L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner Review

Love this product

Packaging: Really bright eye catching product Application: Really easy to apply, easy to rinse out Finish: Leaves my hair feeling smooth, shiny and frizz free, which is amazing since I straighten my hair heaps and doesn't make my hair oily

For starters, I love the packaging! Clear bottle is super handy so you can see how much product you have left. If used not in confunction with the shampoo I don't think it'd be as effective. The conditioner left my hair feeling smooth and the frizz was definitely reduced over the period of the trial.

So I have been using this conditioner for the past 2 weeks and I would say it did what the bottle say it would do. I have naturally wavy hair and from time to time it gets dry and frizz. I noticed while using this conditioner it stopped feeling dry a couple days after use and felt more thicker and looked shinny too. I would use this product again, the only thing is, it is more expense then my normal choice. So hoping it is on special I need conditioner.

I was skeptical to begin with, anything that I have tried in the past to smooth my frizz usually is very heavy on my extremely fine/thin hair but this was very light and didn't take any volume away. The scent is pleasant and the price is great! will definitely considering repurchasing.

I was looking forward to trying this product, as my hair gets a lot of frizz and flyaways from blow drying and straightening. This product was ok; it didn't adversely affect my hair in that it didn't make it oilier or too dry. My hair is quite fine, and I didn't like what the product did for this type of hair. It made my hair seem thicker and having more volume. This could be ok for some people, but it made it more difficult to manage for me. It was fine enough to run my hand through easily before and I couldn’t do this easily after using the product. I didn't notice any difference in terms of frizz or flyaways either so I didn't feel there was any benefit to counteract the harder to maintain hair. I didn’t notice any difference in shine either which I’ve seen from argan oil. I wouldn't use this product again, but it may suit someone with another hair type better.

The conditioner smells beautiful, clean natural and fragrant. I applied the conditioner to the length and tips of my hair thoroughly after squeezing out as much water as possible, I left it in for 2-3 mins then rinsed. the conditioner went on well, I felt I needed to use more than usual to get best coverage and did not find application that nice, it did not feel buttery smooth a tad watery. It rinsed out easily and smelt wonderful, my hair felt quite nice and a bit silky, it was not too much easier to brush. I found no difference in the maleability of my hair when wet. The difference was once I blow dried my hair there were a few less fly aways and left my hair quite voluminous, which for me is not good as I have plenty of volume, so ideal for people with thinner or flatter hair. My hair did not feel hydrated after, perhaps a tad dryer. it smelt nice for a couple of days

Lovely conditioner, left hair super soft and smooth. Washed out properly with leaving a horrible film. The smell was nice not overpowering like they are sometimes. I would try it again.

Partnered with the Smooth Intense Shampoo this product had an obvious and immediate impact on my hair. After it was dried there was no oily residue left as is the case in other products that boast of taming frizz. My hair stayed flat and compliant for an entire week before needing to be washed again. My only issue was the need to use an exorbitant amount of the product to fully coat my mid-lengths and ends.

I applied this conditioner quite liberally on the ends of my hair and i had noticed that it had brought a lot of shine to it. it made them so much softer and more hydrated than when i had used it alone. i definitely recommend this if your ends are lacking luster and shine.
