Elvive Conditioner

I was very lucky to get this in the last beauty vault for 2015. I needed some new hair care products. My hair is very dry from straightening. I have been looking for something to add a bit of moisture and make my hair clean.

The bottle I recieved was a 250 ml. Its packaging is simple but bright coloured which is eye catching to any buyer. The consistency is smooth with a distink light musk scent that permeates once its being used.

When I use this I shampoo and rinse then apply this. My hair feels smooth after using ut. Some dryness had gone but my ends were still a bit dry. I wasn't expecting a miracle cure but I can notice a difference in the appearance of my hair. I can comb through effortlessly. I would definitely be buying more of this. It's affordable at times when its on sale.

Soo moisturising

I love this and I got it from the beauty review vault a few months ago I think it's amazing and I got it with the shampoo and I've just been using this because it leaves my hair softer than ever and really silky. I think it's different to others because I dont need alot. And also it says it removes frizz which I think it does but I have a little friz only so I'm not sure but everything about it is greal and I think it's my favourite right now

My Best Friend

I've been using this conditioner for about a week now and it has really helped me combat my Frizz Monster. My hair is super smooth and healthy since using this. I've broken a few brushes previously trying to tame my frizzy hair and now after having a shower with this, my brush just glides through my hair and it never tangles. Even the day after conditioning my hair it still is frizz and tangle free. The product smells so good and doesn't feel "heavy" like some conditioners.

I recommend this to everybody as even if you have oily hair it help get rid of the excess oil but keeps the moisture in.

Tips: You only need the tiniest amount so about a dime size will do medium to long hair.

Conditioning goodness

I was lucky enough to grab the Loreal Elvive anti-frizz conditioner in the last vault along with the Shampoo.

What I like about this product is that, along with the shampoo the conditioner is enriched with Argan oil and has Thermo protection. Both have done wonders for my hair.

Like the shampoo I needed a conditioner that was going to help maintain my frizz to smoother locks and work with my sensitive skull without giving me dandruff. This product worked for both of my trouble areas.

The bottle is an orange, bronze colour, not see through like the shampoo bottle. I love how easy the conditioner comes out of the bottle! You also get every last drop out of it because of the way it is designed.

I wash my and condition my hair every second day. Like the shampoo I only use a small amount of conditioner (size of an old 50 cent coin). Squeezing some into the palm of my hand I was pleasantly surprised. The smell is a lot like the shampoo, for me it reminds me of apples (I don't know why lol). The conditioner itself is quite a thick cream and orange in colour.

My hair was feeling super light after washing and rinsing the shampoo out so was looking forward to see how the conditioner left my hair feeling. I left the conditioner in my hair while for 2-4 minutes before rinsing out. Even though my hair was still wet I could feel the difference. Silky and smooth the real test would be to see what it was like once dried. I didn't expect to see 'results' on the first day of washing but after a week of using this product combined with the shampoo my hair was a lot less frizzy, it was soft and smooth. My hair didn't go frizzy half way through the day like it usually did and what's better is I never ended up with dandruff from using this conditioner. It kept my skull quite hydrated as well and didn't dry it out.

I ran out recently of both the shampoo and conditioner and purchased them both from the supermarket on special for $3.99 a bottle. I'm unsure of the price when not on special but I'm sure it's a small price to pay for perfection :)

My hair and head love this product! An absolute win for me :)

L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner

I had high hopes for L'Oreal Paris Elvive Smooth Intense Conditioner. My hair is colour damaged so super dry and frizzy on the best of days. My instant thoughts, new product and lets try this on the mop. Argan Oil, Thermo Protection and Anti Frizz it should be a winner. The bottle is standout colour wise and like the design with this lid being at the bottom, no more shampoo / conditioner mix up. I loved the smell as it matches the shampoo and is not over powering. I found it lathered nicely and a little goes a long one. This one has lasted longer than my others did normally.I found it did not rinse that well and left residue irralivant of how much you scrubbed it out. Also it made the hair harder to comb as it was super knotty. This conditioning treatment was after using the matching shampoo. Unfortunately when my hair was dry I looked like a fuzz ball and required a decent coconut oil treatment to get t back under control. I noticed no reducation in the amount of de-frizz and my hair was not smooth and deeply nourished. It was not a winner for me and I would not repurchase it.

L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner

I grabbed this and the matching shampoo in the beauty vault.

I really love the description of this type, however it's not moisturizing enough for my hair.

My hair is dry and yes it's pretty frizzy and knotty,

I really thought it may calms and smooth out my hair. Smells really lovely and easily melts into my hair but it just didn't nourish my hair enough.

It still felt quite dry after my hair air dried.

I won't be repurchasing.

Elvive

This is another product I picked up from the last beauty vault and I was quite excited to try this on my crazy hair, it's not curly but if I let it air dry after iv washed it it tends to turn into a fluff ball. The conditioner it's self is a nice caramel sort of colour and it has a nice smooth silky texture which is really easy to get out of the bottle, especially when the conditioner is in one of those upside down bottles that I love as it makes it so easy to get every last drop out of.

When useing this conditioner with the matching shampoo I noticed a difference in my hair, it wasn't as silky as I would of hoped for but I guess you can't expect conditioner to work like magic.

This product was AMAZING on my 2 year old sons hair!! He has really tight ringlet curly hair and this conditioner along with the matching shampoo seamed to define his curls and stopped them going so fluffy

Nice Conditioner

I was lucky enough to get my hands on L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner in the last Beauty Review Vault.

The Conditioner comes in a bronze coloured bottle with an easy to open flip top lid. I like that the lid is flat, as the opening of bottle faces downwards and then you can capture all of the product. There is no waste.

What stood out for me was the Conditioner is enriched with Argan Oil, Thermo Protection and it's Anti Frizz.

I do not need to use a large amount of L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner in my long, thick hair. It lathers easily and rinses out of my hair leaving it to feel amazing. The Conditioner itself is a similar colour to the packaging and thick in texture. I always leave in for a couple of minutes before rinsing out.

L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner has a nice fruity/fresh smell but the fragrance does not linger in my hair.

I use the matching Shampoo before Conditioning. My hair looks shiny and there is less frizz and fly-aways, particularly around my face.

This is a good product that is readily available from Supermarkets or Pharmacies.

Tips: Use the matching Shampoo.

ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner Review

I am not a huge fan of this the reason is it simply is not rich enough it does not seem very hydrating I think this is suited to an oily hair it does help with frizz but results with me and this product are short lived. You need quite a big dollop if you have rather dry hair so unlike the shampoo a little does not seem to go a long way so it is not very good value for money the scent is not bad but its mild the conditioner seems creamy compared to the shampoo but as I said it does not feel very hydrating for the hair I like the concept of the oils and taming frizz it helps but this conditioner feels very lightweight and different in the hair than others perhaps thats why i feel you need more and it does not seem to hydrate much like the claims on the packaging say. The scent is light and fruity not strong. I would not re buy for $8.99 I would probabbly not re purchase as I favour others

A Lovely, Affordable Conditioner!

I was pleasantly surprised by the L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner! I have tried it alone, without its matching shampoo, but I love the results and definitely will consider buying it again.

The packaging is great - very simple and easy to get the product out of the bottle. It smells DELICIOUS, very sweet and fragrant. I find that this conditioner is amazing for detangling my curly hair, and can do it in seconds, whereas other brands can't. The end result is smooth, curly hair that looks lovely and smells fragrant throughout the day. Definitely like this product!

Tips: I like to leave this conditioner in for a few minutes while I shave my legs, to help it really nourish my hair.
