Classic conditioner.

Container: A red 250ml plastic "tube" like bottle. The lid is a flip lid that opens on the bottom. It is flat so you could stand the conditioner on the top this is a bonus as it is easy to squeeze.

Appearance: The red of the container is bright and attractive. The writing on the front is in gold and white.

Information: The label is clear and informative. It has a clear list of ingredients, a clear and informative paragraph about the aim/secret of the conditioner. Overall for the container/packaging I would give it a 4/5. There is nothing that I can fault the package and presentation on. It is attractive and informative.

The Product: A glorious, sweet smelling white cream like cream. The conditioner smells delicious. A teaspoon worked in at the ends and then up towards the roots soaked right in. I found with this conditioner I was not disappointed. The shampoo cleaned my hair without leaving it feeling dry or "squeaky" and with the conditioner following I found that my hair was a little more controllable and has a little less fuzz. I can say that my hair was coloured a week before receiving this product. It is a copper colour which tends to fade, with this shampoo and conditioner I have not been disappointed my colour has lasted and my hair feels silky smooth.

I find that normally conditioners leave my hair looking and feeling oily, so I was a little hesitant about trialling this product but on reflection I am amazed and delighted at the results. Not once have I felt that my hair looked or felt even slightly oily, instead I have been left with sleek and shiny hair that is frizz free and vibrant in colour!

I am delighted with the results and will definitely purchase this in the future. It offers a salon like smooth finish to your hair and although it was for protecting my colour I have noticed that my hair is far more manageable! The fragrance is absolutely amazing.

For the fragrance I would give it a 5/5. For the texture/thickness of the conditioning cream I would give it a 5/5. For the results I would give it a 5/5. Using the shampoo with the conditioner I would give it a 5/5, using just the shampoo the results are not as fantastic but good as with the conditioner.

For the price, its a good product. Its as good as the salon recommended products at a fraction of the cost. I usually purchase a different brand that is cheaper so the price is a little more that I would normally pay. On saying that I would pay it again as the results are worth it.

Tips: Use this after the shampoo for the best results.

Colour Protect - same review I posted for shampoo

I received both the shampoo and conditioner and think its best to write the same for both products. I loved the smell of this and found that the scent did last on my hair, But, at this time of the year I normally don't need to wash my hair every day but found I did when using this. It made my hair very oily & lank the next day. One good thing was that my hair didn't tangle and was very easy to comb out. The packaging was nice, modern and bright, but, I wouldn't buy this product given the results that I had.

Loreal Paris Elvive Colour Protect conditioner

This conditioner is excellent value, it gives salon quality results on a supermarket budget. I loved the difference in packaging to the shampoo for easy to tell them apart (especially first thing in the morning!). The conditionor was easy to apply, smelt devine without that overpowering perfume smell. It left my hair feeling silky smooth, without flyaways and my colour still looking shiny, glossy and fresh even weeks after. I'm definitely sold on the Elvive Colour protect.

Tips: Leave the conditioner on for at least 3 minutes before rinsing

Elivive colour protect conditioner

This conditioner is excellent value, it gives salon quality results on a supermarket budget. The conditionor was easy to apply, smelt devine without that overpowering perfume smell. It left my hair feeling amazing, without flyaways and my colour still looking shiny, glossy and fresh even weeks after. I'm loving Elvive Colour protect.

Tips: definate use with the shampoo for best results and great as a treatment if you leave on longer with a hot wet towel wrapped around it

Colour Protect Conditioner

I was really looking forward trying this as I colour my hair quite bright colours. Typically being a self confessed Salon Snob, stepping out of my comfort zone to do this trial was good. The conditioner was nice smelling as per the shampoo, only used a very small amount as only using on my ends. Instant detangle from the knots in my hair was a wonderful feeling. Although it did not say how long to leave it on for I tried to leave it in for about 3-5mins for good nourishment

Tips: Only use it on the ends if your hair I accidentally put it in my fringe one day and it ended up very oily

Luscious shiny locks

This condition has a slightly thick feel to it, you don't need too much and leaving it in your hair for a minute or two depending on length and thickness of your hair makes a world of difference. I used it after the shampoo and the result was shiny, easy to handle (no knots) and healthy looking hair. I absolutely love the results and my colour looks as great now as when it was first done. I haven't noticed any loss of colour but have noticed that my hair isn't looking greasy or dirty, it is more shiny than I have seen it with 'supermarket' shampoo and conditioner. Would recommend to anyone who wants to see their colour last.

Tips: Less is more - 10 cent piece and try to leave it in for a minute or two.

A Mystry

I dyed my hair about 2 weeks before using this product. I used it in conjunction with the conditioner. The first time i used this, i found my hair dye was still comming out. Since then my hair has lightened and has gone to a dark brown with a hint of purple. I orginally dyed my hair purple. I am dissapointed with this product but I am not sure if it was the hair dye I used or the shampoo and conditioner, as I used a new hair dye.

I would give this another try using the brand I always use to colour my hair to see if it works, but pretty dissapointed overall with the colour of my hair :(

Soft and shiny

My conditioner review is going to be quite similar to my shampoo review since I've been using them together, The first thing I usually do with shampoo and conditioner is have a good sniff. It smells rich and like it would be nourishing. I think it smells a lot nicer than the shampoo. It comes in a 250ml bottle, so it's a decent size. I like the shape of the bottle but there is a lot of information on the packaging but it still looks nice sitting in the corner of the shower!

It's a thick creamy consistency and a little goes a long way but I'm still in the habit of using far too much as I've got more shampoo left than conditioner... I leave it on for about 3 minutes while I'm washing my face. I've also woken up a few times with a birds nest and used a bit in my hair before getting in the shower to get rid of knots and tangles which worked really well.

I have a red hair colour in at the moment by directions and I haven't noticed any major difference in fade times but it does leave my hair feeling so clean and shiny. I think it would be better suited to someone with a permanent colour in.

There was a day in the last three weeks (bad) that I didn't straighten my hair and left it to dry naturally and it did go very fluffy.

Usually my head is very oily so I wash my hair daily and for the first time ever I have been able to wash it every second day. That is why I will be buying it again!

Tips: Use with the colour protect shampoo

Colour Protect Conditioner

I was offered to trial the L'Oreal Paris Elvive Colour Protection Conditioner. It came in a 250ml bottle, and smelt great. At the end of the 2 week trial I still had heaps left so it does last a long time which is always great.

Unfortunately this Conditioner did not work well with my hair. I have oily roots and dry ends which causes a problem if Conditioner's have ingredients that add moisture, and due to the shampoo and conditioner putting a barrier on the hair it made my hair look dirty the next day.

On the plus side The Conditioner did help stop the colour fading. As I put temporary colours in my fringe I wasn't sure it would work on them but I was suprised when the temp colours lasted longer.

Silky Smooth

Oh my my my my. I am a constant user of supermarket brand shampoo and conditioners. When this fell into my hands, I didn't expect wonders but boy was I wrong. This conditioner has made my hair incredibly smooth! It is so silky. This is what I imagine a Unicorn's mane to feel like! It made my hair shine too like a diamond! The colour of my hair came alive in a pretty chocolate brown colour instead of the dull brown it has faded to. This has claimed a well deserved spot in my shower!

Tips: Don't forget to use the L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Colour Protect Shampoo before hand for the ultimate shine experience.
