Yeah, try saying that quickly five times. You'll sound like a goof.
I feel floaty and disassociated, so I guess I'll write that way, too. For some reason, a bottle of @mosphere ginger shampoo is lurking beside my right elbow. I bought the shampoo because I like things that smell like spices--not because of the reasons listed on the blurb on the bottle:
What a load of guano! The only demographic this shampoo seems to miss are the extreme sports fanatics and the aged. I'm sure if the copy folks had thought about it, there would have been at least one "extreme" in the write-up, and at least one reference to the rejuvenation of tired (or missing) hair cells. As it stands, the new agey stuff and the e-crowd people appear to be the target audience.
I went looking online for references to @mosphere shampoo, and all I could really find was a person who washes her hair every two weeks, whether she needs it or not. I can't help but think that people who do this would reek of head. I smell like grotty scalp if I don't wash my hair for just three days. Ugh.
From the writeup on the shampoo bottle, I learned that using @mosphere will give me a bit of a fever while making my hair sweat. Great. The odour (which actually has more in common with Thrills gum (you know--the one that tastes just like soap)) doesn't stimulate me. It just makes me think of how Thrills sticks to my molars with the tenacity of a rabid pit bull terrier attached to a tire.
And how exactly is this shampoo holistic? Gah! I hate that word! It's as offputting for me as scraping my teeth on a razor blade. Once upon a time, "holistic" used to be perfectly valid, but now it's become devoid of meaning. Everything is holistic, nowadays--particularly the stuff in a health food shop. If it's not holistic, it's "empowering" (another razor-biting word).
I find it particularly telling that nowhere on the bottle does it say this shampoo will actually clean your hair. When I used it, it just pulled my hair dye out, oozing in purply suds down the drain. It's also one of the only shampoos I've had to do the lather, rinse, repeat thing with. One time through just doesn't seem to cut it.

Ginger Oil is known to help warm and strengthen the body. According to Chinese medicine, ginger regulates moisture and raises body temperature. Massage @mosphereTM ginger hair care into your hair and feel its warmth as well as experience its stimulating aroma. Natural virgin olive oil has been added to help replenish lost moisture to dry or damaged hair. Part of a complete line of holistic new age bath and body care products inspired by nature.
