical-ish to me. I had to return to Walgreens.

I love Yes to Carrots. I haven't tried cucumber. I have used tomato facial moisturizer, but my face was horribly breaking out at the time and everything was irritating it.

How is the fragrance for the C conditioner?
My Target only has the Yes to Carrots C Conditioner, and I think, the shampoo. I also saw the mud mask. Oddly enough, the mud mask in the box had different ingredients than the mud mask without a box.

facial moisturizer
I received a sample of the yes to carrots facial moisturizer, and hated it. It has a very strong smell - very similar to that pink oil of olay lotion that I used when I was a teenager. ick. haven't tried the hair products.

I like it. I had never bought an eye gel/cream before, so I wasn't sure if the price was good or not, but it seems like it will last a long time. My eyes are usually swollen when I wake up from allergies and whatnot. The gel is very soothing.

I love the Cucumber Conditioner. This is much better for my hair than the Carrots. I got great clumping and everything, my curls really  . I have not tried the tomatoes but I will although I do not need volume you never know. Thanks for everyone's great reviews.

HOORAY!!!
I LOOOOOOVE the Yes to carrots shampoo (not a fan of the SLS) and will forever use the conditioner! I couldn't believe how the tangles just fell out of my hair. Especially since I hadn't washed in a week.
I have the mask and will report back once I've tried it.
I am a little disappointed that they don't have a leave in conditioner in the carrots line... I sure hope more products are to come.
Has anyone used the carrots line and the cucumber leave-in after with success?...

I've used the Yes to Carrots conditioner and really like it. It works better for me when I apply it in the shower since the heat helps it to penetrate better. When I do this, it get almost immediate slip, and tangles come right out. I plan on getting the YTC leave in soon, and maybe the YTT conditioner.
FYI, if you go to the site for the brand, there's a BOGOF coupon for up to $16 bucks or so.

Do you have a link to the coupon? I went to the site and I can't find the coupon anywhere.
