L'Oreal Paris Casting Creme Gloss Review

I really enjoyed using this product. Though the gloves were small, the instructions were very easy to follow (and come in so many languages!) and the process was very simple. I'd never coloured my hair myself before so I was a little nervous about it but was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was. It came with loads of conditioner as well which was fab. I have brown hair and simply dyed it another brown but much nicer. Most people didn't even notice I'd dyed it to be honest but I thought the colour was great, clearly very natural looking and still felt healthy and smooth. I specifically asked a couple of friends what they thought and both noted my hair was shinier and healthy looking which is always fab to hear. I dyed it 19/12 so a little under 3 weeks ago and I can tell the colour has faded a bit. I understand that its summer but I would say it definitely wouldn’t last 28 washes, for me anyway. I would be happy to use this product again though, and would recommend it to others for sure! I’m pleased I had the chance to trial it!

I really enjoyed using this L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss. It made my hair a lovely brunette shade. Originally I had brunette to blonde ombre hair but decided to go back to a full brunette colour and this dye made my hair shiny, soft and a nice shade after using it. The instructions that came in the box were very useful and even though I'm not a beginner when it comes to dying hair at home, I'm sure a beginner would find it easy to do with this particular hair dye box.

I really love Casting Creme Gloss. I don't know of any other brand that still has a Semi-Permanent so thanks for that L'oreal!

Mixing and application is really simple and the fact that its ammonia free means you don't have that nasty strong smell. I have fairly long but fine hair and one pack is enough for me to get full coverage. I do have some greys and it covers them up nicely. My hair is always lovely and shiny after using this. I have used various colors in this range, mostly dark browns, reds and purples. For this review i used the Plum shade which i loved. I find that the reds and purples fade out quite quickly for me, i would say you get a couple of weeks before it is noticeable (no doubt dependent on how often you wash you hair) but for that reason this is a great choice for if you want to try out a new colour but not commit to the permanent version.

The casting Creme Gloss has great packaging by giving you a great indication of what colour you are getting. The instructions were easy to follow and the application of product was good as it did not drip everywhere. I left the product on for correct time and rinsed out and it was nice not to have ammonia fumes! After drying my hair the colour was rich and my hair was so soft! I have now washed my hair about 3 times and the colour still looks fab. The product has not dried out my hair like some others I have tried and my hair still feels silky soft.

When the chance came up to review the L'Oréal casting creme gloss hair dye, I was super excited to give it a go. Being a busy mum, I never really put myself first or give myself some pampering, so it had been a couple of years since I last dyed my hair. I was well overdue for a change!

The hardest part about reviewing this product was choosing what colour to go with, there is a huge range to choose from! Should I go lighter? Or darker?.... In the end I chose to go darker and went with Iced Chocolate (sounds yummy doesn't it?)

Applying the L'Oréal casting creme gloss hair dye was fairly straight forward, just following the instructions and go. Once applied to the hair, wait for the dye to take and then wash out. Easy peasy!

I loved the results!!!!

Lovely rich dark brown with a reddy tinge, looked amazing. I was impressed!!

I've had my hair coloured for 3 weeks now and as I was my hair everyday the colour has faded. This particular dye only being semi permanent lasts for 28 washes. But I have loved the change and the colour and it's a great way of doing something different and then if you don't like it, it's going to come out within a month anyway!

But for me, I'm going to be looking for a permanent colour. I hope they make it!!!!

My hair is thick and dark so this didn't work out as I thought? I used it after lightening my hair and the red sorta turned out like an ugly orange but I tried it again and it seemed to work better! I like it but I wouldn't try again. Any suggestions please tell me! But the instructions are easy to follow and everything is nicely packaged and labelled.

The first thing i noticed when using this dye was the smell, it wasn't nearly as strong or overwhelming as other dyes that I've used in the past! The second thing i really liked about it is that unlike other brands, one box was enough for my long thick hair! The product was super easy to apply and rinsed out so quickly! I am very happy with the colour pay off (I believe my colour was dark chocolate) and it doesn't seem to be fading at all after washes! I love the smell of the conditioner it comes with too!

I tried this product quite a while ago, however I still remember that it was one of the best box dyes I have ever used. I love the fact that it contains no ammonia, which is so much better for your hair. It helps to cause less damage, and keeps the hair looking shiny and healthy. The colour I used was the dark brown, and it always had a few dimensions to it. Not sure whether this is because my natural hair has a few dimensions to it, but I always loved how it went on and looked very natural. I would definitely recommend this hair dye to anyone who wants their hair to stay healthy, and less damaged than using a product with ammonia in it. PLUS the smell is way better!! :) xx
